内容简介
······
The conflict between science and religion seems indelible, even eternal. Surely two such divergent views of the universe have always been in fierce opposition? Actually, that’s not the case, says Peter Harrison: our very concepts of science and religion are relatively recent, emerging only in the past three hundred years, and it is those very categories, rather than their underlying concepts, that constrain our understanding of how the formal study of nature relates to the religious life.
In The Territories of Science and Religion, Harrison dismantles what we think we know about the two categories, then puts it all back together again in a provocative, productive new way. By tracing the history of these concepts for the first time in parallel, he illuminates alternative boundaries and little-known relations between them—thereby making it possible for us to learn from their true history, and see other possible ways that scientific study and the religious life might relate to, influence, and mutually enrich each other.
A tour de force by a distinguished scholar working at the height of his powers, The Territories of Science and Religion promises to forever alter the way we think about these fundamental pillars of human life and experience.

太关注基督会浪费亚洲铜的时间,关于连贯性,价值连续,以及身体灵性,神秘学和信仰,理性的分立;灌注自己的质量,彻底的景象,和活的人,这是重要的,翻译好,科学是一个不可多得的每况愈下的好礼物,但他们写的书,是在为基督做准备,为河道做梳理,美国图景不阻挡祭祀,欧洲图景难出惯性,亚洲铜的图景需要青年行动,凿出土地来
大有裨益,年度十佳。
辨名,析理,钩沉,解惑。
宗教和科學的內在德性,心靈習性,他們本身並不衝突,衝突的是其背後存在的價值體系
