4Title:  God and the atom   
 Creator:  Stenger, Victor J., 1935-2014 
 Notes:  Includes bibliographical references (pages 279-307) and index. Overview: This history of atomism, from Democritus to the recent discovery of the Higgs boson, chronicles one of the most successful scientific hypotheses ever devised, making the case that in the final analysis, atoms and the void are all that exists. Originating separately in both ancient Greece and India, the concept of the atom persisted for centuries, despite often running afoul of conventional thinking. Until the twentieth century, no direct evidence for atoms existed. Today it is possible to actually observe atoms using a scanning tunneling microscope. The book begins with the story of the earliest atomists-the ancient Greek philosophers Leucippus, Democritus, and Epicurus, and the Latin poet Lucretius. As the author notes, the idea of elementary particles as the foundation of reality had many opponents throughout history-from Aristotle to Christian theologians and even some nineteenth-century chemists and philosophers. While theists today accept that the evidence for the atomic theory of matter is overwhelming, they reject the atheistic implications of that theory.

5Title:  Atomism in late medieval philosophy and theology   
 Creator:  Grellard, Christophe. | Robert, Aurélien. 
 Publication:  Brill, Leiden, Boston, 2009. 
 Notes:  Includes bibliographical references (p. [235]-246) and indexes. "This book is the result of a collective attempt to give a general survey of atomism and its critics in the late Middle Ages. The contributors have focused on the thirteenth- and fourteenth-century atomists and anti-atomists, with a thorough examination of important figures like Nicholas of Autrecourt or John Wyclif, and lesser-known figures such as Gerard Odo or William Crathorn. From these essays, a new understanding of the discussions of atomism in late medieval philosophy and theology emerges."--BOOK JACKET.
