"Sharply focused on the concept of design in nature, how it changed with time and historical context, and how it was distinctively understood in each of the Abrahamic religious traditions, this exciting book will appeal to all seeking global perspectives on arguments of long pedigree." John Hedley Brooke, Professor of Science and Religion Emeritus, Oxford University, UK
"This book accomplishes the remarkable achievement of illuminating, in a new and exhilarating way, age-old questions about the relationships between scientific, religious and philosophical ways of grasping our world. Its splendid chapters, by scholars from different traditions, show the enduring life and appeal of the ancient idea that natures intricate order reflects some sort of design and purpose." Noah J. Efron, Professor of the History and Philosophy of Science, Bar-Ilan University, Israel
"Essential reading for anyone interested in the question of whether the natural world is designed by God, this volume provides an invaluable historical, philosophical, and inter-religious contextualisation to these ongoing debates." Joanna Leidenhag, Associate Professor of Theology and Philosophy, University of Leeds, UK
"Design Discourse in Abrahamic Traditions is a groundbreaking contribution to the ongoing, often contentious, debate about the argument for design. Incredibly important is the way in which the collection reaches out beyond Christianity to the other Abrahamic religions Judaism and Islam. From now on, no one is prepared to enter discussion without having read this book. The reward is a hugely better discourse than hitherto." Michael Ruse, Professor of Philosophy Emeritus, Florida State University, USA
