Mikael Stenmark (Professor of Philosophy of Religion, Uppsala
University Uppsala University (Swedish Uppsala universitet) is a public university in Uppsala, Sweden, 64 kilometres (40 miles) north-northwest of Stockholm.[1] Founded in 1477, it claims to be the oldest university in Scandinavia, outdating the University of Copenhagen , Sweden) introduces the reader to two disparate and seemingly
opposing perspectives on the relationship of religion and science. The
first is the view that there is no limit to the competency of science to
explain ourselves and the world in which we exist. The second view is
that religion has a prober role to play in shaping scientific inquiry
and interpretation. Professor Stenmark accessibly presents the central
issues of the on-going debate between these two views and offers a
"multidimensional model" of science and religion that does not
automatically give dominance or priority to either perspective.
Thoughtful and thought provoking reading, How To Relate Science And
Religion is especially recommended to the the attention of
non-specialist general readers with an interest in a reconciliation
between the two most influential approaches to discovering and
explaining the world in terms of logic and of faith, of experimentation
and revelation.
