Reviews
Since its genesis over two decades ago, the "Complexity Thesis" has functioned for most historians of science and religion as a corrective to the still popular notion that the relationship between the two has been characterized by inevitable conflict. Bernard Lightman's excellent volume collects some of the most mature reflections upon the status of the complexity principle. The first-rate essays contained herein show that the complexity principle continues to stimulate and challenge scholars of the science / religion relationship."-Monte Harrell Hampton, author of Storm of Words: Science, Religion, and Evolution in the Civil War Era
