商品描述

This book explores and sheds light on the contemporary discourse between science and religion. Employing the methodological approach of modern science, Overcoming Reductionism aims to explain natural phenomena not in isolation from philosophical or theological interpretations. The book then focuses on the concept of pain. Although pain is a phenomenon familiar to all humans, defining it exclusively in terms of nociception proves challenging. This book therefore delves into the intricate nature of the phenomenon, critically acknowledging the way pain profoundly influences the construction of one's existential meaning, particularly concerning matters of faith.

商品描述(中文翻譯)

本書探討並闡明了科學與宗教之間的當代論述。《超越還原主義》採用現代科學的方法論,旨在解釋自然現象時不僅僅從哲學或神學的角度來看。該書隨後專注於痛苦的概念。儘管痛苦是所有人都熟悉的現象,但僅僅從痛覺來定義它是具有挑戰性的。因此,本書深入探討了這一現象的複雜性,批判性地認識到痛苦如何深刻地影響著個體對存在意義的建構,特別是涉及信仰問題。
