Reviews
For this exceptional collection, Haag, Peterson, and Spezio have brought together 55 articles authored by 60 scholars to create what is probably the best single volume anthology on science and religion currently available. These essays, and the editors' approach, represent the next generation of studies in science and religion. ...A paperback edition, when issued, would make an excellent textbook. - C. D. Kay, Wofford College in CHOICE This volume is carefully designed and the articles have been imaginatively selected and commissioned. It is especially appealing for people interested in moving beyond the (perhaps tired) categories and debates that dominate extant reference works. Each group of essays contains several that move beyond the dominant framework and push into non-western traditions and even non-religious movements. This is a genuinely useful reference work that could easily serve as a key text in a class on science-religion at the advanced undergraduate college level and even in graduate schools. - Wesley J. Wildman, Boston University, USA This book is an essential resource for those hesitant about engaging in the field of science and religion. It covers a variety of religious perspectives on different topics and ranges across difficult areas of theoretical or practical public and policy debate. It will challenge and inform the reader. - Celia Deane-Drummond, University of Notre Dame, USA
