Synopsis

"S. Jocelyn Bell Burnell, one of the discoverers of pulsars; Larry Dossey, a physician of internal medicine who has researched the effect of prayer on patients; and eight other scientists representing the fields of physics, biochemistry, genetics, and astronomy discuss their belief in "Divine Power". Most, though not all, reflect on the significance of Christian thinking in their life and work, and all examine the reasons for their spiritual beliefs and how they arrived at them in the course of their careers. These thinkers, all distinguished in their disciplines, hold a common sense of humility before the mystery of life without sacrificing the capacity to question and explore the nature of reality. This compelling exploration of the interface between science and religion is highly recommended". - Bernadette McGrath, Vancouver P.L., BC ("Library Journal").
