This book delves into the historical relationship between religion and science, examining how the conflict between the two has shaped human history. The author traces the roots of the scientific method back to the inductive reasoning employed by early Christian scholars and argues that the pursuit of knowledge should not be divorced from our spiritual lives. By exploring the work of scientists and theologians throughout history, the book reveals the ways in which science and religion can complement and inform one another. Ultimately, it posits that a holistic approach to understanding the world, one that encompasses both the rational and the spiritual, is essential for human flourishing and the pursuit of truth.
