Science in the Franciscan Order: A Historical Sketch by John M. Lenhart is a comprehensive exploration of the role of science in the Franciscan Order throughout history. The book provides a detailed overview of the Franciscan Order and its contribution to the development of science during the Middle Ages and the Renaissance. It delves into the lives and works of famous Franciscan scientists such as Roger Bacon, William of Ockham, and John Duns Scotus, and their contributions to fields such as physics, mathematics, and astronomy. The book also discusses the Franciscan approach to science, which emphasized the importance of observation and experimentation, as well as the integration of science and faith. This historical sketch is an excellent resource for anyone interested in the history of science, the Franciscan Order, or the intersection of science and religion.1924. Franciscan Studies Volume 1.
