Beyond Myths and Christians: Expanding and Correcting the Historical Record

This grant supported the project “Science and Religion Around the World,” which aimed to take a fresh look at the actual relationship between science and religion, dispelling the myths that continue to pass as historical truths. Oxford University Press published the 2007 conference proceedings as an edited volume. Another conference, “Myths of Science and Religion,” resulted in the publication of Galileo Goes to Jail and Other Myths about Science and Religion (2009).
