THE WISDOM OF ANCIENT COSMOLOGY Contemporary Science in Light of Tradition Wolfgang Smith “This ground-breaking work is one of the most salient and challenging books to have appeared in our times on the meaning of traditional cosmologies and the critique of prevalent philosophical interpretation of modern science on the basis of traditional metaphysical and theological teachings.” — S. H. Nasr *** The information provided by quantum physics is so paradoxical that it cannot be integrated into a realistic and intelligible theory built on modern conceptual resources alone and many among the greatest physicists, such as Niels Bohr or Werner Heisenberg, have been very much aware of this fact… Wolfgang Smith reminds us of these primary truths with the authority of a recognized scientist and the full resources of his broad philosophic and religious culture and shows, with simplicity and sometimes with much humor, that Bultmann has chosen the wrong object: it is not religion but the customary interpretation of science that needs to be “demythologized.” Only the doctrine of the philosophia perennis is able to accomplish this, and thereby to disclose the full truth of science itself. In the present crisis, in which Christian thought is split between an impossible fideism and its confinement to moral problems, Wolfgang Smith’s book discloses a liberating perspective which, in the name of science itself, restores to faith its entire truth. It would be hard to exaggerate the importance of such a work.
