Explains modern physics to general readers without oversimplification. Using the insights of modern physics, this book reveals that modern scientific discoveries and religious faith are deeply consonant. It is aimed at anyone with an interest in science and religion.
Elegant writings by a cutting-edge research scientist defending traditional theological and philosophical positions Both an accomplished theoretical physicist and a faithful Catholic, Stephen Barr in this book addresses a wide range of questions about the relationship between science and religion, providing a beautiful picture of how they can coexist in harmony. In his first essay, "Retelling the Story of Science," Barr challenges the widely held idea that there is an inherent conflict between science and religion. He goes on to analyze such topics as the quantum creation of universes from nothing, the multiverse, the Intelligent Design movement, and the implications of neuroscience for the reality of the soul. Including reviews of highly influential books by such figures as Edward O. Wilson, Richard Dawkins, Stephen Jay Gould, Francis S. Collins, Michael Behe, and Thomas Nagel, The Believing Scientist helpfully engages pressing questions that often vex religious believers who wish to engage with the world of science.
What happens to a boy who has nothing but a hat? Everything. A boy wakes up one morning and finds that everything he owns has gone missing. With nothing but a simple green hat, the boy journeys through distant landscapes, searching high and low for the things he has lost. Along the way he discovers that perhaps everything he needs has been sitting on his head all along. Stephen Barr makes his debut in this achingly poignant and deeply profound fable of one boy's adventure to recover his life's treasures. With vibrant illustrations by Gracey Zhang and a subtle message about hopeful perseverance, this book is an exquisite, emotional journey through loss, persistence, and finding the most important thing in life: oneself.

Książka stanowi zbiór esejów dowodzących, że między nauką a religią nie ma konfliktu. Autor, opierając się na najnowszych badaniach i odwołując się również do prawd wiary, prowadzi czytelników po meandrach współczesnej fizyki i w błyskotliwy sposób wyjaśnia niespecjalistom skomplikowane treści. Profesor Stephen Barr jest światowej sławy fizykiem teoretykiem w dziedzinie cząstek elementarnych i kosmologii oraz wybitnym znawcą problematyki relacji wiary i nauki. Znając jego prace z obu dziedzin bardzo cieszy mnie fakt, że kolejna książka prof. Barra ukazuje się w polskim tłumaczeniu.
