This book is about creation stories in dialogue, not only between
different religious views, but also between current day scientific
perspectives. International specialists, like Alan Culpepper, David
Christian, John Haught, Randall Zachman, Ellen van Wolde from
various disciplines are reflecting on the interface between science
and religion relating questions of creation and origin. This
multi-disciplinary discussion by some of the leading exponents in
this field makes the book unique, not only in its depth of
discussion, but also in it wide ranging interdisciplinary
discussion. The point of departure of all the contributions is the
prestige lecture by Alan Culpepper where he argues for bringing
Biblical material into discussion with modern scientific insights
relating to creation and origin.
