"Voss's work is probing, suggestive, easy to read. She's done masterful work of bringing together disparate fields—a nice blend of science, philosophy, and religion. It shows extremely good use of a wide-range of significant sources. Original. Sincere." — Peter A. Pav, Eckerd College"The focus on science and religion alone would place this book into an arena of perennially significant works. The focus on mathematics, so widely misunderstood by both the initiated and the uninitiated, makes it all the more significant. The author also addresses the problem of metaphor in science, a topic of great concern in both literary theory circles and in the field of science and technology studies." — Sal Restivo, Rensselaer Polytechnic Institute
