This volume situates itself within the context of the rapidly
growing interdisciplinary field that is dedicated to the study of
the complex interactions between science and religion. It presents
an innovative approach insofar as it addresses the Eurocentrism
that is still prevalent in this field. At the same time it reveals
how science develops in the space that emerges between the 'local'
and the 'global'. The volume examines a range of themes central to
the interaction between science and religion: 'Eastern' thought
within 'Western' science and religion and vice versa, and revisits
thinkers who sought to integrate 'Eastern' and 'Western' thinking.
It studies Zen Buddhism and its relation to psychotherapy, Islamic
science, Vedantic science, atheism in India, and Darwinism,
offering in turn new perspectives on a variety of approaches to
nature. Part of the Science and Technology Studies series, this
volume brings together original perspectives from major scholars
from across disciplines and will be of great interest to scholars
and students of science and technology studies, history of science,
philosophy of science, religious studies, and sociology.
