INVENTING THE UNIVERSE: WHY WE CAN’T STOP TALKING ABOUT SCIENCE, FAITH AND GOD
Book ID/图书代码： 06400014B70705
English Summary/英文概要： An accessible, engaging account of the big questions about science and faith, grounded in the
very best scholarship.
The often troubled relationship between science and religion was seemingly damaged further by
the rise of the New Atheism, which insisted that science had essentially disproved not just God but
also the value of religion. But there is increasing scepticism towards its often glib and superficial answers; and the big questions about faith, God and science haven’t gone away - in fact, we seem to talk about them more than ever.
In this book leading scientist and theologian Professor Alister McGrath engages with all the big
questions that Dawkins and others have raised, including origins, the burden of proof, meaning, the existence of God and our place in the universe. Informed by the very best and latest scholarship, INVENTING THE UNIVERSE remains accessible and engaging for a lay audience.
Positive, compelling and highly readable, this is the thinking person’s introduction to the complex
and intriguing relationship between science and faith.
Chinese Summary/中文概要： 基于最佳学术而诞生，有关于科学与信仰宏大课题的叙述，易于理解同时引人入胜。
随着新无神主义的兴起，有关于科学与宗教间令人一直困惑不已的关系似乎进一步遭到了破坏，因为新无神主义坚称科学已经最佳地论证的上帝以及宗教价值的无意义。然而对于其一直以来肤浅而随意的解答，人们的怀疑也随之不断攀升；而有关于信仰、上帝及科学的宏大课题依旧存在---事实上，我们似乎比以往任何一个时候都要更多的在谈论这些问题。
在本书中，前沿科学家及神学教授阿里斯特•马克格雷思将为我们谈论道金斯等人提出的一系列宏大课题，其中包括起源问题，举证责任，意义，上帝的存在性，以及我们在宇宙中的位置。《创造宇宙》由当今最优秀最前沿的学者为你带来依然简单易懂同时引人入胜的信息与文字。
积极、有趣、极具阅读价值，这边是思想家们对于这本有关于科学与信仰间复杂关系介绍的书籍的引荐之评。（DC）
