Re-Vision: A New Look at the Relationship between Science and Religion

Re-Vision addresses four issues that lie at the crux of the relationship between science and religion―the origin of the cosmos and creation in Genesis; evolutionary theory and God’s action in the world; genes and human freedom; and whether intelligent design is good science and/or good theology. This book includes commentary on each of these issues from three scientists, a philosopher, and a theologian. The contributors represent a wide variety of worldviews and beliefs, and readers are encouraged to use their thoughts as springboards for personal reactions and conclusions.

Clifford Chalmers Cain is Harrod-C.S. Lewis Professor of Religious Studies at Westminster College of Missouri. He is interested in contemporary religious thought, the interface between science and religion, and the contributions of world religions to ecology. His recent trilogy in environmental theology―An Ecological Theology, Down to Earth, and Many Heavens, One Earth―is now joined by this seventh book, Re-Vision.
