520 $a"... a comprehensive and profound analysis of the main issues in John Polkinghorne's authorship. The book explores following topics: Rationality in science and theology, including an analysis of critical realism, scientific method, and the structure of knowledge -- A revised natural theology, including an examination of the intelligibility of the world, the fine-tuning of the world, and the beauty of nature -- God's action in the world, including an analysis of God as creator, God's providence, quantum physics, and chaos theory -- The pedagogical applicability of Polkinghorne's theories, including a review of how his understanding can stimulate dialogue in schools. Throughout Traces of God, Polkinghorne's position is discussed in the light of other science-theology contributors, such as Ian G. Barbour, Niels Henrik Gregersen, Alister E. McGrath, Nancy Murphy, Wolfhart Pannenberg, Arthur R. Peacocke, Ted Peters, Robert J. Russell, and J. Wentzel van Huyssteen."--P. [4] of cover.
