In recent years, the debate over science, reason, and religion has
reached a peak (or a high plateau, depending on your perception of
time scales) of intensity, breadth, and confrontational vigor.
Hundreds of Web sites, blogs, and forums have sprung up, enabling
the debate to rage day-to-day. But people will always want points
of view to be encapsulated in portable form: books.
Faith in the Unseen is a contribution to the debate. Its author,
Dr. Rashid Seyal, who is a consultant cardiologist with numerous
books on cardiology and religion under his belt, approaches the
debate on the "faith" side as a religious man (he is a Muslim) with
a strong background in science. The title of his book places the
emphasis on the key issue that stands between the scientific
atheist side and the faith side: evidence, and the absence thereof.
For fundamentalist believers, evidence (other than what is written
in holy books) is simply not an issue. However, for the rational
religious believer, it is a pivotal point and must be
rationalized.
It is divided into substantial chapters, each dealing with a
major subject of faith and/or reason, and each chapter is
subdivided into sections, which discuss various detailed aspects or
examples, including death, the afterlife, and the philosophy of
life.
