Covers the period from the early Christian church to the 20th century, offering fresh appraisals of such encounters as the trial of Galileo, the formulation of the Newtonian worldview, and the controversies over 'scientific creationism'. This book explores not only the impact of religion on science, but also the influence of science and religion.
