Most people, when they think about the purported conflict between science and religion, would most likely think first of evangelical Protestantism.

Produktbeschreibung
Most people, when they think about the purported conflict between science and religion, would most likely think first of evangelical Protestantism. Because of the prominent place evolution versus creationism - and such events as the Scopes Trial - has had in the debates over science and religion, many people think of evangelicals as hostile to science. As with other volumes in the Greenwood Guides to Science and Religion series, this work addresses the more complex interworkings between modern science and evangelical Christianity. Creationism will feature prominently, of course, but there will be other chapters covering other aspects of this relationship - geology, environmental issues, and technology. Evangelicals and Science provides a thorough overview of the history of the relationship between these two dominant forces in public life, including chapters on evangelicals, the Bible and science, evangelicals and geology, the rise of Creationism, and evangelicals and modern science. The volume includes primary source documents to give readers a flavor of the writings of evangelicals on science, a timeline, and an annotated bibliography.

Autorenporträt
Michael Roberts works in IT Support but has always enjoyed writing. As a child, he wrote a short story about a boy with a magic tea tray; when Michael's father entered it into a national competition, this story became a runner-up. Mick is a huge fan of Manchester United and has seen over a thousand matches in fourteen countries. He writes articles for a Manchester United fanzine and is in the process of putting together stories for a book following the club. Mick enjoys walking in the British countryside and, as a keen real ale imbiber, loves the country pubs that he is often fortunate enough to find at the end of nearly every walk. He will shortly have a piece published in the Fylde Ale CAMRA magazine.
