  • Christian Gnosis
    Wolfgang Smith
    Basing himself principally upon the teachings of Saint Paul and the Clementine Stromata, Wolfgang Smith distinguishes the idea of gnosis in nascent Christianity from its Gnostic counterfeit. After his initial considerations of the implications of authentic gnosis for cosmology-intimately connected to his work in the philosophy of physics-he finds the same considerations have be...

  • In Quest of Catholicity
    Wolfgang Smith
    In a two-year correspondence with Malachi Martin, Wolfgang Smith broaches a wide spectrum of topics, to which Fr. Martin responds in a way that may surprise many readers. What stands at issue is the meaning of authentic Catholicity-of the universality of Catholic truth. Theologians have long been stymied and misled by what Malachi Martin refers to as an 'intellectual impasse' t...

  • Ancient Wisdom and Modern Misconceptions
    Wolfgang Smith
    In this book Wolfgang Smith shows how the physical sciences, freed from prevailing misconceptions, actually corroborate a traditional wisdom long thought to be dead. Basing himself in part upon epistemological considerations first enunciated by Sir Arthur Eddington, he shows that the so-called physical universe proves finally to be constructed by the strategies of the experimen...

  • Theistic Evolution
    Wolfgang Smith
    The heady amalgam of Science and Christianity posited by Pierre Teilhard de Chardin-which struck the Catholic world like a whirlwind around the time of the Second Vatican Council and continues, however stealthily, to the present day-has rendered Catholics vulnerable to various heretical and heterodox tenets. This ideology clad in scientific garb is what Wolfgang Smith takes to ...

  • Physics
    Wolfgang Smith
    To the extent that modern physics possesses an ontology at all, it has tended to be the Cartesian doctrine of 'bifurcation.' Not only, however, does this thesis prove to be untenable, but since the advent of quantum theory it has rendered physics de facto incomprehensible. This book introduces an astoundingly uncomplicated and inherently Platonist ontology in which the quantum ...

  • Physics and Vertical Causation
    Wolfgang Smith
     Including new material on the metaphysics of the integral cosmos, the author accomplishes a magnificent reintegration of the physical sciences with a worldview banished in the West since the Enlightenment, which is nevertheless perfectly accommodative of legitimate scientific discovery. Far from being an academic or nostalgic curiosity, that forgotten worldview proves to be pr...

  • The Quantum Enigma
    Wolfgang Smith
     Following the overthrow of the classical world picture by the findings of quantum mechanics, physicists have proposed a broad gamut of alternative worldviews. This book begins with the major recognition that each of these suffers from a certain 'residual Cartesianism' that has been smuggled in unconsciously. It turns out that the moment one discards this hidden and problematic...

  • Science and Myth
    Wolfgang Smith
    Unrecognized and unacknowledged as the fact may be, science too has its mythology. Starting with a profound clarification of this basic issue, Wolfgang Smith goes on to explain the metaphysical significance of scientific findings relating to visual perception, the relation of neurons to mind, and much else, leading to the central chapter on Stephen Hawking’s bestselling book, T...

  • Cosmos and Transcendence
    Wolfgang Smith
    The book has a twofold content and aim: on the one hand it offers a radical critique of the modern world, and on the other it seeks to expound a timeless wisdom. And the second end presupposes the first: for so long as we have not ’broken through the barrier of scientistic belief’ as the subtitle has it, that timeless wisdom-that veritable sophia perennis-remains inaccessible.'...

  • The Vertical Ascent
    Wolfgang Smith
    What distinguishes this book from other contemporary treatises touching upon cosmology is its conception of the tripartite cosmos. This conception proves to be crucial to resolving three of the most baffling questions of contemporary science, beginning with the measurement problem of quantum theory. What is perhaps most astonishing of all, however, is the fact that this treatis...

  • Theistic Evolution
    Wolfgang Smith
    Darwin. Dawkins. Dennett. - This voluble triumvirate has gained oracular status for many scientists and laypersons in the contemporary world. But though the edifice of thought they have erected over and against tradition and faith has gained currency in today’s nihilistic mind, it is now rapidly eroding in the serious world of ideas. But what of that heady amalgam of Science an...

  • Faust
    Johann Wolfgang von Goethe / Mike Smith
    Faust occupies a central place in German literature, as the magnum opus of its greatest writer, as one of its greatest dramas, and as an epic poem of the highest quality, for, although it was written to be performed, it may also be regarded as a dramatic poem, prophetic perhaps of Berlioz’s hybrid musical adaptation in ’La Damnation de Faust’.The Faust story caught Goethe’s att...
