Book Description
This book is a clear, concise guide to Alister McGrath's ground breaking three-volume work A scientific theology. McGrath himself here summarizes his major project and sketches out its implications for many aspects of Christian doctrine. He then explores all of the major themes of his three-volume work, including the legitimacy of a scientific theology, the purpose and place of natural theology, the foundations of theological realism, the failure of classic foundationalism, the nature of revelation, and the place of metaphysics in theology.

Book Description
Alister McGrath's work on the relationship between Science and Theology makes the most notable contribution to the subject written by an evangelical in recent history. McGrath holds earned doctorates in both science and theology, and his three volume set, A Scientific Theology, is the culmination of three decades of his work on the subject. In this book, James K. Dew explores McGrath's contribution to the issue and highlights the benefits of adopting a critical realist perspective such as his own. In particular, Dew argues that McGrath's approach helps establish a unified theory of knowledge, and holds significant advantages for scientists and theologians alike.

Book Description
In this short masterpiece, eminent scientist and theologian John Polkinghorne offers an accessible, yet authoritative, introduction to the stimulating field of science and theology. After surveying their volatile historical relationship, he leads the reader through the whole array of questions at the nexus of the scientific and religious quests. A lucid and lively writer, Polkinghorne provides a marvelously clear overview of the major elements of current science (including quantum theory, chaos theory, time, and cosmology). He then offers a concise outline of the character of religion and shows the joint potential of science of religion to illumine some of the thorniest issues in theology today: creation, the nature of knowledge, human and divine identity and agency. Polkinghorne aptly demonstrates that a sturdy faith has nothing to fear and much to gain from an intellectually honest appraisal of the new horizons of contemporary science.

Book Description
How do science and theology interact? What can be gained by exploring Christian theology using the insights of the natural sciences? Can a synergy be found? Is there a defensible natural theology within the scope and framework of a revealed God? In the three volumes of A Scientific Theology (T&T Clark, 2001-2003), Alister E. McGrath produced a groundbreaking work proposing a mutual cross-fertilization of ideas and approaches: a scientific theology based on the present and past relationships between Christian theology and the natural sciences. In The Science of God, Professor McGrath provides a summary of and introduction to the major themes examined in the series. He outlines all the main ideas on Christian theology both philosophically and historically, discussing their relationships with the natural sciences. This unique approach results not simply in a traditional introduction to systematic theology, nor in an introduction to the science versus religion debate, but in a highly readable guide to Christian theology as a systematic theology enriched by the natural sciences, conceived and presented as a legitimate and coherent intellectual discipline with its own sense of identity, place and purpose.
