O knihe
Albert Einstein is often quoted as saying that "God does not
play dice," claiming an orderly and predictable structure to
the universe. Today, advances and presumptions in the field
of quantum mechanics pose a serious challenge to such a
position. It's a challenge not only for nuclear physicists but also for
Christian theologians who work to explain God's providence for the
world.
In Does God Roll Dice?, noted Jesuit scholar Joseph Bracken claims
that something like "directed chance" (Teilhard de Chardin) is God's
normal mode of operation in a world always perilously poised between
order and chaos. Bracken adopts the relatively new concept of self-organizing
or self-correcting systems out of the natural and social
sciences to deal with controversial issues in the ongoing religion and
science debate. At the same time, he deliberately keeps the language
and context of the book suitable for the intelligent nonprofessional reader.
