Sumario:This article examines the role of theistic evolution in the work of three scholars: Christian theologian Keith Ward, rabbi and philosopher Jonathan Sacks, and Muslim physicist Nidhal Guessoum. Ward presents theistic evolution in a theological context, while Sacks and Guessoum present theistic evolution in broader contexts: Sacks as part of a reassessment of science and religion in western cultures, and Guessoum in arguing for a more sophisticated approach to science and religion within Islam. Their presentations of theistic evolution show the potential for theological and philosophical work concerning science and religion aimed at a popular audience which moves beyond the stubborn categories of conflict and independence or isolation.
