Sinopsis

The debate between divine action, or faith, and natural selection, or science, is garnering tremendous interest. This book ventures well beyond the usual, contrasting American Protestant and atheistic points of view, and also includes the perspectives of Jews, Muslims, and Roman Catholics. It contains arguments from the various proponents of intelligent design, creationism, and Darwinism, and also covers the sensitive issue of how to incorporate evolution into the secondary school biology curriculum. Comprising contributions from prominent, award-winning authors, the book also contains dialogs following each chapter to provide extra stimulus to the readers and a full picture of this “hot” topic, which delves into the fundamentals of science and religion.

Críticas

This volume should be a mainstay of research institutes and think tanks on all sides of the issue. Because of its size, it lends itself to use as a reference book with easy access to plenty of articles from many points of view. The volume will be a nice addition to the library of researchers working in this area, and it could be used as a textbook for advanced undergraduate and graduate courses in the history or philosophy of religion, theology, metaphysics, history and philosophy of science, or special topics courses on the E/C/ID issue ... I commend the volume editors for taking on this laudable project and publicly setting a precedent for how open-minded, intelligent, and progressive debate on sensitive topics of public, academic, and educational import should go. --Skeptical Inquirer
