The Marriage of Sense and Soul: Integrating Science and Religion by Ken Wilber, ISBN 0767903439 : There is arguably no more critical and pressing topic than the relationship between science and religion in the modern world. Science has given us the methods for discovering truth, while religion is the force that generates meaning. In The Marriage of Sense and Soul, Ken Wilber, one of today's most important philosophers, brilliantly articulates how we might begin to think about science and religion in ways that unite the spiritual, subjective world of ancient wisdom with the objective, empirical world of modern knowledge. Examining romantic, idealistic, and postmodern theories, he demonstrates how science is in fact compatible with the world's religious traditions and looks at the impact of this "philosophical Cold War" on the fate of humanity. In pointing the way to a union between truth and meaning, Ken Wilber has created an elegant, accessible book that is breathtaking in its scope and significance, and will guide readers to a more balanced, fulfilling life.

Rocks of Ages: Science and Religion in the Fullness of Life by Stephen Jay Gould, ISBN 034545040X : Writing with bracing intelligence and clarity, internationally renowned evolutionist and bestselling author Stephen Jay Gould sheds new light on a dilemma that has plagued thinking people since the Renaissance: the rift between science and religion. Instead of choosing them, Gould asks, why not opt for a golden mean that accords dignity and distinction to each realm? In his distinctively elegant style, Gould offers a lucid, contemporary principle that allows science and religion to coexist peacefully in a position of respectful noninterference. Science defines the natural world; religion our moral world in recognition of their separate spheres of influence. In exploring this thought-provoking concept, Gould delves into the history of science, sketching affecting portraits of scientists and moral leaders wrestling with matters of faith and reason. Stories of seminal figures such as Galileo, Darwin, and Thomas Henry Huxley make vivid his argument that individuals and cultures must cultivate both a life of the spirit and a life of rational inquiry in order to experience the fullness of being ...
