The intersection of biology and religion has spawned exciting new
areas of academic research that raise issues central to
understanding our own humanity and the living world. In this
comprehensive and accessible survey, Michael L. Peterson and Dennis
R. Venema explain the engagement between biology and religion on
issues related to origins, evolution, design, suffering and evil,
progress and purpose, love, humanity, morality, ecology, and the
nature of religion itself. Does life have a chemical origin - or
must there be a divine spark? How can religious claims about divine
goodness be reconciled with widespread predation, suffering, and
death in the animal kingdom? Peterson and Venema develop a
philosophical discussion around such controversial questions. The
book situates each topic in its historical, scientific, and
theological context, making it the perfect introduction for
upper-level undergraduates, graduate students, scholars, and the
interested general reader.
