Can science explain everything? Many people think so, and see no place for 'religion' in this time of rapid scientific progress. Oxford professor John Lennox offers a fresh perspective on the science/faith relationship, showing how they are compatible, and dispelling common misconceptions.
THE OXFORD APOLOGETICS SERIES
A series that grapples with major modern objections to the Christian faith.
Science and psychology, sex and suffering, philosophy and history. There are many complex questions that are either blockages to faith for those who are not Christian, or problems of faith for those who are Christian believers.
In this series, top academics in their field grapple with these questions in a way that is accessible to those who may have little or no background in the area. The authors are drawn from a pool of academics, writers, speakers and thinkers connected to the Oxford Centre for Christian Apologetics.
Can science explain everything? Many people think so. Science, and the technologies it has spawned, has delivered so much to the world: clean water; more food; better healthcare; longer life. And we live in a time of rapid scientific progress that holds enormous promise for many of the problems we face as humankind. So much so, in fact, that many see no need or use for religion and belief systems that offer us answers to the mysteries of our universe. Science has explained it, they assume. Science and religion just do not mix. Oxford Maths Professor and Christian believer Prof. John Lennox offers a fresh way of thinking about science and Christianity that dispels the common misconceptions about both. He reveals that not only are they not opposed, but they can and must mix to give us a fuller understanding of the universe and the meaning of our existence.

The book provides the reader with an initial understanding of key issues as it covers a wide range of topics. Overall """"Can Science Explain Everything?"""" was very insightful and thought-provoking as Lennox provides a great stepping stone for readers to go further and deeper into the realm of science and faith. \\n\\nI would highly recommend this book to anyone who has an interest in the role science and faith play in providing an explanation of reality. \\n\\n
