How Was Science–Faith Conflict Written into History? A Review of “Flat Earths and Footnotes”

Flat Earths and Fake Footnotes: The Strange Tale of How the Conflict of Science and Christianity Was Written into History by Derrick Peterson argues that there is no such thing as the “history of the conflict of science and Christianity,” and aims to show how the myths of science and Christianity were constructed, collected together, and eventually debunked.

In Robert Brennan‘s review, he says:

“This book is another which contributes to the growing collection of works that revises and demolishes the myth of the warfare of science and religion. Peterson’s style is easy reading, detailed, and at times ironic and humorous. This book can be read by any interested lay reader, although the detail and research will be useful to academic readers.”
