Description

Explore the universe with the Pope's astronomer.
Journey through the awe-inspiring cosmos with celebrated Jesuit astronomer Br. Guy Consolmagno in his masterful exploration of the universe and our place in it.

To turn each page of A Jesuit's Guide to the Stars is to appreciate anew the graceful alignment of God and science. Br. Guy leads the way as we discover the unbroken connection between Scripture, tradition, and humankind's quest to see God in all things--even, or maybe especially, in the stars.

Brought to life with more than 70 stunning images of the cosmos, Br. Guy seamlessly integrates his studies and knowledge as a scientist with his personal journey as a man of faith. His uniquely inspiring story connects the heavens to the earth, the past to the present, and faith to science.

Whether you are a curious stargazer, an amateur astronomer, or someone seeking meaning in a universe that can seem impersonal, A Jesuit's Guide to the Stars will show you that the cosmos is a beautiful subject to contemplate and a joyful way to find God.
