Support for the Second Wave of the National Study of Religion and Human Origins

Dr. Jonathan Hill

Dr. Jonathan Hill is working on an expansion of his current work on the social context of beliefs about religion, science, and human origins. This project extends his research on human origins into an exploration of the American public’s general conceptions of the nature and purposes of science, the bounds of scientific and religious knowledge, and the nature of the overlap between these domains. The primary output from this project will be a university press book. Secondary outputs will include essays and editorials for general audiences, peer reviewed journal articles, and professional and popular presentations of the findings.
