by Tom Mcleish
Hardcover, 384 Pages, Published 2019 by Oxford University Press
ISBN-13: 978-0-19-879799-9, ISBN: 0-19-879799-0

"What human qualities are needed to make scientific discoveries, and which to make great art? Many would point to 'imagination' and 'creativity' in the second case but not the first.

ISBN-13: 978-0-7459-6863-6, ISBN: 0-7459-6863-5

"Why is it that science has consistently thrived wherever the Christian faith can be found?
