THE GALILEO CONNECTIONCharles E HummelHummel gives a background and a clear analysis for a Christianunderstanding of science. He tells the fascinating stories of Copernicus,Kepler, Galileo, and Newton, with the aim of removing the unnecessarywedge between Christiantity and science. 293 pages, from IVP.
The church disagreed with Galileo. That set off a controversy that rages on today. The passion remains but the issues have changed and the arguments have become more complex. Do miracles conflict with scientific laws? How did the universe begin? Does the creation story in Genesis conflict with evolution?Hummel sets these controversies in historical perspective by telling the fascinating stories of Copernicus, Kepler, Galileo and Newton. Through their eyes we see how science flourished and floundered under the influence fo the church, setting the scene for modern conflicts.Then Hummel turns to the Bible, discussing its relationship to science, the place of miracles and the biblical account of the origin of the universe. His treatment of modern controversies is respected and fair-minded. Yet he does not hesitate to criticize the views of others and argue for his own.
