What could be the role of religion in responding to the ecological crisis? Should we be concerned about the modification of food, and even of ourselves? Who do we trust to make decisions regarding our common future? What do we use our technology for? These are not questions for experts only. How can the wider public be involved? Do experts and the general public trust each other sufficiently? Or is the public ignorant, in the eyes of the scientists? And are too many engineers narrow minded, according to the general public? The contributors to this timely and necessary volume address expertise, trust and engagement, as we consider our technological condition , religious resources for the ecological crisis , biotechnology , and matters of trust between scientists and the general public. With contributions from leading scholars in the field, including James Miller from Queen's University, Canada and Tony Watling from the University College, London, this book will captivate a range of readers interested in the spirtitual dimension of our culture and society. 410 0$aLUP academic. 606 $aEcology$xReligious aspects 606 $aTechnology$xReligious aspects 615 0$aEcology$xReligious aspects. 615 0$aTechnology$xReligious aspects. 676 $a200 701 $aDrees$b Willem B.$f1954-$0879120 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bMiAaPQ 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910143132403321 996 $aTechnology, trust, and religion$91963219 997 $aUNINA
