"This book is a collection of eighteen essays representing an outgrowth of a study week at the Vatican in 1987. The three studies of the title are discussed and connected with great breadth—and often also depth—by eighteen authors. Their erudition is rivaled only by their productivity and their diversity." —Zygon"This book gathers the contributions of some of the finest scholars working in the area of science and religious understanding. Anyone wishing to follow the contemporary conversations among the representatives of physics, philosophy, and theology can hardly ignore the substance of this text." —Église et Théologie"High quality . . . this is a worthwhile book, one which should be studied carefully by all students of the modern world of science and theology interacting." —Philosophy of Religion
