Global Perspectives on Science and Christianity
About this book
The discussion of how science and Christianity relate to each other is a truly global one. Christianity around the world encompasses diverse sets of perspectives, ideas, and challenges. Similarly, the practice and perception of science can vary significantly from one region to another. When brought together in their global contexts we find a richness in the engagement between science and Christianity that leads to diverse questions and distinctive answers.Global Perspectives on Science and Christianity brings together scholars from six continents, hailing from disciplines of natural and social sciences, theology, history, and philosophy, to provide a unique collection of perspectives on how science and Christianity relate around the world. Tackling some issues that are seldom addressed as well as providing fresh perspectives on perennial topics, this is an important, relevant and genuinely global contribution to the discussion.
