About this title

Synopsis:

While pondering a number of seemingly insoluble quandaries in the fields of both religion and science, Johnston concludes that modern science may provide an answer to some of the quandaries of religious belief, while theology may be capable of rescuing the physicists. Regarded as a sequel and commentary on the author's earlier war autobiography.
