About the Author:
John Hick is the author of numerous books, many of which have become classics in their field. He is currently a Fellow of the Institute for Advanced Research in Arts and Social Sciences at the University of Birmingham.
From Library Journal:
Noted theologian Hick believes that humans are living in such a highly technological "Western" culture that we have accepted an exclusively humanistic/scientific account of our existence and ignored the importance of the "fifth dimension"Aour spirituality and its influences upon our lives. To this end, Hick's long, rambling book, borrowing liberally and heavily from all world religions, considers our spiritual nature and its importance to our well-being. Deeply, intelligently, and passionately, he explores the meaning of life as stated by different faiths, the nature and validity of religious experiences, and the necessary influence of the spiritual over the physical. His general premise leaves little room for argument, though, which makes for a less engaging book. He is preaching to the converted, giving them arguments to use against those who raise the scientific over the religious. Yet the book does a good job of reiterating its major theme and can be read for enjoyment by those interested in spirituality. Marginally recommended for all libraries.AGlenn Masuchika, Chaminade Univ. of Honolulu

Book Description Paperback. Condition: Very Good. Many people today, living in our highly technological western culture, are all too willing to accept a humanist and scientific account of the universe which considers human existence as a fleeting accident. The triumph of John Hick's gripping work is his exposure of the total inadequacy of this view. Drawing on mystical and religious traditions ancient and modern, as well as spiritual thinkers as diverse as Julian of Norwich and Mahatma Gandhi, he has produced a thorough, readable and acutely argued case for a bigger, more complete, picture of reality, in which a fifth, spiritual dimension plays a central role. In the second edition of this innovative book, Hick offers a new exploration of the science-religion debate, together with discussion of the impact of recent terrorism, in addition to coverage of timeless spiritual issues such as the meaning of life and what makes a saint saintly. The book has been read, but is in excellent condition. Pages are intact and not marred by notes or highlighting. The spine remains undamaged. Seller Inventory # GOR001726926
