Rezensionen

Praise for the previous edition of Science and Religion:

(Network)
"A first rate introduction to the field."

(Choice)
"McGrath discusses clearly and methodically the various issues related to the field ... Fair and objective."

(Publishers Weekly)
"A useful starting point for those entering the study of science and religion."

A wonderfully clear and readable introduction to key issues in science and religion. McGrath is uniquely qualified to write on this topic, and his mastery of the field is apparent on every page of this excellent volume.

--Peter Harrison, Harris Manchester College, Oxford

"Kudos to scientist-theologian Alister McGrath for this accessible and well-informed overview of science-faith dialogue, from yesterday's Copernican revolution to today's psychology of religion, and for his vision of a natural theology that helps make sense of what science observes."

David G. Myers, Hope College
