Description
This text is part of the "New Studies in Constructive Theology" series. It asks critical questions about the divine action in the world, addressing such issues as miraculous events. Recent work in cosmology, quantum physics and the brain sciences offers opening for a theology of divine action. This is a systematic survey of the relationship between natural science and theology.
