內容簡介

Writing in what Publishers Weekly called "riskily mellifluous language," Salzman (English, Missouri Southern State U.) collects 25 of his creative nonfiction essays. The title essay makes astute observations about how physics and religion both seek to understand the ambiguities of our relationship to the transcendent. But he wonders why scientists don't go door-to-door proselytizing like Jehovah's witnesses! In "Wunderkindergarten," solving equations refers to child prodigies. With many scientific and literary allusions, his other wide-ranging subjects include the mind-body problem, car culture, and works of Dante and Henry James.
