Unlikely Allies is an excellent contribution to the science-religion conversation, and should be read by believers and doubters alike. The book is remarkable for its clarity and even-handedness. The myth of a structural conflict between science and religion is exposed with evidence and cheerfulness. On the other hand, parochial Christian overconfidence in these matters is also challenged. I learnt a lot. - John Dickson, Author and historian, Distinguished Fellow in Public Christianity, Ridley College, Melbourne This fascinating historical survey challenges various religious and non-religious claims about the roots of science. It makes a nuanced case that monotheism, including Trinitarian thinking, was a significant element in the philosophical and cultural crucible that resulted in science as we know it today. - Chris Mulherin, Executive Director, ISCAST-Christians in Science and Technology
