Using Simone Weil's philosophy of science and mathematics as an introduction to the thought of one of the most powerful philosophical and theological minds of the twentieth century, the author investigates Weil's earliest texts on science, in which she lays the foundation for a conception of science rooted in basic human concerns and activities.
"This book explores what prayer is NOT and what it "might be," from the perspective of someone who doesn't believe in traditional Christian notions of God (progressive Christians). What might prayer mean for someone who doesn't believe in some sort of "being" out there, somewhere. Thus the book may also appeal to agnostics and other so-called "non-believers.""-- Provided by publisher
