Creational Theology and the History of Physical Science: The Creationist Tradition from Basil to Bohr


Add your own review!

Overview

This volume documents the role of creational theology in discussions of natural philosophy, medicine and technology from the Hellenistic period to the early 20th century. Central themes include: the comprehensibility of the world; the unity of heaven and earth; the relative autonomy of nature; and the ministry of healing. Chapters focus on Greco-Roman science, medieval Aristotelianism, early-modern science, the heritage of Issac Newton, and post-Newtonian mechanics. The text simultaneously details the persistance of tradition and the emergence of modernity, and provides the historical background for later discussions of creation and evolution.
