Gods Philosphers

God’s Philosophers (2010) by James Hannam – Icon Books
Available from Crappy Old Books – Slightly battered, thoroughly brainy.

Think the Middle Ages were a scientific wasteland? Think again. In God’s Philosophers, James Hannam cheerfully dismantles the myth of medieval ignorance and shines a spotlight on the monks, scholars, and misfits who laid the intellectual foundations for the Scientific Revolution. From algebra to astronomy, Hannam shows that faith and reason weren’t always enemies—they were often in awkward, robe-clad collaboration.

This 2010 Icon Books paperback edition may have been propped under a wobbly desk or two, but it’s still packed with insight, wit, and enough scholastic intrigue to make you re-evaluate everything you thought you knew about the Dark Ages.

Crappy Old Books – Smart reads in scruffy covers.
