About this audiobook
Can science explain everything? Many people think so. Science, and the technologies it has spawned, has delivered so much to the world: clean water; more food; better healthcare; longer life. And we live in a time of rapid scientific progress that holds enormous promise for many of the problems we face as humankind. So much so, in fact, that many see no need or use for religion and belief systems that offer us answers to the mysteries of our universe. Science has explained it, they assume. Science and religion just do not mix.
Oxford Maths Professor and Christian believer Prof. John Lennox offers a fresh way of thinking about science and Christianity that dispels the common misconceptions about both. He reveals that not only are they not opposed, but they can and must mix to give us a fuller understanding of the universe and the meaning of our existence.

- Rating: 5 out of 5 stars5/5Engaging and articulate discussion of issues surrounding science and faith. Lennox is not only learned, but he is a gifted writer. It’s also delightful to hear him read his own book. Highly recommended for those interested in the particular question and the title of the book or issues surrounding science and faith.
