"Destined to become a classic"
This book reframes the discussion between Christian theology and contemporary science, arguing that it is good both for religion and for science when Christians treat theology as their first truth discourse.
"A bold book, destined to become a classic. Cutting through the clutter of worn-out science-and-religion debates, Paul Tyson reclaims theology as the first truth discourse that tells us what science is and how it should function. Rarely have the foundations of modern science been subjected to a more penetrating critique."
--Hans Boersma, Nashotah House Theological Seminary
"'Religion and Science' is dead. Long live Christian theology of science! Tyson shows exactly why, in a brief and exemplary manner."
--John Milbank, University of Nottingham (emeritus)
"An excellent and timely book which significantly enhances our understanding of the natural sciences and their relation to theology, history, and metaphysics."
--Simon Oliver, Durham University
"Likely to become a classic text bridging several disciplines."
--Tracey Rowland, University of Notre Dame, Australia
"This book enters territory that has long been awaiting intelligent attention. Tyson is a trusty guide, navigating a minefield with secure footing in metaphysics. This book is highly original and deserves a wide readership."
--Spike Bucklow, University of Cambridge
"Represents a significant moment in the growing concern to rethink and indeed reorder the relationship between 'science' and 'religion.' In this powerful little text, Tyson clears away the myths that continue to rule the popular imagination and replaces them with lucid, theologically and metaphysically nuanced insights that resonate with undeniable truth."
--D. C. Schindler, the Pontifical John Paul II Institute
"This book equips people of faith and people of science with the right infrastructure for each to come to a true and fruitful encounter with the other. It could very well become the standard text for courses on this crucial crosspoint."
--Matthew John Paul Tan, Vianney College
