Borderlands of Science is a non-fiction book written by Alfred Still. The book explores the intersection between science and religion, and the various ways in which they overlap and interact. Still argues that science and religion are not mutually exclusive, but rather that they can complement each other and provide a more complete understanding of the world around us.The book is divided into several chapters, each of which focuses on a different aspect of the relationship between science and religion. Topics covered include the history of science and religion, the role of faith in scientific discovery, the impact of science on religious belief, and the ethical implications of scientific research.Throughout the book, Still draws on examples from a wide range of disciplines to illustrate his points. He cites examples from biology, physics, astronomy, and other fields to show how scientific discoveries have challenged traditional religious beliefs, but also how they have provided new insights into the nature of the universe and our place in it.Overall, Borderlands of Science is a thought-provoking and insightful exploration of the complex relationship between science and religion. It is a must-read for anyone interested in the philosophy of science, the history of ideas, or the intersection between faith and reason.This book is not a history of science; neither is it a history of magic; it is an attempt to evaluate the influence on civilization of both science and superstition, knowledge and belief, and to consider critically those borderland phenomena which the scientist rarely investigates notwithstanding that they occur in the natural world which he shares with the unreasoning multitude.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations. Because we believe this work is culturally important, we have made it available as part of our commitment for protecting, preserving, and promoting the world's literature in affordable, high quality, modern editions, that are true to their original work.
