The ground and grammar of theology : consonance between theology and science

The author eplores the question of whether the theologian will ever be reconciled with the scientist? Topics include the transformation of natural theology, creation and science and the basic grammar of theology. Will The Theologian Ever Be Reconciled With The Scientist? T. F. Torrance Discusses The Implications For Christian Theology Of A Transition From The Two Great Dualist Cosmologies Of The Past (the Ptolemaic And The Copernican-newtonian) To A Non-dualist Einsteinian Cosmology, Which Might Seek To Integrate The Assumptions Of Science And Religion By Elucidating The Unity Of Being And Form, Substance And Structure. Torrance Maintains That The Continuing Dialogue Between Theological And Natural Sciences Will Benefit Both Fields Of Study. -- From Back Cover.
