Recenzii

This innovative volume brings together new conceptual worlds and ideas to complicate our understanding of religion, science, and technology in North America. The uniqueness of this volume is the diversity of themes and traditions it covers and it very importantly points out the need to go beyond Christianity . It can easily be called a new generation volume onscience, religion, and technology.
An amazing collection of the information that students and general readers most need in order to form their own views on religion, science, and technology in today's world. As a professor in this field, I find here exactly the topics, questions, and ethical dilemmas that make for successful learning and transformative in-class discussions.
