Never in history have we known more than we know today. In the age of knowledge, science has enveloped our lives and influences humanity in almost every aspect. At any given moment, dozens of studies are published in countless areas of knowledge – studies that bring us closer to understanding the laws of nature, as well as advance human thinking towards the future. Nevertheless, faith, religion, spirituality and divinity still play a central role in the lives of many people. With the gap between what we know and what we believe is constantly growing, the authors of this book has found it necessary to offer tools for critical thinking about the relationship between science and faith.

Review

This one is a bit difficult to review. It is informative and gives the reader quite a bit to think about. There is a LOT of information in this and I think it's just taking me some time to digest. I think it could have been presented a bit more concisely, its a bit long winded at times. I think the goal of the book is ultimately reached for those already on the fence, but I think for those who aren't already on the fence wont get as much out of it.
