Synopsis

This is the first book in the Reflections on Reality series.

The Big Story: challenging the dichotomy of evolution and creation explains the way in which the purposeful process that has brought human beings into existence has taken place gradually over time and space.
It shows that the concepts of evolution and creation are not mutually exclusive.
Science and religion are shown to be two windows on one reality, two knowledge systems that when properly understood function as one cohesive whole.

This book is most suitable for readers 14 years and older. Younger readers will enjoy the bright and informative illustrations but will require support.

À propos des auteurs

Author of the Reflections on Reality series and publisher of Michelangela's books. Michael Cohen graduated as a Computer Systems Engineer in 1990 and worked for many years in software design and information systems. He changed careers in 2008 to become a Registered Nurse working in the area of Mental Health and Alcohol & Other Drugs. Michael has been a keen participant in and advocate of the programs offered by The Foundation for the Application and Teaching of the Sciences (FUNDAEC) and Institute for Studies in Global Prosperity (ISGP). He strives to contribute to processes and discourses leading to the progress of humankind toward a world society characterized by unity, justice and equity. A fundamental premise of Michael's worldview is that true science and true religion are necessarily in harmony, indeed are two windows on one reality. His writing seeks to promote understanding of this liberating concept and to contribute to a civilization that is ever advancing materially and spiritually. He currently lives in Lismore, Australia, with his family.
