Judaism's Encounter with Science, Cosmology & Evolution

The Challenge of Creation is a thoroughly revised and vastly expanded version of Rabbi Slifkin's controversial book The Science of Torah (read about it in the NY Times ). It is a fascinating look at the profound topics of the nature of scientific laws, the age of the universe, and the evolution of life.

The Challenge Of Creation discusses a range of approaches to Torah and science, and also presents its own unified approach to all these issues. It shows that Judaism can approach these topics in a sophisticated and honest manner, without being either dogmatic or apologetic. The Challenge of Creation is an essential read for every thinking Jew.
