History of the Warfare of Science with Theology in Christendom
"History of the Warfare of Science with Theology in Christendom" by Andrew Dickson White is a two-volume work published in 1896. White, a founder of Cornell University, chronicles how science gradually freed itself from theological control across various fields. He examines conflicts over evolution, geography, astronomy, geology, and human antiquity, arguing that religious interference with science has harmed both domains, while unrestricted scientific investigation has benefited both religion and science alike.
