Synopsis:

This book presents a systematic exploration of contemporary perspectives in physics, evolutionary biology and psychology as they relate to theological descriptions of the universe, humanity and consciousness. Contributors examine such issues as theological responses to the ecological crisis; how science is treated and valued in education; the possible development of the science and religion debate in the 21st century. A comprehensive textbook for the student, this title includes periodic exercises to test understanding and encourage discussion of the different topics, and suggestions for further reading. Contributors include Celia Deane-Drummond, Paul D. Murray, Michael Robert Negus, Lawrence Osborn, Michael Poole, Jacqui Stewart and Fraser Watts.

Review: "I will certainly use it again and recommend it to anyone who seriously wishes to become acquainted with the basic lay of the land in the religion-science debate."
