Sinopsis

For many people, the secularization of science is a given. the notion that science could have ever been influenced by religion while still remaining, by its definition, "science" is virtually unheard of for the mass populace of today. In this re-printed publication, the Dutch philosopher Herman Dooyeweerd (1894-1977) provides a brief but concise explanation as to the ever-present relationship between science and religion and the historical process of the supposed secularization of science, along with who bears the responsibility for our current cultural reality.

Acerca del autor

Herman Dooyeweerd (1894-1977) was born in Amsterdam to Calvinistic parents whose convictions and way of life were profoundly influenced by Abraham Kuyper, the great Dutch statesman, educator and journalist, and one of the protestant leaders through which the evangelical wing of Dutch reformed protestantism emerged. Dooyeweerd is recorded to have had a prolific career as a researcher in philosophy, during which he wrote various profound literary works such as The New Critique of Theoretical Thought, Roots of Western Culture, In the Twilight of Western Thought, and more. He is, without a doubt, one of the most important philosophers that the Netherlands has ever produced, comparable only perhaps with Baruch de Spinoza.
