John Polkinghorne, an international figure known both for his
contributions to the field of theoretical elementary particle
physics and for his work as a theologian, has over the years filled
a bookshelf with writings devoted to specific topics in science and
religion. In this new book, he undertakes for the first time a
survey of all the major issues at the intersection of science and
religion, concentrating on what he considers the essential insights
for each. Clearly and without assuming prior knowledge, he
addresses causality, cosmology, evolution, consciousness, natural
theology, divine providence, revelation, and scripture. Each
chapter also provides references to his other books in which more
detailed treatments of specific issues can be found.
For those who are new to what Polkinghorne calls "one of the most
significant interdisciplinary interactions of our time," this
volume serves as an excellent introduction. For readers already
familiar with John Polkinghorne's books, this latest is a welcome
reminder of the breadth of his thought and the subtlety of his
approach in the quest for truthful understanding.
