Summary

The frontier between science and theology has seen much cross-border traffic and the occasional border war. Scientist and priest John Polkinghorne lucidly and accessibly explains the common approaches and what each side has to offer the other. Despite pockets of skepticism and misunderstanding on both sides, Polkinghorne shows, integration of their respective findings remains a viable goal, and exciting vistas can open for both fields.
