"This new edition is unchanged. It [is] more readily available in Europe and North America." "Science and Christian Belief, "April 2006
'This books does exactly what it says on the cover - and does it remarkably well...it is a pleasure (and an education) to have the issues put into historical context. A most helpful and readable book'--Sanford Lakoff "Theology "
'These chapters, covering developments before 1900, are divided into sub-sections, each concerned with the life and work of a particular scientist. This injects biographical interest and makes for absorbing reading.' 'In comparison with many other books on Science and Religion, this is an enjoyable and easy read.' '...this book gives a good overall orientation to the subject and provides pointers for further reading.'--Sanford Lakoff
"I found his treatments of both sciences [physics and biology] equally and admirably clear, economical and accurage. The same excellences are present in his treament of philosophy of science, and most of those of theology...This pacy little book... abounds in insights.." ESSSAT-News March 2005--Sanford Lakoff "Esssat News "
