Recensione
'This booklet records the text of Sarah Coakley's inaugural lecture as the Norris-Hulse Professor of Divinity in the University of Cambridge from October 2009 ... [Coakley] has demonstrated that the cooperation between scientists and theologians is indeed able to offer new and fresher insights into the human condition and to encourage a much broader attention to God's mysterious presence in this universe.' Reviews in Religion and Theology
Descrizione del libro
For all concerned about the current clash between concepts of religion and evolution, Coakley demonstrates that the latest discoveries show that 'cooperation' was as important an evolutionary principle as 'mutation' and 'selection'. Evolution has therefore a productive, sacrificial dimension with immense implications for ethical and religious beliefs and behaviours.
