'Polkinghorne is the unquestioned leader in the growing field of science and religion, and by a considerable margin, is its most intellectually credible thinker.' --Karl W. Giberson, co-author of The Language of Science and Faith

'I found this survey of science and theology to be readable, scholarly, well-organized, and insightful as always . . . this is a fine introductory survey that will be helpful to a wide variety of readers.' --John Haught, author of God and the New Atheism
