For many years, Wolfgang Smith has been putting forward an
expansive vision of the traditional Christian cosmos alongside an
incisive critique of the truncated perspective of contemporary
scientism. In Ancient Wisdom and Modern Misconceptions he shows how
the physical sciences, freed from prevailing misconceptions,
actually corroborate the traditional wisdom long thought to be
dead. Basing himself in part upon epistemological considerations
first enunciated by Sir Arthur Eddington, he shows that the
so-called physical universe proves finally to be constructed by the
strategies of the experimental physicist himself. Following this he
delves into the foundations of astrophysics and planetary
astronomy, and then proceeds to elucidate the concepts of
Intelligent Design and vertical causation. He concludes by showing
how Anthropic Coincidence should be rightly considered.
With equal mastery Smith presents the serious reader with
glimpses of the perennial wisdom eclipsed since the Enlightenment,
and shows that traditional cosmology, so far from being
disqualified, actually provides the keys to an understanding of
science itself. No one entering the fray of current debates
regarding "science and religion" can afford to neglect the immense
implications of this work by Wolfgang Smith.
