 <description>&lt;p&gt;
While on vacation, I have read much of John Polkinghorne&amp;#39;s book &amp;quot;The Faith of a Physicist&amp;quot;, from his 1993-1994 Gifford lectures at Edinburgh.
&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;
Polkinghorne, at publication, was President of Queen&amp;#39;s College, Cambridge and Fellow of the Royal Society.  A former Professor of Mathematical Physics, he is also an ordained priest in the Church of England. 
&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;
While an Anglican, Polkinghorne takes full advantage of the well-vetted and time tested Nicene Creed in naming his chapters and evaluating Christian faith in light of the conjectures of modern physics.
&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;
I would say there are a few gems here but the reading is not for those seeking a quick and light diversion.  I certainly would not recommend it for vacation.
&lt;/p&gt;
