When Copernicus, Galileo, and Kepler – all deeply religious – dislodged the earth from the center of the universe, science and religion separated. Darwin’s theory of evolution brought outright divorce. But now, as Pruett writes, a third scientific revolution promises the reconciliation of reason and intuition by bringing a new dimension of spirituality to our scientific understanding of the cosmos – and to the unique place of humans in it.

Reason and Wonder embraces the insights of modern science and the wisdom of spiritual traditions to re-enchant the universe and to provide a new myth of meaning appropriate to the current era. The new myth, which unfolds through the stories of three successive Copernican revolutions – cosmological, biological, and spiritual – offers both an expansive view of human potential and hope for a future currently in grave jeopardy.
