As with any anthology, a discriminatory selection process requires an exclusion of some authors and works that some readers may feel should have been included. The editors of this work were painfully aware of this problem, but took into consideration the interests and opinions of their readers when revising and updating this anthology. Those who have the first edition, like myself, will notice ...

James Wiseman

Continuum International Publishing Group, 2002

Intelligent Integration of Doctrine and Science
This is a wonderfully thoughtful book about key issues science raises for Christians. The first thing I like about the book is that it takes both science and Christian theology very seriously. I like particularly that the evidence for evolution and a very old universe is accepted as established scientific truth, as it is everywhere in science but all too rarely in Christian books about science. ...
