Book Synopsis Science, Religion, and Mormon Cosmology by : Erich Robert Paul
Book excerpt: Merrill, who urged a unique vision of reality that shaped a Mormon eschatology. He shows how authorities eventually retreated from the perception of reality as "true" and adopted a scientifically less secure position in order to protect their theology, an eventuality which ultimately resulted in a reactionary response to science within Mormonism.
