Reviews
This excellent collection of papers was written by 12 philosophers and 14 scientists who participated in a five-year-long 'Science and Religion' series held at five major Chinese universities. These world-class scientists, philosophers, and theologians engage in a genuine dialogue in their papers based on the idea that science and religion have things in common and enough of a common universe of discourse to participate in a meaningful exchange, since science and religion not only are logically compatible when both are properly understood and described, but also are complementary. An excellent introduction explains the focus for each of the 26 areas into which the papers are grouped. These sections range from 'Has Science Really Destroyed Its Own Religious Roots?' to 'Theories and Unobservables: The Realist/Nonrealist Debate in Science and Religion.' Each paper is preceded by an abstract, and all but three of the writers are represented by three papers in a specific area. Documentation is excellent, and the second volume contains a glossary. This collection is an excellent resource for those wishing to explore the current state of dialogue between science and religion. Although a few of the papers are somewhat technical, interested general readers will find these essays very thought-provoking.

Book condition
An important factor of a second-hand book is the condition of the book. The buyer may not be surprised. Always mention damages or defects. We use a system with 3 stars:
The book is acceptable: you have used it to study and made notes and markings – but everything is still readable. The cover and pages are in good condition.
The book still looks good: there are a few notes in it and you marked it. There are hardly any signs of use on the cover and pages.
The book is (almost) new: you have not written or marked in it. There are no signs of use on the cover and pages.
