Excerpt from Catholic Churchmen in Science: Sketches of the Lives of Catholic Ecclesiastics Who Were Among the Great Founders in Science Most of the second series of sketches of Cath olic churchmen have appeared in various period icals during the past few years. My thanks are here given to The Ecclesiastical Review, The American Catholic Quarterly, The Ave Maria, 5 t. John's Quarterly, and The Month (london), for permission to republish papers which ap peared in their pages and which are here repub lished after careful revision and many additions. The article on Guy De Chauliac formed the basis of a lecture before the Johns Hopkins Historical Club on old-time Medical Education. A large portion of the article on Pope John XXI, the Ophthalmologist Pope, appeared in Ophthalmol ogy, a quarterly journal of ophthalmic science.
