Synopsis
Based on over 600 interviews and surveys of over 20,000 scientists worldwide, Secularity and Science: What Scientists Around the World Really Think About Religion tells the story of the relationship between science and religion in the lives of scientists. The book makes four key claims: there are more religious scientists then we might think; religion and science overlap in scientific work; scientists - even atheist scientists - see spirituality in science; and finally, the idea that religion and science must conflict is primarily an invention of the West.

Hardcover. Condition: new. Hardcover. Do scientists see conflict between science and faith? Which cultural factors shape the attitudes of scientists toward religion? Can scientists help show us a way to build collaboration between scientific and religious communities, if such collaborations are even possible?To answer these questions and more, the authors of Secularity and Science: What Scientists Around the World Really Think About Religion completed the mostcomprehensive international study of scientists' attitudes toward religion ever undertaken, surveying more than 20,000 scientists and conducting in-depth interviews with over 600 of them. From this wealth of data, theauthors extract the real story of the relationship between science and religion in the lives of scientists around the world. The book makes four key claims: there are more religious scientists than we might think; religion and science overlap in scientific work; scientists - even atheist scientists - see spirituality in science; and finally, the idea that religion and science must conflict is primarily an invention of the West. Throughout, the book couples nationally representative survey datawith captivating stories of individual scientists, whose experiences highlight these important themes in the data. Secularity and Science leaves inaccurate assumptions about science and religionbehind, offering a new, more nuanced understanding of how science and religion interact and how they can be integrated for the common good.
