Willem B. Drees

Opis

This book considers the consequences of the natural sciences (physics, biology, neurosciences) for our view of the world. Willem Drees argues that religion and morality are to be understood as rooted in our evolutionary past and neurophysiological constitution. His book takes a more radical naturalist position than most on religion and science. But religion is not dismissed: religious traditions remain important as bodies of wisdom and vision.

Recenzje

'William Drees' wide-ranging and clearly structured study is a welcome - and challenging - addition … Drees' study demands, deserves and repays careful reading.' Epworth Review
