 Did you know the science behind genetics was first discovered by a Catholic priest? How about the process of pasteurization, which we rely on to keep milk from spoiling quickly, which was developed by a devout Catholic? Even Copernicus, who first postulated a heliocentric universe, was Catholic. Unfortunately, faith and science are often seen as incompatible, but in reality, they're not. Pope Saint John Paul II wrote that faith and science each can draw the other into a wider world, a world in which both can flourish. Enter the brand new series, The Foundations of Science, which introduces children to the wonders of the natural world in light of God's providential care over creation. This eight-part series covers an extensive scope of scientific studies, from animals and plants to the galaxies of outer space, the depths of the ocean, cells and organisms, the curiosities of chemistry, and the marvels of our planet. Still more, it reveals the intrinsic order found beneath all creation and chronicles many of the Church's contributions to science throughout history. This series features everything your child needs to know to form a solid foundation of scientific knowledge, from key topics and terminology to fun facts and trivia, and biblical, historical, and philosophical connections that lead the inquiring mind back to our Creator and His Church. And to help children engage with their learning, all of this fascinating information is presented in a beautiful, practical design that they won't want to put down. To accompany each of the eight books in this amazing series, we've also produced eight 12-part video series, hosted by the editor of The Foundations of Science. But unlike any science videos you may find elsewhere, these videos are designed to help your child develop their spiritual life by drawing clever and memorable insights about our faith from the scientific topics presented in their text. Ultimately, Foundations of Science aligns perfectly with the mission of TAN Academy, educating children, forming families. It's no secret that the secular world attempts to use science as a weapon against religion, yet science belongs to God. Reclaim a would-be weapon of the faithless by educating your children to see science as a useful instrument in better coming to know and serve the Lord. Foundations of Science explores creation without losing sight of the purpose of creation, and in doing so, points to man's ultimate purpose of union with God in heaven.
