From Science to Faith: Using a Scientific Approach to Strengthen Faith (Paperback)
Despite religion and science being an obvious study they are usually presented at odds with one another. This book urges the reader to think with science in order to rationalise faith, rather than the other way around.
Born Christian, a convert to Islam, the author started this journey of writing in a pursuit to find the meaning of this world as well as inner peace. Upon his extensive research, his academic background aided him in validating his spiritual quest. This book depicts a beautiful spiritual journey all the while marvelling at scientific facts.
Adrien Chauvet was born and raised in France, in a small village of Soultz-les-Bains. He was educated in a society in which science prevailed over all other forms of knowledge. Accordingly, he began his intellectual journey studying the natural sciences at Louis Pasteur in Strasbourg, France. At the age of 21, he travelled to the United States to pursue his studies, convinced that science was the ultimate way of knowing the world. He obtained his Doctor in Philosophy in Physics from Purdue University. During his studies, Adrien had the opportunity to interact with American Muslims communities. The Islam he discovered not only resonated with his Christian upbringing, but also appeared to coincide with his scientific view of the world. Adrien embraced Islam at the age of 24. He then progressed in his scientific career, while seeking to refine the convergence of science and Islam. This book recounts Adrien's journey of bringing together science and faith.
