Reviews of The Wonder of the World (con't)

Congratulations on a fascinating book! I found The Wonder of the World to be a highly illuminating and thought-provoking discussion of all the important issues on the borderline between science and religion.
—Robert Jastrow
Founder of NASA’s Goddard Institute of Space Studies,
Director of the Mount Wilson Observatory
and author of God and the Astronomers

The Wonder of the World is an epoch-making and breathtaking treatise. Among Indian thinkers Varghese is much inspired by the great theistic philosopher Sri Madhvacharya. I have learnt a great deal from this giant work.
—BNK Sharma
Leading authority on the great Indian thinker Madhvacharya
and author of 23 books on Eastern thought

Varghese skillfully leads us through a scientific and philosophical description of our magnificent universe. Experiencing the wonder of our world is the surest path to realizing that a purely materialist answer to that question is both scientifi cally and philosophically inadequate.
— Gerald Schroeder
Israeli scientist and author of The Hidden Face of God:
How Science Reveals the Ultimate Truth

If one could only bring back the sense of enchantment of the natural world in our time in a society dominated by the scientism which is a product of modern science! I think that your book is a remarkable achievement for which I want to congratulate you. I hope that it will have a wide readership.
