How God Acts: Creation, Redemption, and Special Divine Action (Theology and the Sciences)
"In this marvelous book Denis Edwards, a key contributor to 'theology and science' today, demonstrates how our understanding of God's special action in the world such as the incarnation, resurrection, miracles, God's answering prayer can be given fresh and invigorating illumination as 'non-interventionist' and 'participatory' by drawing on the insights of Karl Rahner, Thomas Aquinas, and Athanasius in dialogue with the natural sciences. The result is the beginning of a consistent integrated model of divine action with these sciences. Edwards's book should be required reading for scholars and non-technical readers interested in the growing dialogue between theology and science." --Robert John Russell, Ian G. Barbour Professor of Theology and Science, Graduate Theological Union, Berkeley Founder and Director of the Center for Theology and the Natural Sciences
