He makes a case for an enchanted secularism - a commitment to the value of the natural world and the human striving to understand it. Num Pages: 336 pages. BIC Classification: PDX; PSAJ. Category: (P) Professional & Vocational; (U) Tertiary Education (US: College). Dimension: 229 x 152 x 20. Weight in Grams: 457.
