(From his U of C Divinity School page) Stephen C. Meredith works on the
biophysics of protein structure... He also teaches courses... on James
Joyce’s *Ulysses*, and Dostoevsky’s *Brothers Karamazov*, and on the
problem of evil, focusing on St. Thomas Aquinas and Augustine. His main
theological interest is in the problem of evil. In this connection, he is
currently writing a book on philosophical (especially metaphysical) and
literary perspectives on disease. His current interests also center on the
impact of biotechnology and the genetic revolution on the definition of
human nature.
