In this short masterpiece, eminent scientist and theologian John
Polkinghorne offers an accessible, yet authoritative, introduction
to the stimulating field of science and theology. After surveying
their volatile historical relationship, he leads the reader through
the whole array of questions at the nexus of the scientific and
religious quests. A lucid and lively writer, Polkinghorne provides
a marvelously clear overview of the major elements of current
science (including quantum theory, chaos theory, time, and
cosmology). He then offers a concise outline of the character of
religion and shows the joint potential of science of religion to
illumine some of the thorniest issues in theology today: creation,
the nature of knowledge, human and divine identity and agency.
Polkinghorne aptly demonstrates that a sturdy faith has nothing to
fear and much to gain from an intellectually honest appraisal of
the new horizons of contemporary science.
