<br/><br/> Booklist starred  Kirkus Review 
<br/><br/> Examines the ways scientific discoveries have transformed interpretations of God and religious faith since the seventeenth century, exploring several faiths, arguing that religions secretly fear science will "explain God away," and discussing the relationship between twenty-first-century technology and theology, calling for religion to separate itself in order to strengthen itself.
