Can science explain everything? 

Many people think so. Science, and the technologies it has spawned, has delivered so much to the world: clean water; more food; better healthcare; longer life. And we live in a time of rapid scientific progress that holds enormous promise for many of the problems we face as humankind. So much so, in fact, that many see no need or use for religion and belief systems that offer us answers to the mysteries of our universe. Science has explained it, they assume. Science and religion just do not mix.

Oxford Maths Professor and Christian believer Prof. John Lennox offers a fresh way of thinking about science and Christianity that dispels the common misconceptions about both. He reveals that not only are they not opposed, but they can and must mix to give us a fuller understanding of the universe and the meaning of our existence.
John Lennox is Professor of Mathematics at the University of Oxford and Fellow in Mathematics and Philosophy of Science at Green Templeton College. He lectures on Faith and Science for the Oxford Centre for Christian Apologetics.He is particularly interested in the interface of Science, Philosophy and Theology. Lennox has been part of numerous public debates defending the Christian faith. He debated Richard Dawkins on "The God Delusion" in the University of Alabama (2007) and on "Has Science buried God?" in the Oxford Museum of Natural History (2008). He has also debated Christopher Hitchens on the New Atheism (Edinburgh Festival, 2008) and the question of "Is God Great?" (Stamford University, 2010), as well as Peter Singer on the topic of "Is there a God?" (Melbourne, 2011). John is the author of a number of books on the relationship between science, religion and ethics. He and his wife Sally live near Oxford.
Endorsements (${ productEndorsements.length })

“John Lennox is the ideal guide for those who wish to examine the relationship between science and religion. He himself combines a brilliant scientific mind with a strong Christian faith – and is a superb communicator. This book is a remarkable achievement: engaging with all the big issues in just a few pages, while remaining profound, accessible, engaging and, to my mind, completely compelling.”

Vaughan Roberts

Author, “God’s Big Picture”

“Clear, fresh and brilliantly simple, John Lennox answers questions, dispels myths, and clarifies controversies like the seasoned master of the subject that he is—and all in an admirably irenic style. I highly recommend 'Can Science Explain Everything?'”

Dr. Os Guinness

Author, “Fool’s Talk”

“An easy read about a difficult issue. Simple without being simplistic, Lennox’s book is a clear, understandable entry point for anyone interested in a controversial field that is often filled with technical phrasing and obscurantism. In this highly accessible volume, Lennox skillfully expounds the rationality of Christian belief given the evidence from science.”

Dr. Ransom H. Poythress

Assistant Professor of Biology, Houghton College, NY
