This book is the original version of Can Science Explain Everything?

Can science explain everything? Many people think so. Science and the technologies it spawned have brought so much to the world: clean water, more food, better health care, longer life. And we live in a time of rapid scientific progress that holds tremendous promise for many of the problems facing humanity. So much so that many see no use in religion and belief systems that offer us answers to the mysteries of our universe. Science has explained it, they suppose. Religion is superfluous.

John Lennox, an Oxford mathematics professor and Christian believer, offers a new way of thinking about science and Christianity that dispels common misconceptions about them. It reveals that not only are they not opposites, but they can and should blend together to give us a fuller understanding of the universe and the meaning of our existence.
