ISLAM, SCIENCE, MUSLIMS AND TECHNOLOGY ILY Seyyed Hossein Nasr in Conversation with Muzaffar Iqbal This important document brings into sharp relief important dilemmas faced by the Muslim world today, especially in reference to modern science and technology. In four focused conversations Seyyed Hossein Nasr responds to Muzaffar Iqbal in exploring Islamic views on the origin of the cosmos and life, various ‘ dimensions of the relationship between Islam and science, Muslim attitudes toward modern science and technology, and the environmental crisis. At the heart of these wide-ringing conversations is what can perhaps be called the most pressing issue of our times: the future course of Islamic civilization. By situating Islamic responses to modern science and technology within the historic encounter of Islamic civilization with the post-Renaissance Western civilization, the book provides reflective insights into the challenges faced by Islamic civilization as it struggles to preserve its spiritual character and tradition. Islam, Science, Muslims and Technology is accessible to both the general reader and the specialist. It provides a theoretical frame-work for understanding the nature of the dilemmas faced by the Muslim world, while also suggesting practical solutions. The book opens numerous paths for readers to gain deeper insights into some of the most important issues of our times.
