The definitive reference work on science and Christian belief How
does Christian theology relate to scientific inquiry? What are the
competing philosophies of science, and do they "work" with a
Christian faith based on the Bible? No reference work has covered
this terrain sufficiently--until now. Featuring entries from over
140 international contributors, the Dictionary of Christianity and
Science is a deeply-researched, peer-reviewed, fair-minded work
that illuminates the intersection of science and Christian belief.
In one volume, you get reliable summaries and critical analyses of
over 450 relevant concepts, theories, terms, movements,
individuals, and debates. You will find answers to your toughest
questions about faith and science, from the existence of Adam and
Eve to the age of the earth, evolution and string theory. FEATURES

today's most challenging scientific topics, including climate
change, evolution, bioethics, and much more Essays from over 140
