Books
Charting an epic journey through six centuries of history, 'God's Philosophers' brings back to light the discoveries of neglected geniuses like John Buridan, Nicole Oresme and Thomas Bradwardine. It also puts into context the contributions of more familiar figures like Roger Bacon, St Thomas Aquinas and William of Ockham.
