WHAT OTHERS HAVE SAID ABOUT THIS BOOK:
· "BEAUTIFUL DUALITY: Exploring Science's Fit with Art, Religion… Can humanity reconcile two of its deepest drives: the drive to understand the things we see, and to understand the things we feel? If so, that would be beautiful indeed.” David Brooks, Nashua Telegraph.
· “Whether a reader is interested in beauty, in nature, in science, in technology, in religion/spirituality/theology, or in all of them, Paul Carr's exquisitely illustrated volume is bound to provide intellectual enrichment and aesthetic enjoyment." Dr. -Ing. Dr. theol. K. Helmut Reich, Ph. D., Professor, Rutherford University & Senior Research Fellow Emeritus, University of Fribourg, Switzerland.
· "A most interesting and uplifting read on the connections of beauty in science and spirit. I shall savor it often. I love the poem in the beginning." Shirley O. Wood, Professor Emeritus of Nursing, Kent State University, Ohio
"This book gives insightful direction and perspectives for updating traditional concepts with contemporary knowledge. A feeling of beauty occurs when several different perspectives fall together coherently." Paul Ulbrich, D. O. Fellow, American College of Emergency Physicians, Retired, Davis, CA.
"Paul Carr’s book is filled with wonderful provocative source material for our reflection upon beauty. He recognizes its 'delicate dance between mystical, subjective revelations and the mathematical, objective processes that maintain the universe and life….' In this delicate balance, beauty sharpens our sense of what both our subjective life and the objective world can become--harbinger of the future…. All who share in the dance will find riches in this book." From FOREWORD by Philip Hefner, Professor of Systematic Theology Emeritus, Lutheran School of Theology at Chicago
