About the Book

In Decoding the Cosmos, Dr. Emily Qureshi-Hurst (University of Cambridge) takes five of Christianity's most important ideas--creation, design, providence, incarnation, and salvation--and examines them in light of cutting-edge physics. Expertly compiling a decade of research into an accessible and engaging format, Qureshi-Hurst takes readers on a journey through Big Bang cosmology, quantum mechanics, special and general relativity, chaos theory, astrobiology, and more. As a result, Decoding the Cosmos offers a deep dive into one of theology's most lively and fascinating areas: science and religion. Exploring some of the most important philosophical and theological questions facing us today, the book asks: Can Christian theology thrive in the modern scientific world?

Review :
"An accessible and engaging exploration of recent turns in the dialogue between science and theology, offering an excellent entry point into these fascinating discussions." --Alister E. McGrath, Emeritus Andreas Idreos Professor of Science and Religion, University of Oxford "Physics and theology offer two ways of describing the same world, the first using mathematics and the second appealing to stories setting out the divine purposes for human beings and the created order as a whole. In this lively, accessible, and rigorous book, Emily Qureshi-Hurst shows clearly and compellingly how Christian doctrines can be brought into new focus when their vision of reality is brought into dialogue with that of contemporary physics." --Mark Wynn, Nolloth Professor of the Philosophy of the Christian Religion, University of Oxford "As a self-professed atheist, Emily Qureshi-Hurst is an unusual and compelling advocate for reasoned dialogue between physics and Christian faith. Qureshi-Hurst does not shy away from exposing problems on either side of the dialogue, but she is equally generous in pointing to solutions which take the science and the faith seriously. This is a valuable and balanced introduction to a contemporary debate which has become all too polarized." --Mark Harris, Andreas Idreos Professor of Science and Religion, University of Oxford
