From Ted Wolfe, professional astrophotographer Scott Flaig explores the tenants of current science and traditional religion on the origin question with an eye on convergence. His chapter on time is particular good reading. From Brad Rogers, Associate Pastor, First Presbyterian Church of Bonita Springs, Florida Scott's book seeks answers to humanity's grandest and most existential questions in order to provide a Holistic Model of the universe in consultation with the disciplines of philosophy, theology and science - a truly remarkable task and fascinating book. From Dr. Doug Pratt, Pastor of First Presbyterian Church of Bonita Springs. Florida Scott takes us on a fascinating and enlightening journey of discovery through the greatest questions that have fascinated and puzzled mankind. This book has taught me, challenged some of my assumptions, reaffirmed some of my convictions and helped me to see things in fresh ways. It is invigorating to join with others like Scott Flaig in search of truth about the wonders of creation and our place in it.


Author Information

"Scott Flaig is a retired industry operations senior executive who served Dell Computer, Iomega Corporation, and Xerox. He was also a partner at the firm of Ernst & Young. After retirement, Scott taught a course on the Virtual Enterprise [his new paradigm for operations excellence] at the Kellogg School of Business, Northwestern University. Scott graduated with a BS in Mathematics from the University of Dubuque. He has his certification in operations strategy from Harvard's Business School's Executive summer program. Scott has been married 51 years to Sandy. They have three children and six grandchildren, all who live in New England. Over the past 12 years, Scott has again focused on his passion for cosmology, and how cosmology is fundamental to understanding the mysteries of creation, life, and our place in the universe. His first book, Cosmology: Faith and Science Reveal Universal Truth was published in 2013. Scott has served as a lecturer, FGCU faculty Instructor and writer. He has lectured across the spectrum of astronomy societies, churches, community organizations, and the past two years at the Chautauqua Institute. His commitment as a Christian and his academic theological curriculum at the University of Dubuque (a Presbyterian affiliation) has kept him grounded in what's important in life. He also understands the contribution that religion has made to the subject of cosmology and its mysteries. Science and faith together, along with the invaluable insights taken from philosophy, gives this book a unique place in the library of cosmology and understanding-or what Scott calls, ""holistic cosmology."" Typically books on this topic give academic insights into questions like: What is dark energy and dark matter? What is this God Particle? What are gravitational waves? What is the Big Bang and the inflationary universe? And so on. Other books tie faith and science together as synergistic and affirmations of each other. They make terrific contributions in gaining insights into God's creation."
