The feel-good place to buy books
The Scientific and the Divine by James A Arieti
Examines the perennial issues that keep science and religion at arm's length, clarifies those issues, and fits them into an historical framework-from Plato, to Aquinas, to today's thinkers.
This is a clear and thoughtful discussion on the science/religion relationshipIt is historically sensitive, yet fully up to date. It is balanced, yet does not hesitate to wade into major controversies. I recommend the book strongly. -- Michael Ruse, Lucyle T. Werkmeister Professor of Philosophy, Florida State University
This is a scholarly book, sufficiently researched and highly readable. With the use of so many historical references, the book allows the reader enough detachment to tackle the big theological questions with a level of objectivity. It would be an ideal textbook for a survey course on the relationship between science and faith. * Research News and Opportunities In Science and Technology *
[This book] is particularly welcome because its authors tackle issues of science and religion from two unusual but informative disciplinary perspectives. * Religious Studies *
I have found no better single volume on science and religion than The Scientific and the Divine. Arieti and Wilson have brilliantly and succinctly distilled the wisdom of the ages into a highly readable text that should be adopted by professors teaching courses on this most compelling and important subject. -- Michael Shermer, publisher of Skeptic magazine and author of Why People Believe Weird Things
