Beschreibung
"An introduction to some groundbreaking Quaker scientists, and an exploration of some of the resonances between science and Quakerism, which has a rich tradition of engagement with science and produced many notable amateur and eminent professional scientists in fields ranging from psychology to physics.

The distinctive Quaker emphasis on deeds not creeds has meant that Quaker scientists have been particularly interested in the ethical questions raised by science and that the emphasis on continual revelation has meant that they have welcomed the opportunity to reformulate their religious beliefs in the face of new scientific discoveries"--
