5.0 out of 5 stars
A fascinating treatise, meticulously researched,
By Midwest Book Review (Oregon, WI USA) - See all my reviews
This review is from: God's Two Books: Copernical Cosmology and Biblical Interpretation in Early Modern Science (Hardcover)
God's Two Books: Copernican Cosmology And Biblical Interpretation In Early Modern Science by Kenneth J. Howell (Director of the John Henry Newman Institute of Catholic Thought and Adjunct Professor of Religious Studies, University of Illinois, Champaign-Urbana) is a compelling, scholarly study of the upset that cosmic scientific discoveries had upon theological views starting in the 16th and 17th centuries. In an attempt to reconcile seemingly widely disparate views, God's Two Books introduces the idea of "convergent realism" to incorporate both empirical and theological points of view into a holistic understanding of the universe. A fascinating treatise, meticulously researched in its science, its history, and its scripture, God's Two Books is strongly recommended reading for those who have found their minds divided between disparate extremes in the question of universal origin and cosmological future.
