Masks of the Universe

Meer over het boek

Exploring the interplay of science, philosophy, and religion in cosmology, Edward Harrison examines how humanity's understanding of the universe has evolved through time. He discusses how each era's insights, from ancient philosophical views to modern scientific approaches, create "masks" that obscure the true nature of the cosmos. Harrison questions whether contemporary beliefs represent genuine knowledge or merely another layer of misunderstanding. His extensive academic background lends credibility to this thought-provoking inquiry into humanity's quest for cosmic truth.
