In his encyclical Fides et Ratio, St. John Paul II compared faith and reason to two wings “on which the human spirit rises to the contemplation of truth.” The thesis of this fine book not only supports that faith and reason are allies in seeking the fullness of truth, but reveals how this collaboration takes place in practice, examining classic and contemporary questions about God and science using both “wings.” It gets a bit philosophical in places yet remains relatively accessible, such that immense insight and understanding of the subject can be gained by engaged and thoughtful readers.
