SUMMARY:
From the staff at Bob Enyart Live: "Happy Atheists Day!"
* God's Philosophers & James Hannam: Subtitled, How the Medieval World Laid the Foundations of Modern Science, join Bob Enyart as he enjoys this transatlantic interview with James Hannam, author of God's Philosophers! Did the medieval world believe the Earth was flat? Who gets the blame for retarding scientific progress for 1500 years, the Christian church, or pagan Greek philosophers?
* Bonus: Hannam has agreed to return to BEL soon to discuss his belief in theistic evolution with Bob, who rejects evolution and advocates special creation and a young earth!
* Rave Reviews: Here's a sampling of the reviews for God's Philosophers:
"...this wonderful book. With an engaging fervour, James Hannam has set about rescuing the reputation of a bunch of half-forgotten thinkers, and he shows how they paved the way for modern science." London's Sunday Mail
“A spirited jaunt through centuries of scientific development… captures the wonder of the medieval world: its inspirational curiosity and its engaging strangeness.” London Times
“This book contains much valuable material summarised with commendable no-nonsense clarity… James Hannam has done a fine job of knocking down an old caricature.” London's Sunday Telegraph
“Hannam, the liveliest of guides, makes enjoyable reading out of some seriously dusty history and difficult ideas.” The Scotsman
“Here, in short, is a readable book, aimed at an intelligent but ignorant layman. You'll enjoy it.” London's Daily Telegraph
“A very useful general survey of a difficult topic, and a robust defence of an unfairly maligned age.” Britain's The Spectator
