Holy Scientists tells the story of several of the remarkable men and women who have made profound contributions to science without experiencing any conflict with their Catholic faith.

Radio-astronomer and Catholic priest Fr Douglas McGonagle doesn’t shy away from the controversial issues: he refutes the idea that faith and science have any innate incompatibilities, demystifies the whole Galileo versus the Church episode, and reveals the remarkable work of some unambiguously Catholic scientists: Nicholas Copernicus (astronomer and Canon to the Bishop of Warmia), Sr Miriam Michael Stimson, O.P. (chemist and Dominican nun), and Mgr Georges Lemaître (astronomer and priest) before asking the question: could God be calling you to be a scientist?
