Dr. Francis Collins, head of the Human Genome Project, is one of the world's leading scientists, yet he is also a man of unshakable faith in God and scripture. Dr. Collins has resolved the dilemma that haunts everyone who believes in God and respects science. Faith in God and faith in science can be harmonious, not separately but together, combined into one worldview. For Collins, science does not conflict with the Bible, science enhances it.

Science vs God is a false dichotomy
Revisado: 11-26-15
Listened to this on my drive from Chicago to Denver yesterday, and greatly enjoyed it. Love it when audio books are read by the actual author, so that I can feel exactly what he means. His main thesis is that we should embrace all truth, but that the tools of science aren't capable of answering the meta questions having to do with the meaning and purpose of life. Collins is a physical chemist, physician and geneticist. He tells the fascinating story of how he ended up leading the human genome project that not only mapped the 3.1 billion letters of human genetic code, but insisted that it all become public domain. (There was a private company competing with this project and wanting to patent the information.) The two apendices, on bioethics and on applying DNA research to real health issues, were especially worthwhile.
