Christian Faith and Natural Philosophy

Written by Nancy R. Pearcey and Charles B. Thaxton

This Turning Point book surveys the development of science and its historic and current relationship to Christianity, and reintroduces believers to their rich intellectual heritage.

Review

The authors, both science writers, argue that science in the West has progressed because of, rather that in spite of, Christian faith, since belief in an ordered universe, governed by God-given laws, was essential for its advance. The authors show a good grasp of both science and theology, something rare these days, although, as the authors show, not quite so rare among the earlier scientists. This is a well-presented and much-needed contribution to the discussion about the so-called conflict between religion and science, although it is perplexing that Stanley Jaki's The Savior of Science (Regnery Gateway, 1988), which already made the same point, and at a more sophisticated level, is not mentioned. For lay readers and specialists alike. - Augustine J. Curley, Newark Abbey, N.J. (Copyright 1994 Reed Business Information, Inc.)
