The Science of God

In The Science of God, distinguished physicist Gerald Schroeder offers a wide-ranging discussion of such topics as free will, the development of the universe, the origin of life, and the origin of man, arguing that the latest science and a close reading of the Bible are not just compatible but interdependent. Religious belief is enhanced by an open-eyed investigation of the world, and honest science demands humility when faced with the astonishing richness of life's creation. Uniting staunchly opposed viewpoints into one groundbreaking new perspective, this startling and timely work illuminates the complete interdependence between Biblical wisdom and modern scientific discoveries. Comparing key events from the Bible with the most current findings of biochemists, paleontologists, and physicists, Gerald Schroeder resolves age-old conflicts about the origins of the universe, the first life on Earth, and the meaning of free will.
