The fifth dimension

by John Harwood Hick

"Drawing on mystical and religious traditions ancient and modern, and spiritual thinkers as diverse as Julian of Norwich and Mahatma Gandhi, The Fifth Dimension is John Hick's eloquent argument for a more complete reality, in which a fifth, spiritual, dimension plays a central role. Updated in the light of recent global crises, including the war in Iraq and the 9/11 attacks, this new edition also addresses a variety of timeless issues, including the validity of religious experience, and the science versus religion debate. Erudite, provocative and deeply moving, Hick's persuasive narrative will surely prompt all curious readers to re-examine their own spiritual horizons."--BOOK JACKET.
