Book review: Worlds Apart: The Unholy War Between Religion and Science by Karl Giberson and Religion Confronting Science: And There Was Light by Donivan Bessinger
Haas, JW. 1995.  PSCF 47(4):270. CELD ID 13772

Abstract
The desire to help subsets of the Christian community to relate their faith to contemporary science continues to inspire efforts by writers from diverse disciplines. The contributions of Nazarene physicist Giberson and Episcopalian surgeon Bessinger come out of a desire to clarify the science-religion question, first for their church and then for a wider audience. My interest in this review deals with both the subject matter and the strategies used with faith communities who might be expected to have differing attitudes toward science and the Bible.
