Science and Belief

Reviews / Votes

`[Stannard] explores controversial subjects, such as Creation, intelligent design, evolution and miracles. Writing simply and impartially, his aim is to encourage readers to make their own decisions on what they believe.' * The War Cry * This is an impressive must-read book for all thinking people, atheists and believers alike. It succeeds in making it reasonable to be both scientific and religious, to be up-to-date in both fields, to hold a chair in physics and be a lay minister in the Church of England. -- John Morris * The Good Bookstall * This is a book which will be found helpful, not only by sixth-formers tackling these questions but also by any intelligent enquirer seeking a treatment which is balanced and careful, without demanding delving into an excessive degree of academic complexity. -- John Pilkinghome * Theology * This is a book which will be found helpful, not only by sixth formers tackling these questions but also by any intelligent enquirer seeking a treatment which is balance and careful, without demanding delving into an excessive degree of academic complexity. -- John Polkinghome * Theology * The big issues are well chosen, ranging from old chestnuts such as evolution in it's many guises, to extra-terrestrial intelligence, psychology and morality. Stannard's scientific background makes the science clear and engaging. -- Tom King * The Lance *
