Beschreibung
This eloquent volume reconciles our contemporary scientific understanding of reality with our timeless spiritual yearnings. Addressing ideas like evolution, emotions, sexuality, and death, The Sacred Depths of Nature allows even non-scientists to appreciate that the origins of life and the universe are no less meaningful in light of our scientific understanding of them. This new edition offers a deepened consideration of emergent properties and emergent dynamics, as well as an exploration of their role as the generators of life's complexity. Goodenough also expands upon the ethic of ecomorality in a new chapter, and incorporates new quotes, figures, and poems in her analysis.
