false 51790 5 In this timely work, Russell, philosopher, agnostic, mathematician, and renowned peace advocate, offers a brief yet insightful study of the conflicts between science and traditional religion during the last four centuries. Examining accounts in which scientific advances clashed with Christian doctrine or biblical interpretations of the day, from Galileo and the Copernican Revolution, to the medical breakthroughs of anesthesia and inoculation, Russell points to the constant upheaval and reevaluation of our systems of belief throughout history. In turn, he identifies where similar debates between modern science and the Church still exist today. Michael Ruse's new introduction brings these conflicts between science and theology up to date, focusing on issues arising after World War II. This classic is sure to interest all readers of philosophy and religion, as well as those interested in Russell's thought and writings. 50533 1935 Religion and Science total:114|5:30|4:48|3:27|2:8|1:1| 114 440 197 10 4 1 false false Wed Apr 16 13:29:52 -0700 2008 Tue Apr 22 01:04:38 -0700 2008 more...]]> 4 1 false false Sat Mar 22 09:05:54 -0700 2008 Sat Mar 22 09:14:24 -0700 2008 more...]]> 5 1 false false Thu Jan 24 00:00:00 -0800 2008 Thu Dec 27 01:40:55 -0800 2007 Sun Feb 24 13:34:13 -0800 2008
