Slaying the Dragons: Destroying myths in the history of science and faith,Used
Delivery time: 8-12 business days (International)
In 'Slaying the Dragons', professor and member of the Faculty of History at Wadham College, Oxford, Allan Chapman examines the claims of the 'New Atheists that: religion really belongs to an earlier phase of human development, and that nowadays science has taken its place as the yardstick of authority. But are science and religion friends or foes? There are a great many scientists of the highest intellectual distinction ranging from cosmology to medical research, who make no bones about their faith and cannot understand what the 'New Atheists' are getting so worked up about. Chapman explores whether anything has changed in the nature of scientific discovery to allow for the modern atheistic interpretations of science that did not exist in the past. He also examines whether or not modern discoveries in biology, brain science, cosmology and physics seriously undermine religious belief. In this study, Allan Chapman examines popular misunderstandings about key events in the history of sciencefaith relations. He covers the major episodes such as Galileo's trial, the WilberforceHuxley debate and the Scopes trial of 1925, but also looks further back through the medieval period to the Classical age, revealing how these events have acquired mythical and misleading status. Asking if religious modern scientists just the fools that new atheists paint them to be, or are the latter just so blind in their dogmatic brainwashing that they cannot see the bigger world beyond their testtubes, 'Slaying the Dragons' exposes the atheists' wornout tale which itself goes back centuries, and which they are trying to spice up with big helpings of rhetoric and ridicule.
