Description

Tom McLeish explores the intersection of science and faith in this thought-provoking book, which draws on ancient texts such as the Book of Job to make the case for science as a deeply human activity.

The author challenges conventional assumptions about the relationship between science and religion, arguing that both scientific and theological worldviews are interconnected. By examining stories from medieval, patristic, classical, and biblical sources, McLeish develops a new approach to understanding the role of science in our lives.

With its unique blend of historical and philosophical insights, Faith and Wisdom in Science offers a fresh perspective on the place of science within our cultural landscape. It has implications for education, decision-making on science and technology, our relationship with the environment, and how both religious and secular communities engage with science.
