The Popes and Science, James J. Walsh, 1911, Knights of Columbus Edition

The Popes and Science: The History of the Papal Relations to Science During the Middle Ages and Down to Our Own Time is written by James J. Walsh, K.C., St.G., M.D., Ph.D., Dean and Professor at Fordham University School of Medicine. Published by Fordham University Press in 1911, this is the Knights of Columbus Edition, printed in a run of 30,000 copies for popular distribution.

Walsh challenges the prevailing narrative that the Catholic Church suppressed scientific inquiry, marshaling evidence from medieval university records, hospital history, and anatomical practice to argue the opposite.

Crimson cloth hardcover with Fordham University Press gilt medallion on front board and decorative spine panels; binding firm, cloth shows light shelf wear consistent with age. Please review all photos carefully, and email me with any questions.
