John Hedley Brooke offers an introduction and critical guide to one
of the most fascinating and enduring issues in the development of
the modern world: the relationship between scientific thought and
religious belief. It is common knowledge that in western societies
there have been periods of crisis when new science has threatened
established authority. The trial of Galileo in 1633 and the uproar
caused by Darwin's Origin of Species (1859) are two of the most
famous examples. Taking account of recent scholarship in the
history of science, Brooke takes a fresh look at these and similar
episodes, showing that science and religion have been mutually
relevant in so rich a variety of ways that no simple
generalizations are possible.
