Knowing Creation is a rich, cross-disciplinary collection of essays on the theme of creation from a Christian theological perspective. Contributors include Marilyn McCord Adams, Denis Alexander, Susan Eastman, C. Stephen Evans, Peter van Inwagen, Christoph Schwöbel, John H. Walton, Francis Watson, and more. Knowing Creation is an essential resource for helping scholars from a range of fields appreciate one another's concerns and perspectives, offering an important step forward in establishing a mutually-enriching dialogue that addresses, amongst others, the following key questions: Who is the God who creates?Why does God create?What is "creation"?Is it feasible for a natural scientist to maintain a belief in God's continuing creative activity?How can biblical studies, theology, philosophy, history, and science talk better together about these questions? At a time when the doctrine of creation has been disparaged due to its supposed associations with anti-scientific dogma, it is more important than ever to offer a cross-disciplinary resource that can voice a positive account of a Christian theology of creation, and do so as a genuinely broad-ranging conversation about science and faith. Editors Andrew Torrance and Thomas McCall seek to set forth a convincing case for the positive relationship between a theology of creation and that of contemporary science.
