God and the Book of Nature develops theological views of the
natural sciences in light of the recent theological turn in
science-and-religion scholarship and the ‘science-engaged
theology’ movement. Centred around the Book of Nature metaphor,
it brings together contributions by theologians, natural
scientists, and philosophers based in Europe and North America.
They provide an exploration of complementary (and even contesting)
readings of the Book of Nature, particularly in light of the vexing
questions that arise around essentialism and unity in the field of
science and religion. Taking an experimental and open-ended
approach, the volume does not attempt to unify the readings into a
single ‘plot’ that defines the Book of Nature, still less a
single ‘theology of nature’, but instead it represents a
variety of hermeneutical stances. Overall the book embraces a
constructive theological attitude towards the modern sciences, and
makes significant contributions to the research literature in
science and religion.
