Great book for home schooling

This book is of great use! We are using it to learn about different people who have contributed to our society. Each person has a short summary of their lives, no more than two pages a person. But there are interesting facts about each. Beware though I'm having to simplify each page for my son so it will also serve well for his coming years in school.

Very enlightening

I found this book very interesting and encouraging--these are the fathers of science--the men who pioneered our scientific method and thought. It was encouraging to see them as recognizing the role of God in themselves and their work.

fascinating, little-known information!

Wonderful, fascinating, little-known information lies in this book! Evolutionists would have society think religion (and Christianity specifically) has only ever hindered science, yet this book shows that the best founders of our modern scientific disciplines were motivated to explore the world explicitly because of their faith in God. These men were not Christian out of the cultural norms of their respective societies, these men sincerely had a zealous faith that far exceeded their peers in their day. This books forever terminates the image of anti-scientific, Christian knuckle-draggers; a must-read.

Excellent Little Book

Some qualifications for opining to start. I have read this book and I am a public school teacher with 9 years of teaching elementary school. I have a BA in Psychology and a M Ed. This is a great little book. It is important that we understand the beliefs of the scientists as well as their backgrounds. Contrary to popular opinion, scientists aren't devoid of beliefs and everyone's beliefs influence their perspectives. This can be readily seen by perusing these reviews. Our beliefs also determine our actions which makes being certain of their veracity all the more important as they will dictate the course of our lives and our destiny. These scientists stand head and shoulders above many of their peers. It is important for all of us to understand what they believed and why they chose those beliefs. I highly recommend this book and I hope you will enjoy it as much as I did, and do every time I read it. It is a short, interesting, and fun read. Bon appetit!
