The road to wisdom : on truth, science, faith, and trust / by Collins, Francis S.,author.;
"In The Road to Wisdom, Francis Collins reminds us of the four core sources of judgment and clear thinking: truth, science, faith, and trust. Drawing on his work from the Human Genome Project and heading the National Institutes of Health, as well as on ethics, philosophy, and Christian theology, Collins makes a robust, thoughtful case for each of these sources -- their reliability, and their limits. Ultimately, he shows how they work together, not separately -- and certainly not in conflict. It is only when we relink these four foundations of wisdom that we can begin to discern the best path forward in life."--
