Description
The contemporary encounter between faith and science is quite different from the earlier one. science and science-based technology are on the defensive, and religious faith, speaking in the name of troubled and anxious humanity, has begun to ask questions about the consequences of the scientific world view. It is a new probing of the fundamental nature of the power that modern science/technology puts into the hands of humanity and the kind of world this produces. It leads to a new questioning of the place of moral understanding in relation to science and technology and a new examination of the churches' critical function in relation to the scientific and technological world view.ISBN:0800623908
