Abstract
Many teachers have recognized the need for a collection of short biographical essays on Christians who contributed to science. This inexpensive book makes an important contribution to the task. Graves has embraced the widest possible chronology by drawing on individuals over a 1600 year period. These biographical sketches offer candid two to four page snapshots of real people virtues and faults packing a large amount of information in a short space, enough for the instructor to present a picture in the limited time available in the classroom.
