The relationship between science and religion has regained interest
in the fields of history of science, social studies of science, and
religious studies. An anthropological inquiry into this
relationship takes a different turn from a philosophical or
epistemological approach. An important contribution of an
ethnographic understanding of science and Islam is the ability to
generate a cultural critique of philosophical and religious
assertions. This book examines how Muslim scientists and engineers,
in the global context in which Islam has become an ingredient of
identity discourses, are grappling with competing discourses to
create new technoscientific outlooks.
