"Scientific Perspectives on Divine Action: Twenty Years of
Challenge and Progress"is a collection of thirteen essays assessing
the scholarly contributions to the "Scientific Perspectives on
Divine Action" series, which is comprised of five volumes resulting
from international research conferences co-sponsored by the Vatican
Observatory and the Center for Theology and the Natural Sciences
between 1991 and 2000. The overarching goal of the series is to
advance the engagement of constructive theology with the natural
sciences with special attention to the theme of divine action and
to investigate the philosophical and theological elements within
science.This volume is divided into three sections: In Section One,
contributors review the history of the series and the development
of new research methodology and discuss philosophical issues raised
by the laws of nature and the limits of science; in Section Two,
authors provide philosophical analysis of specific issues in the
series; and in Section Three, contributors offer theological
analyses of specific issues. The five volumes in the series
include: "Quantum Cosmology and the Laws of Nature" (vol. 1, 1993);
"Chaos and Complexity" (vol. 2, 1995); "Molecular and Evolutionary
Biology" (vol. 3, 1998); "Neuroscience and the Person" (vol. 4,
1999); and "Quantum Mechanics "(vol. 5, 2001), and are distributed
by University of Notre Dame Press.
