Peter Harrison is one of the leading scholars of science and religion. The former Andreas Idreos Professor of Science and Religion at Oxford University, he is Professor Emeritus at the University of Queensland and the Co-Director of our Meanings of Science Project. have been a long-time admirer of Peter’s work, and my own work builds on his scholarship.

This conversation was hosted by Samuel Loncar, Editor-in-Chief of the Marginalia Review of Books and the director of the Meanings of Science Project, funded by the Templeton World Charity Foundation.
