Can a Darwinian Be a Christian?

Can someone who accepts Darwin''s theory of natural selection subscribe at the same time to the basic tenets of Christianity? Adopting a balanced perspective on the subject Michael Ruse argues that although it is at times difficult for a Darwinian to embrace Christian belief it is not inconceivable. Ruse has produced an important contribution to a sometimes overheated debate for anyone interested in seeking an informed and judicious guide to these issues. Michael Ruse is professor of philosophy and zoology at the University of Guelph in Ontario Canada. He is the author of many books on evolutionary biology. In addition he has published several hundred articles and many book reviews. He is the editor of the Cambridge Series in the Philosophy of Biology and founding editor of the journal IBiology & Philosophy. Hb ISBN (2000): 0-521-63144-0
