Gerald Schroeder, a physicist and Biblical scholar, demonstrates the surprising parallels between a number of Biblical teachings and the findings of biochemists, paleontologists, astrophysicists, and quantum physicists. He offers a wide-ranging discussion of free will, the development of the universe, the origin of life, and the origin of man, arguing that the latest science and a close reading of the Bible are not just compatible but interdependent.

Reviews:

“...this engaging and humane book advances the dialogue beyond clichés and stereotypes of which both scientists and religious believers have been guilty.” – Washington Post

​

“Schroeder offers fresh evidence for the eternal argument that science and religion, matter and spirit, need not be seen as conflicting or mutually exclusive.” – Publishers Weekly

​

“Schroeder is very lucid in explaining difficult scientific concepts, such as the passage of time according to the theory of relativity, and religious data, such as the original Hebrew words. Schroeder's careful and responsible handling of the data on origins from science and Genesis 1, combined with a fresh, judicious correlation between the two, is compelling. Highly recommended.”  – Eugene O. Bowser, Library Journal
