In the eighteenth and nineteenth centuries, evangelicals often took their place among prominent practicing scientists, and their perspectives exerted a considerable impact on the development of modern western science. Over the last century, however, evangelical scientists have become less visible, even as the focus of evangelical engagement has shifted to political and cultural spheres.

Evangelicals and Science in Historical Perspective offers the first wide-ranging survey of the history of the encounter between evangelical Protestantism and science. Comprising papers by leading historians of science and religion, this collection shows that the questions of science have been central to the history of evangelicalism in the United States, as well as in Britain and Canada. It will be an invaluable resource for understanding the historical context of contemporary political squabbles, such as the debate over the status of creation science and the teaching of evolution.

Arvustused

We give a warm recommendation to a scholarly and stimulating book. * Brethren Archivists & Historians Network Review * Here is a book to savour and enjoy. It is a scholarly volume, pleasingly produced. * Brethren Archivists & Historians Network Review * Has much to say to historians of science ... these essays are all fascinating ... this is a beginning rather than an ending, and for making that start, it is to be commended. * British Journal for the History of Science * The essays succeed brilliantly in their essential purpose of demonstrating that the many encounters between Evangelicals and science, far fom being a mere ideological Punch and Judy show, are deserving of the most careful investigation from historians and theologians alike. * Theology * This collection contributes significantly to understanding the encounter between science and religion in the period studied. * American Historical Review 18/04/2002 *
