      abstract = {If we want nonscientists and opinion-makers in the press,  the lab, and the pulpit to take a fresh look at the  relationship between science and religion, Ronald L.  Numbers suggests that we must first dispense with the hoary  myths that have masqueraded too long as historical truths.  Until about the 1970s, the dominant narrative in the  history of science had long been that of science  triumphant, and science at war with religion. But a new  generation of historians both of science and of the church  began to examine episodes in the history of science and  religion through the values and knowledge of the actors  themselves. Now Ronald Numbers has recruited the leading  scholars in this new history of science to puncture the  myths, from Galileo's incarceration to Darwin's deathbed  conversion to Einstein's belief in a personal God who  "didn't play dice with the universe." The picture of  science and religion at each other's throats persists in  mainstream media and scholarly journals, but each chapter  in Galileo Goes to Jail shows how much we have to gain by  seeing beyond the myths.},
