Product Description Twentieth century science completely revolutionized human understanding of the world, rewriting the story of the universe with exciting discoveries and theories--the big bang, the relativity of space and time, the accelerating expansion of the universe, along with increasingly refined ideas of evolution and the origin of life. Radical Amazement unifies the worlds of science and religion, weaving profound spiritual lessons from our new knowledge. Through thoughtful and practical reflections, enhanced by prayers and meditations, Judy Cannato reveals the connectedness of all creation and invites us to explore the harmony of science and spirituality. Review "Today, there is no shortage of wonderful books on the marvel of creation, but Judy Cannato blends wonder and contemplation into a refreshing and timely synthesis." - Diarmuid O'Murchu; "You hold in your hands an important and challenging work. Science and Religion become companions as you contemplatively enter into a way of living that embraces the connectedness of all that is. Truly this book will evoke Radical Amazement in its readers." --Macrina Wiederkehr, O.S.B., author of Seven Sacred Pauses; "Judy Cannato's academic training, lively intelligence, and ability to simplify and synthesize science, theology, and spirituality make this book understandable. Her own amazement and awe at the wonders of The Holy One's creativity make it thoroughly enjoyable. Her experience as a spiritual director speaks eloquently to the heart and soul." --Patricia Peters, PhD, Retired professor of English, Scottsdale Community College in Scottsdale, Arizona About the Author Judy Cannato (1949-2011) was an author, retreat facilitator, and spiritual director best known for her work connecting the New Cosmology with Christian spirituality.
