But the interaction of Catholics with science has been - and is - far more complex and positive than that depicted in the legend of the Galileo affair. Understanding the natural world has always been a strength of Catholic thought and research - from the great theologians of the Middle Ages to the present day - and science has been a hallmark of Catholic education for centuries. \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ci\u003eCatholicism and Science\u003c\/i\u003e, a volume in the \u003cb\u003eGreenwood Guides to Science and Religion\u003c\/b\u003e series, covers all aspects of the relationship of science and the Church: How Catholics interacted with the profound changes in the physical sciences (natural philosophy) and biological sciences (natural history) during the Scientific Revolution; how Catholic scientists reacted to the theory of evolution and their attempts to make evolution compatible with Catholic theology; and the implications of Roman Catholic doctrinal and moral teachings for neuroscientific research, and for investigation into genetics and cloning. \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003eThe volume includes primary source documents, a glossary and timeline of important events, and an annotated bibliography of the most useful works for further research\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Peter M.
