The introduction, in its defense of forms and elements over atomic theory, has a continuing influence on how I view science and religion. More specifically, we don't know everything, so trying to connect religion and science without inflicting our own limitations on the explanation is at best pointless.

The main text is very interesting and the author's discussion is as informative as it is influential.

A powerhouse work of intellectual credulity this was quite the read, which I made it with the assistance of Serial Reader.
He is certainly a clever geezer, and yet, he didn't land on Jesus as Messiah.
A great read, and yet there is that sadness there all the way as you read it.
