This modern age, so dominated by and dependent upon science, is also the age in which 98 per cent of Americans profess a belief in God. Its an age in which the Prime Minister and the Queen of England both believe openly in an afterlife. Church attendance figures are in a state of decline, yet popular beliefs in various aspects of the supernatural ghosts and spirits, fortune-telling, faith healing are more vigorous than ever. Whilst Christianity struggles to win new converts, Islam acts as a unifying, energizing force for many of the worlds most dispossessed people.
The Story of God is a ground-breaking book that examines the relationship between science and religion across time, beginning with the primitive worship of our early ancestors and concluding with a vivid portrait of faith in the modern world. Robert Winston provides a unique perspective: he writes as a respected scientist who is also committed to Judaism, and offers a challenging, sometimes startling personal discourse to the debate. Grand in scope, adventurous in tone, the book traces a line across continents, cultures and eras. --This text refers to an out of print or unavailable edition of this title.
