Light of the Mind, Light of the World
Book • 2024
This book tells a daring new story about how humanity got to its current state and how we can chart a better path forward.
It surveys the history of science and faith from the astronomers of Babylon to the quantum physicists of postwar Europe and America.
Klavan argues that science is leading us not away from God but back to him, and to the ancient faith that places the human soul at the center of the universe.
He shows how the latest developments in physics can help shatter the illusion of materialism and how the search for knowledge of the natural world can illuminate the glories of its Creator.
