Two themes to which we often return on this program are faith and fact. Or, more specifically, religion and science. Dr. Jerry Coyne--always a remarkable interview--has just had published another supremely fascinating book, Faith Versus Fact: Why Science and Religion are Incompatible. You should read his previous influential work, Why Evolution is True. Coyne is highly knowledgeable of religion and a leader in his own field, and handles opposition to his views with sobriety and forcefulness. An added bonus to this interview were several humorous exchanges with callers and emailers.
