Cosmic Chemistry: Do God and Science Mix?

John C. Lennox Prof Lennox examines afresh the plausibility of a Christian theistic worldview in the light of some of the latest developments in scientific understanding. He focuses on the areas of evolutionary theory, the origins of life and the universe, and the concepts of mind and consciousness to provide a detailed and compelling introduction to the science and religion debate. He also offers his own reasoning as to why he continues to be convinced by a Christian approach to explaining these phenomena. Robust in its reasoning, but respectful in tone, this book is vital reading for anyone exploring the relationship between science and God. Pb | 400 pgs | LION

Does Religion Do More Harm Than Good?

Rupert Shortt Are the world's major spiritual traditions sources of greater discord than harmony? Or are conflicts fundamentally social and political? In this succinct but reflective book, Rupert Shortt offers even-handed guidance on one of the most disputed questions of our time. He sheds light on the contrast between good and bad religion, and why the distinction is of urgent relevance in an era increasingly described as post-secular. Pb | 104 pgs | SPCK
