To read Wolfgang Smith is to encounter that rara avis: someone deeply versed in science and religion. Whereas most who stand on the side of religion lack the technical expertise to know science 'from inside,' scientists and writers on science are, as a rule, blind to their own metaphysical assumptions, and woefully inept when it comes to subtle metaphysical points. Not so for Professor Smith, who moves easily between these two essential ways of knowing: between the core twentiethcentury discipline of physics, and metaphysical doctrine as articulated by the sapiential traditions of mankind.In Science & Myth the author shows that science too has its mythology, unrecognized and unacknowledged though the fact be. Starting with a profound clarification of this basic issue he goes on to explain the metaphysical significance of scientific findings relating to visual perception, the relation of neurons to mind, and much else, all of which leads up to the central chapter on Stephen Hawking's bestselling book, The Grand Design. Professor Smith first presents Hawking's case, summarizing his entire argument in which Hawking claims that the very existence of the universe can be explained on scientific grounds and then proceeds with a magisterial pointbypoint rebuttal that leaves his grand thesis in tatters. Science & Myth is a mustread for all those concerned with contemporary issues of science and religion.
