Stanley Jaki: Science and Faith in a realist perspective
Alessandro Giostra
This collection of essays deals with Jaki’s key ideas. His conclusions can be considered a reaction to the dogmatic assumptions of naturalistic scientism, and a denial of simplistic reconstructions based on mainstream viewpoints. So this book proves helpful to readers who aim at acquiring an unbiased knowledge of the science-faith interaction.
Stanley L. Jaki (1924-2009) was a world-renowned historian of scientific thought, with more than fifty books to his credit. He was Distinguished Professor at Seton Hall University and winner of the Templeton Prize for 1987.
Alessandro Giostra is a teacher of Philosophy and History in Italian high schools. Author of about 170 publications, he has a long-standing interest in the relationship between science and Christian faith. That is why Jaki’s thought has occupied a prominent place in his personal research.
