The Problem of Creation (Classic Reprint): An Attempt to Define the Character and Trend of the Cosmic Process: An Attempt to Define the Character and Trend of the Cosmic Process (Classic Reprint) - Softcover

Inhaltsangabe

Explore how science and philosophy redefine the cosmos—unity, process, and design. This thoughtful work surveys how the universe can be understood as a single, interacting system where mind, matter, and life influence one another. It argues for the unity of nature beyond physics alone and considers how laws, will, and intention might be read into the very fabric of the cosmos.

Written as an attempt to define the character and trend of the cosmic process, the book blends ideas from physics, metaphysics, and theology. It challenges simple standpoints about energy, creation, and design, offering a nuanced view that seeks to reconcile observed harmony with the mystery of origins. The discussion moves from old teleology toward a broader claim: that purpose and order may emerge from the fullness of the cosmic whole, not just from human-made analogies.

• See how unity of Nature is linked to our own self-conscious experience and how this relation shapes our view of the cosmos.


• Learn why traditional design arguments are reinterpreted in light of contemporary cosmology and philosophy.


• Explore questions about energy, matter, life, and the role of mind in the evolution of the universe.


• Consider how concepts like law, causation, and freedom relate to the cosmic process as a whole.

Ideal for readers curious about how science, philosophy, and spirituality intersect in explanations of creation and the universe.
