Addressing fundamental questions about life, death and the universe Science and the Spiritual Quest: New Essays by Leading Scientists examines the ways in which scientists negotiate the complex frontiers between their scientific and religious beliefs. Distinguished cosmologists, physicians, biologists and computer scientists of different faiths explore the connections between the domain of science and the realms of ethics, spirituality and the divine. Through essays and frank interviews, they offer honest, stimulating, and often intensely personal thoughts about life's most impenetrable mysteries. This unique volume presents radical new approaches to the religion/science debate and highlights the continued importance of the 'spiritual quest' in a world transformed by the developments of science.

Industry Reviews

'A unique book, at once serious and entertaining...a highly stimulating 'must read' for all of us involved in science/religion discussion, but also for those of us who can only find spare time for seeing how the project of science is part of a wider quest.' -Niels Henrik Grefersen 'Will have a significant cultural impact...unique among science and religion projects in its recruitment of top scientists and in the emphasis on answering the question of how much faith has had an impact on their own scientific work.'-Nancey Murphy, Professor of Christian Philosophy, Fuller Theological Seminary 'I think it is excellent. Indeed, hard to fault.'-Graham Howes, Trinity Hall, Cambridge
