Describing the Hand of God

Meer over het boek

Exploring the intricate relationship between theology and science, the book delves into the evolution of modern concepts of divine agency. It highlights three pivotal influences from early modernity: late medieval perfect-being theology, the dual revelation of God through nature and scripture, and the Augustinian doctrine of inspiration. The latter's implications for understanding divine agency in humans are extended to encompass nature, presenting a nuanced perspective on how these ideas interact and shape contemporary thought.
