This is a unique, enlightening, chronological account of the development of modern physics through quantum mechanics. 75% of the content will not be found in textbooks because it concentrates on the personal history, philosophy, and theology of the scientists involved. Faries is also masterful at bringing his own theology into the discussion of quantum mechanics, letting them inform each other about a series of unresolved paradoxes. --William Wharton, Emeritus Professor of Physics, Wheaton College, Wheaton, Illinois This is a knowledgeable, credible, and challenging account that brings scientific causality and human life decisions and involvement into the ultimate definition of reality. Faries sets forth a beautiful example of how a meticulous, informed science and a committed, orthodox Christian faith can reason together in a harmonious manner. --Alan F. Johnson, Professor of New Testament and Christian Doctrine, Wheaton College and Graduate School, Wheaton, Illinois I've never had a conversation with Dillard Faries in which I didn't come away with a deeper insight into Scripture or physics or whatever we happened to be talking about. This book has the same effect, with a subject that boggles the mind with the mysterium tremendum of the known universe. --Mark Galli, Editor in Chief of Christianity Today
