<p>“Philip Comella, takes a fresh and bold look at the</p><p>debate between science and religion—and attempts to</p><p>go farther than any other book to unite them. For years,</p><p>we have been led to believe that the universe traces</p><p>its roots back to the Big Bang, a cataclysmic explosion</p><p>of ethereal energy that resulted in the formation of the</p><p>planets, stars, and everything in-between. Suppose,</p><p>though, that the cosmos wasn’t, in fact, borne of a random</p><p>eruption—but rather stems from the ever-evolving</p><p>imagination of a multi-dimensional dreaming mind?</p><p>Such a drastically different perspective would no doubt</p><p>change the way we see not only ourselves, but also our</p><p>place in the infinite realm of the universe. Such is the</p><p>central premise of</p><p><i><i>The Collapse of Materialism</i></i></p><p>. Probing,</p><p>well written, and thoroughly researched, Comella’s</p><p>insightful volume serves as a treatise on the popular</p><p>misconceptions that the world of science would lead us</p><p>to believe about the origins—and subsequent development—</p><p>of the universe. Comella paints the compelling</p><p>picture of life as a purposeful, directed means to an</p><p>end. Bolstered by a wide range of enlightening sources,</p><p>including religion, eastern philosophy—and science</p><p>itself—this book breaks important ground regarding the</p><p>limited purview of life as we’ve come to know it, encouraging</p><p>readers to explore the unfettered depths of a new</p><p>vision of universal purpose.”</p><p>—Dominique Sessons,</p><p><i>Apex Reviews</i></p>
