The subsequent section on 'Specific Encounters' includes some suggestive case studies, among which David Livingstone's exploration of the contrasting nature of Evangelical responses to evolution in Edinburgh, Belfast and Princeton repays particularly close attention. The final section of the book sets its subject matter in the wider intellectual context of moral philosophy, social science and 'the politics of the modern American academy'. In an intriguing Afterword, George Marsden imagines a dialogue between Enlightenment rationalism as represented by Thomas Jefferson, and Evangelical dogmatism upheld by the creationist William Jennings Bryan, moderated by the timeless probing questioning of Socrates. The essays in this volume are densely written and are appropriate more to the specialist than to the student seeking an introduction to the subject. By that very token, however, they succeed brilliantly in their essential purpose of demonstrating that the many encounters between Evangelicals and science, far from being a mere ideological Punch and Judy show, are deserving of the most careful investigation from historians and theologians alike.
