The field of "religion and science" is exploding in popularity among academics as well as the general reading public.

Adventures in the Spirit: God, World, Divine Action
ISBN: 9780800663186 / Angielski / Miękka / 2008 / 324 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 13-18 dni roboczych. Many theologians have been reconceiving the God-world relation, challenging the separation that underlay too much of Patristic and Scholastic theology. These panentheists affirm a radical indwelling of God within the world and the world within God. During the same period scientists have begun to abandon the reductionist ideology that characterized much of the modern period. Reductionism is being replaced by a new emphasis on emergence: the study of how new structures and entities arise throughout the evolutionary process and how each requires its own form of explanation. Surprisingly few...

ISBN: 9780199695270 / Angielski / Twarda / 2011 / 240 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 30 dni roboczych. Does it make sense - can it make sense - for someone who appreciates the explanatory power of modern science to continue believing in a traditional religious account of the ultimate nature and purpose of our universe? This book is intended for those who care about that question and are dissatisfied with the rigid dichotomies that dominate the contemporary debate. The extremists won't be interested - those who assume that science answers all the questions that matter, and those so certain of their religious faith that dialogue with science, philosophy, or other faith traditions seems...

Practicing Science, Living Faith: Interviews with Twelve Leading Scientists
ISBN: 9780231135764 / Angielski / Twarda / 2007 / 272 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 22 dni roboczych. Twelve scientists from diverse backgrounds and disciplines demonstrate that it is indeed possible for profound intellectuals to integrate the life of science with the life of faith. In honest and inspiring interviews, they describe the difficult though rewarding process of reconciling their faith with their science and reveal the ways in which the two spheres can not only coexist but also mutually enhance each other. Jane Goodall begins the conversation by emphasizing the importance of recognizing the "spark of spirit" that runs through all creatures, human and animal. Robert Pollack...

The Re-Emergence of Emergence: The Emergentist Hypothesis from Science to Religion
ISBN: 9780199544318 / Angielski / Miękka / 2008 / 344 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 30 dni roboczych. Much of the modern period was dominated by a reductionist' theory of science. On this view, to explain any event in the world is to reduce it down to fundamental particles, laws, and forces. In recent years reductionism has been dramatically challenged by a radically new paradigm called emergence'. According to this new theory, natural history reveals the continuous emergence of novel phenomena: new structures and new organisms with new causal powers. Consciousness is yet one more emergent level in the natural hierarchy. Many theologians and religious scholars believe that this new paradigm...

In Whom We Live and Move and Have Our Being: Panentheistic Reflections on God's Presence in a Scientific World
ISBN: 9780802809780 / Angielski / Miękka / 2004 / 322 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 13-18 dni roboczych. Foreword by Mary Ann Meyers
Recent years have seen an explosion of interest in the doctrine of panentheism -- the belief that the world is contained within the Divine, although God is also more than the world. Here for the first time leading scientists and theologians meet to debate the merits of this compelling new understanding of the God-world relation. Atheist and theist, Eastern and Western, conservative and liberal, modern and postmodern, physicist and biologist, Orthodox and Protestant -- the authors explore the tensions between traditional views of God and contemporary science and...

God and Contemporary Science
ISBN: 9780802844606 / Angielski / Miękka / 1998 / 286 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 13-18 dni roboczych. It is widely believed that contemporary science has ruled out divine action in the world. Arguing that theology can and must respond to this challenge, Philip Clayton surveys the available biblical and philosophical resources. Recent work in cosmology, quantum physics, and the brain sciences offers exciting new openings for a theology of divine action. If Christian theism is to make use of these opportunities, says Clayton, it must place a greater stress on divine immanence. In response to this challenge, Clayton defends the doctrine of panentheism, the view that the world is in some sense...

Explanation from Physics to Theology: An Essay in Rationality and Religion
ISBN: 9780300043532 / Angielski / Twarda / 1989 / 256 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 13-18 dni roboczych. In this book Philip Clayton defends the rationality of religious explanations by exploring the parallels between explanatory effects in the sciences and the explanations offered by religious believers, students of religion, and theologians.
Clayton begins by surveying the types of religious explanation, offering a synopsis of the most significant competing positions. He then critically examines recent important developments in the philosophy of science regarding the nature of scientific explanations--including the work of Popper, Hempel, Kuhn, and Lakatos in the natural sciences and...

The Problem of God in Modern Thought
ISBN: 9780802864789 / Angielski / Miękka / 2000 / 536 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 13-18 dni roboczych. It is widely believed that modern philosophers have dismissed the idea of God and opted instead for a secular humanism. Challenging these stereotypes through a careful study of major philosophical texts written since the Enlightenment, Philip Clayton shows how the main thinkers of the modern period have continued to wrestle with the problem of God and to make proposals for understanding the divine.Following up on his award-winning book God and Contemporary Science, Clayton here explores the constructive resources that modern thought offers to those struggling with the notion of God as...

Mind and Emergence: From Quantum to Consciousness
ISBN: 9780199291434 / Angielski / Miękka / 2006 / 256 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 30 dni roboczych. Strong claims have been made for emergence as a new paradigm for understanding science, consciousness, and religion. Tracing the past history and current definitions of the concept, Clayton assesses the case for emergent phenomena in the natural world and their significance for philosophy and theology. Complex emergent phenomena require irreducible levels of explanation in physics, chemistry and biology. This pattern of emergence suggests a new approach to the problem of consciousness, which is neither reducible to brain states nor proof of a mental substance or soul. Although emergence does...
