Science and the Mind of the Maker: What the Conversation Between Faith and Science Reveals About God
Melissa Cain Travis points to powerful evidence that cosmology, astronomy, biochemistry, and other disciplines strongly support what she calls “The Maker Thesis,” which explains the origin, rationality, and intricacy of nature and the human mind’s capacity to comprehend it.
