`a welcome addition to a meagre literature on the relationship between theology and science in the early centuries of the Christian era ... This is a very good study ... It is clearly and elegantly written and presented' Metascience 'Scott provides us a distinctive perspective on Christian attitudes to the natural world and awareness of the natural sciences. Scott shows a solid grasp of classical and Patristic sources and secondary literature.' Joseph W. Trigg, Journal of Early Christian Studies, 1:2, June 1993 'a most useful piece of work ... Scott's exposition of Origen's doctrine is generally ezxcellent. He has also much that is useful to say on Origen's views on the resurrection body.' John Dillon, Trinity College, Dublin 'This is a very good study ... It is clearly and elegantly written and presented.' Barry Brundell, Metascience, Issue 3, '93
