This book brings together the latest research in education in
relation to science and religion. Leading international scholars
and practitioners provide vital insights into the underlying
debates and present a range of practical approaches for teaching.
Key themes include the origin of the universe, the theory of
evolution, the nature of the human person, the nature of science
and Artificial Intelligence. These are explored in a range of
international contexts. The book provides a valuable resource for
teachers, students and researchers in the fields of education,
science, religious education and the growing specialist field of
science and religion. Science and Religion in Education is a
compelling read for current and future generations of academic
researchers and teachers who wish to explore the fascinating
intersect between science education and religious studies. The
research findings and insights presented by these international
scholars offer new dimensions on contemporary practice. - Vaille
Dawson, Professor of Science Education, University of Western
Australia Science and Religion in Education offers a fascinating
and diverse collection of chapters surveying the current state of
thinking about how science and religion can be understood in
education. The book offers a wealth of thought-provoking material
for anyone interested in the natures of science and religion, their
relationship(s), or their representation within the curriculum. -
Professor Keith Taber, University of Cambridge Science education
and religious education are uncomfortable bedfellows. This book,
written in part as a response to the - perhaps too clear - accounts
of Ian Barbour, provides suitably nuanced pictures of how science
and religion are dealt with in schools. Whatever the views of
specialists, young people 'receive' an education in both science
and religion: hearing their voices is refreshing in such a serious
academic account. - Julian Stern, Professor of Education and
Religion, York St John University Humans have long endeavored to
make sense of the world often using science and religion. Yet,
these two great traditions are frequently seen as incompatible.
This useful volume features thoughtful contributions from experts
whose work straddles the divide and provides educators with
arguments, engaging strategies and historical perspectives to help
build a bridge and allow a fruitful discussion in schools. -
William F. McComas, Distinguished Professor of Science Education,
University of Arkansas Equal parts critical examination of existing
models for the relationship between science and religion, scholarly
exposition of newer models, and insights toward practical
application in classrooms, this book is an invaluable resource for
science and religion educators. If you have been thinking it is
time we looked beyond Barbour's taxonomy, you will want to read
this book. If you have not, I implore you to read this book. -

This is a book that appeals to all thinking people who seek
