Here is an unprecedented collection of twenty freewheeling and revealing interviews with major players in the ongoing--and increasingly heated--debate about the relationship between religion and science. These lively conversations cover the most important and interesting topics imaginable: the Big Bang, the origins of life, the nature of consciousness, the foundations of religion, the meaning of God, and much more.
In Atoms and Eden, Peabody Award-winning journalist Steve Paulson explores these topics with some of the most prominent public intellectuals of our time, including Richard Dawkins, Karen Armstrong, E. O. Wilson, Sam Harris, Elaine Pagels, Francis Collins, Daniel Dennett, Jane Goodall, Paul Davies, and Steven Weinberg. The interviewees include Christians, Buddhists, Jews, and Muslims, as well as agnostics, atheists, and other scholars who hold perspectives that are hard to categorize. Paulson's interviews sweep across a broad range of scientific disciplines--evolutionary biology, quantum physics, cosmology, and neuroscience--and also explore key issues in theology, religious history, and what William James called ''the varieties of religious experience.'' Collectively, these engaging dialogues cover the major issues that have often pitted science against religion--from the origins of the universe to debates about God, Darwin, the nature of reality, and the limits of human reason. These are complex, intellectually rich discussions, presented in an accessible and engaging manner. Most of these interviews were originally published as individual cover stories for Salon.com, where they generated a huge reader response. Public Radio's "To the Best of Our Knowledge" will present a major companion series on related topics this fall.
A feast of ideas and competing perspectives, this volume will appeal to scientists, spiritual seekers, and the intellectually curious.

They look just like the photo...fit and feel great!
Size: Large, Color: White/Gray (6 Pairs)
No complaints on these. They fit great, are supportive cotton, and look great. I was so used to the cheap Wal-Mart-bought fruit of the loom (think) ankle socks that I had no idea what I was missing. These are thicker, made better, and feel great. They even support the back of your foot from riding against your shoes. Because they are a bit thicker, they do make my feet hotter than before...but I've adjusted the shoe I wear to allow more breathability and don't wear them for long periods anyway. I live in Texas...we wear flip flops most of the year round. :)

Love these socks! They are absorptive, comfortable, supportive, attractive & great fitting!
Size: Medium, Color: White/Gray (6 Pairs)
These have been my go-to socks for almost 8 years now. I love that they are cotton, so they absorb sweat rather than give you that slimy feel you can get from polyester. They have great support in the mid foot and fit great due to the sizing. Just the right amount of padding and exhibiting an attractive low cut below the ankles. I highly recommend these socks. I hope this is helpful.
