As a self-described "scientific person," Robert J. Wright is curious about how things work on our earth--how the various forces of nature have produced the wonderful world that each of us is privileged to inhabit for a speck of time. As a self-described "religious person," he also believes in God as the Creator of all that is. While pursuing a varied career as a geologist, Dr. Wright found himself musing about the causes of the science-religion conflict. During the last dozen years, he has actively read, studied, talked listened, discussed, and lectured about the conflict. His objective is nothing less than to "seek paths toward mending the rift." In the compact, engaging, How to Mend the Science-Religion Rift, we can learn about the historical cause of the rift, explained in short accounts of key events during four centuries. Then, through news making events during 2005, Dr. Wright explains the rift in the United States during the present century. Finally, he outlines thoughts on mending the rift and easing the burden.
