| 520 | 8 | |a The book begins with a discussion of Einstein's childhood religious education and the religious atmosphere -- or its absence -- among his family and friends. It then reconstructs, step by step, the intellectual development and led Einstein to the conceptions of a cosmic religion and an impersonal God, akin to "the God of Spinoza." Jammer explores Einstein's writings and lectures on religion and its role in society, and how far they have been accepted by the general public and by professional theologians like Paul Tillich or Frederick Ferre. He also analyzes the precise meaning of Einstein's famous dictum, "Science without religion is lame, religion without science is blind," and why this statement can serve as an epitome of Einstein's philosophy of religion | |
| 520 | 8 | |a The last chapter deals with the controversial question of whether Einstein's scientific work, and in particular his theory of relativity, has theologically significant implications, a problem important for those who are interested in the relation between science and religion. Both thought-provoking and engaging, this book aims to introduce readers, without proselytizing, to Einstein's religion | |
