Recenzje

'This book is an excellent survey of the divine action field, with a polemical edge. I found it very helpful in addressing head-on some issues which I have found faintly disquieting for decades. I recommend this book to anyone with an interest in science and faith.' Peter Haslehurst, Anabaptism Today
