商品簡介
The two volumes collect 70 papers from a series of annual conferences at five Chinese universities from 2005 to 2009 discussing the relationship between Western science and the religion of Judaism and Christianity. Scholars from natural and social sciences and from religion and philosophy consider such matters as whether science has really destroyed its own religious roots, the interplay of science and religious knowledge regarding evolution, science and theology as faithful human activities, belief in God, stewardship and economic harmony, Darwin and intelligent design, time and open theism, physics and scientific materialism, biotechnology and human dignity, and the realist/non-realist debate in science and religion. The contributors are from the US except one from Canada and another from Scotland. The two volumes are paged and indexed together. Annotation c2010 Book News, Inc., Portland, OR (booknews.com)
