Religion and science are arguably the two most powerful social
forces in the world today. But where religion and science were once
held to be compatible, many people now perceive them to be in
conflict. This unique book provides the best available introduction
to the burning debates in this controversial field. Examining the
defining questions and controversies, renowned expert Philip
Clayton presents the arguments from both sides, asking readers to
decide for themselves where they stand: * science or religion, or
science and religion? * history and philosophy of science * the
role of scientific and religious ethics - modifying genes,
extending life, and experimenting with human subjects * religion
and the environmental crisis * the future of science vs. the future
of religion. Thoroughly updated throughout, this second edition
explores religious traditions from around the world and provides
insights from across the sciences, making this book essential
reading for all those wishing to come to their own understanding of
some of the most important debates of our day.
