Belief in God in an Age of Science

John Polkinghorne is a major figure in debates over the compatibility of science and religion. Internationally known as both a theoretical physicist and a theologian - the only ordained member of the Royal Society - Polkinghorne brings qualifications to his inquiry into the possibilities of believing in God in an age of science. In this book, the author focuses on the collegiality between science and theology, contending that these intellectual cousins are both concerned with interpreted experience and with the quest for truth about reality. He argues that scientific and theological inquiries are parallel.
