Cosmology

"In these chapters, Robert J. Russell takes theology and science beyond mere dialogue into a genuinely new relationship: "creative mutual interaction." The theological topics range from God, creation, suffering in nature, the theological significance of life in the universe to an eschatology involving the transformation of the universe into the new creation based on the bodily Resurrection of Jesus. Scientific topics include the Big Bang, inflation and quantum cosmologies, relativity, quantum mechanics, molecular and evolutionary biology, exobiology, and the modern mathematics of infinity. Although, as Barbour notes, Russell "avoids giving simple answers to complex questions," readers will be amply rewarded with for their journey into this new discipline."--Jacket.
