520 |a Science and Religion are two categories that are most discussed and most misunderstood in our times, especially within the Indian context. This book, Science and Religion in India: Beyond Disenchantment is an ethnographic study that focuses on epistemic questions surrounding what science and religion in India constitutes. I argue that since there is an everyday life to these categories, they should be understood beyond the hitherto bifurcative and binary reading. Drawing on biographical, autobiographical, historical, and ethnographic source materials, Science and Religion focuses on the scientists’ own religious lives and religious practices, and the different varieties of religious expressions. While my arguments problematise the idea of science and religion being naturally interconnected, I propose a need for the discussion to transcend the binary model of ‘conflict’ and ‘ complementarity’. By complicating the binary understanding and imagination of science and religion in India, my monograph engages with new ways of exploring these categories.
