“There are many well-intentioned people to-day who will tell you that the conflict between science and religion is over. It is not so….The writing of this book has been no easy task. The chief purpose which I had in mind in doing so was to try to convince my readers of the essentially accidental and temporary nature of the present conflict between religion and science, and to bring them back to fundamentals—to remind them that science is fundamentally a method of interrogating and investigating nature, and religion fundamentally an attitude of mind.” - Summary by Author, preface
