| Résumé : |
Two ways of seeing heaven. Two ways of seeing man. These short passages reveal two entirely different ways of viewing the universe. One may be the universe you live in, the other a universe next door.
Dr James W Sire presents a book of many universes, each fashioned by words and concepts that work together to form a world view. He shows the historical roots of current world views and brings each under careful criticism. |
