Description
"In this accessible and engaging introduction, [John Lennox] guides us through the great debates about science and faith, and offers incisive assessments of the issues." Alister McGrath, Professor of Science and Religion, University of Oxford
Is the rigorous pursuit of scientific knowledge really compatible with a sincere faith in God?
Building on the arguments put forward in God's Undertaker: Has Science Buried God?, Prof John Lennox examines afresh the plausibility of a Christian theistic worldview in the light of some of the latest developments in scientific understanding. Prof Lennox focuses on the areas of evolutionary theory, the origins of life and the universe, and the concepts of mind and consciousness to provide a detailed and compelling introduction to the science and religion debate. He also offers his own reasoning as to why he continues to be convinced by a Christian approach to explaining these phenomena.
Robust in its reasoning, but respectful in tone, this book is vital reading for anyone exploring the relationship between science and God.
Advance Praise
“In this accessible and engaging introduction, John Lennox guides us through the great debates about science and faith, and offers incisive assessments of the issues.” - Alister McGrath, Professor of Science and Religion, University of Oxford
“In a century when all the fields of science and technology converge in biology, the effort to confront the deeper meaning of life from a historical and philosophical perspective is more relevant than ever before. This book is a timely and excellent contribution to the conversation.” - Sonia Contera, Professor of Biological Physics, University of Oxford
“John Lennox has a unique ability to integrate theology, philosophy, biology, physics and mathematics into one coherent unity, and a gift of explaining complicated matters in a simple and pedagogical way. Cosmic Chemistry is highly topical and most likely it will become an apologetic classic.” - Ola Hössjer, Professor of Mathematical Statistics, Stockholm University
“A lucid rationalization that modern scientific discoveries offer […] ample support that God and science not only mix, but that belief in a creator God is entirely consistent with, and the best explanation for, all that science teaches us about the universe and life.” - Tony Futerman, Professor of Biomolecular Sciences, Weizmann Institute of Science
