Kurzbeschreibung
The underlying assumption of Science and Religion in Dialogue is the belief that scientific and religious practices of inquiry can, in fact, be viewed as logically compatible, complementary, and mutually supportive. Edited by philosopher Melville Y. Stewart, this wide-ranging two-volume collection represents the most cutting edge thinking on topics at the convergence of faith and science. Thought provoking and enlightening, Science and Religion in Dialogue offers serious non-specialist readers the most current thinking on the complementary truths of science and faith.
