Mathematics from a Christian perspective
With respect for the history and ever-changing applications of
mathematicalprinciples, James Bradley and Russell Howell, along
with a team of fellowscholars, invite readers to consider the rich
intersection of mathematics andChristian belief. Citizens of the
twenty-first century generally believe that mathematics is all
about numbers and formulas, with no religious significance--an
attitude that belies the faith-based work of thinkers from Plato to
Newton.It is time to reawaken our sensitivity to the vital
spiritual matters raised bythe study of mathematics, a discipline
that demands profound thought andhelps us understand the beauty and
the order of our physical world.
Mathematics Through the Eyes of Faith explores questions such
as:
What is the relationship between chance and divine
providence?
Do concepts like infinity point beyond themselves to a higher
reality?
Is mathematics discovered or invented, and why is it effective
in the sciences?
This comprehensive work, one in a series of cosponsored by the
Council for Christian Colleges & Universities, is designed to
help students and teachers understand how mathematics has evolved
and how the interplay of mathematics and Christian belief can
enrich the study of both.
