"[A[] welcome volume for Christians who are in the sciences and especially those who recognize the important role religion can play in science. . . .

But I particularly recommend a serious consideration of the book to scientists." -- Perspectives on Science and Christian Faith, "Contrary to popular opinion that holds that most of the affairs of day-to-day life are seen as neutral with respect to religious belief, [Clouser] finds 'that religious belief is the most powerful and influential belief in the world' and that it 'has the single most decisive influence on everyone's understanding of the major issues of life ranging across the entire spectrum of human experience. . . .

    One of the best sellers I've ever dealt with, if not the best. The book was packaged well and communication was strong throughout the process. Shipped quickly and priced well. I highly recommend adding this seller to your list to follow, given all the unique items that are consistently flowing through her inventory. If I could rate the process with 6 stars, I would. So grateful for you!
