Editorial Reviews

From the Inside Flap

nchly opposed viewpoints into one groundbreaking new perspective, this startling and timely work illuminates the complete interdependence between Biblical reports and modern scientific discoveries. Comparing key events from the Old Testament with the most current findings of biochemists, paleontologists, and physicists, Gerald Schroeder resolves age-old debates about miracles, the origins of the universe, the first life on Earth, and the meaning of free will. Through thoughtful, engaging discussions--even using Einstein's theory of relativity to validate a six-day creation timetable--The Science of God ultimately proves both Darwin and creationists right.

Thought-provoking
I enjoyed this trot through various scientific disciplines and attempt to conflate the roots of todays polarized arguments into one.There is a lot packed into it. You may feel the need to go back and check up on his sources, re-read and research, because his assertions have the impression of fairly haphazard, tentative guesswork.I'm not sure his interpretations of certain biblical verses are accurate, it would require the original Hebrew and much awareness of context to claim that e.g. biblical time started at the creation of human souls. Does Genesis 1:27 actually say this? I don't think its clear.And so on.He has some interesting ideas and writes about complicated scientific matters in an accessible and very easy-going style.His premise seems to be that a) Current scientific thought is correct therefore b) The bible must be re-interpreted to fit popular theory.But why would people of faith (of which I am one) limit God to limited human perception in the first instance? Surely the almighty could have made creation within 6 earth days if he so desired. I don't see the need to invent naturalistic explanations for certain events that we are told are supernatural, that are in any case accepted only by faith.
