"Can Science Dispense with Religion?" by Mehdi Golshani explores the often contentious relationship between science and religion, examining whether scientific progress and knowledge can exist independently of religious and spiritual insights. Golshani, an accomplished physicist and philosopher, investigates if religious values and principles contribute to scientific inquiry or if they are merely obstacles. Through a scholarly lens, he addresses the compatibility of scientific theories and spiritual beliefs, arguing that science and religion, while distinct, need not be in conflict. The book also delves into historical, philosophical, and cultural contexts to provide readers with a balanced view of how both realms have influenced human thought and discovery.
