Truth about Science and Religion: From the Big Bang to Neuroscience

Autor Fraser Fleming
en Limba Engleză Paperback – 30 iun 2017
Religion has influenced the development of science over the past two millennia. The Truth about Science and Religion tells the story of their interaction. The book examines the origin of the universe, evolutionary processes, Christian beliefs, the history of science, what being human really means, and what science and religion have to say about these ideas. The Truth about Science and Religion is designed to help explore personal views on science and religion, offering questions for discussion at the end of each chapter. The book provides the historical and scientific background and the philosophical insight needed to think through issues of science and religion and their influences on personal beliefs. Metaphors, analogies, and comparisons are used to simplify complex topics so that any reader can engage with the key concepts. Unlike other books in this field, The Truth about Science and Religion follows a chronological scheme, treating increasingly personal topics as the book moves through cosmology, evolution, the life of Jesus, and the lives of several great scientists to regain a united view of science and religion in today's world.

Notă biografică

Fraser Fleming (1964-) was born in Waipawa, New Zealand. He moved to Canada after his undergraduate degree to obtain a PhD in organic chemistry. An intense desire to understand how science and religion might both be true developed into a life-long pursuit during his graduate education. For twenty years he taught chemistry, and occasionally science and religion, at Duquesne University. Then for two years, he served as a Program Director in the Division of Chemistry at the National Science Foundation. Although his primary research is focused on developing new reactions of use in preparing pharmaceuticals, he has taught several courses on science and religion including a study abroad course Big Bang to Modern Man: A History of Science and the Influence of Religion. He has given presentations on the intersection of science and religion and has taught numerous classes on Christian topics at local churches. He is currently a Professor of Organic Chemistry and Head of the Department of Chemistry at Drexel University in Philadelphia.
