Klappentext zu „Beyond Science “
Science has been very successful at discovering the structure and history of the physical world. However, there is more to be told of scientific fact that can be gained from impersonal experimental tests.

'Polkinghorne has written an interesting, thought-provoking book ... a fascinating account.' The Times Higher Education Supplement 'Polkinghorne's literate sense of wonder at the magical richness of things shines out on almost every page, whether or not one agrees that it implies a creator.' David Mermin, Nature 'A thoughtful book for the mature upper sixth-former'. Andrew Lintern-Ball, School Science Review '... this is an admirable book'. Chris Clarke, Physics World
