About this title

Synopsis

In this critical examination of recent accounts of the nature of science and of its justification given by Kuhn, Popper, Lakatos, Laudan, and Newton-Smith, Banner contends that models of scientific rationality which are used in criticism of religious beliefs are in fact often inadequate as accounts of the nature of science. He argues that a realist philosophy of science both reflects the character of science and scientific justifications, and suggests that religious belief could be given a justification of the same sort.

Review

`The book not only seeks to uphold the place of rationality in both science and religion, it is itself a superb example of the use of rationality in this area.' Journal of Theological Studies `very clearly written and contains useful summaries of a number of important discussions' Theology `interesting and informative monograph' Times Higher Education Supplement
