<DIV><p>Known as one of the most outstanding theologians of the twentieth century, Wolfhart Pannenberg is also considered a great interdisciplinary thinker. Now, essays and articles on science and theology that are central to understanding Pannenberg's theories have been collected into one volume.</p><p>Niels Henrik Gregersen, a former student of Pannenberg and now professor of systematic theology at Copenhagen University, has compiled the writings in four sections: Methodology, Creation and Nature's Historicity, Religion and Anthropology, and Meaning and Metaphysics. Included in this volume are:</p> <ul> <li>Translations of Pannenberg's principled argument for the consonance between science and religion, including contingency and laws of nature, field theories and space-time, and divine action</li> <li>Translations of Pannenberg's theory of theology as a rational hypothetical science, including his discussions with leading British and American scholars such as A. N. Whitehead, John Cobb, and Langdon Gilkey</li> <li>Previously unpublished articles on the problems between science and theology in the course of modern history, explaining why chance may be more important for theology than design</li> <li>Translations of seminal articles that articulate Pannenberg's understanding of the role of religion in human nature</li> <li>One of the few theological articles on aggression as a psychological and social phenomenon</li> </ul><p>With this collection, the essays of this important contemporary theologian and his illuminating views are presented in one convenient volume.</p></DIV>
