 | | It has long been held that the interests of science and religion are basically antagonistic—that religion is more often than not the enemy of science, and that science by its very nature inevitably undermines the foundations of religion. |
 | | The major intent of The History of Science and Religion, however, is to show the limitations of these overly simplified views of science and religion, and to demonstrate that in fact, upon closer scrutiny, the relationship between the two is more complex, positive, and constructive than commonly believed. |
