Summary

Summary

Professor John C. Lennox defends the legitimacy of a Christian worldview in light of the latest science.

“In this accessible and engaging introduction, [John Lennox] guides us through the great debates about science and faith, and offers incisive assessments of the issues.” Alister McGrath, Professor of Science and Religion, University of Oxford

Is the rigorous pursuit of scientific knowledge really compatible with a sincere faith in God?

Building on the arguments put forward in God’s Undertaker: Has Science Buried God?, Prof John Lennox examines afresh the plausibility of a Christian theistic worldview in the light of some of the latest developments in scientific understanding. Prof Lennox focuses on the areas of evolutionary theory, the origins of life and the universe, and the concepts of mind and consciousness to provide a detailed and compelling introduction to the science and religion debate. He also offers his own reasoning as to why he continues to be convinced by a Christian approach to explaining these phenomena.

Robust in its reasoning, but respectful in tone, this book is vital reading for anyone exploring the relationship between science and God.

Editorial Reviews

“Anyone who has understood the immense difficulties that reductionism creates in science must be impressed with the care with which the author outlines and dissects the arguments. You don’t have to be a theist to benefit from the book. Come to it with an open mind, and enjoy its challenges.” Denis Noble, Emeritus Professor, University of Oxford, CBE, FRS
“Engagingly written…Lennox gives a totally unique view of the physical and logical universe from his perspective as a mathematician and a Christian.” Cheryl E. Praeger, Emeritus Professor of Mathematics, University of Western Australia
