""The Prism of Truth offers a brilliant, erudite case for the importance of going beyond the natural and social sciences in order to explore the depth, power, and meaning of religious and secular narratives or myths (including Christian and Islamic traditions). Anthony O'Hear's unrivaled expertise in philosophy of science, philosophy of art and literature, and the theory of values makes this book a mature, provocative contribution to our thinking about the nature and breadth of truth."" --Charles Taliaferro, professor emeritus of philosophy, St. Olaf College ""Lucid, erudite, humane, The Prism of Truth mounts a powerful argument against the scientific reductionism that dominates much of our contemporary culture and enters a passionate plea for the enduring power of myth as a vehicle that lifts us toward the transcendent."" --John Cottingham, professor emeritus of philosophy, University of Reading ""The Prism of Truth is an outstanding and accessible defense of the centrality of myth, not as imperfect truth but as the very grounding and essential expression of truth in science, religion, and life."" --Andrew Pinsent, research director, Ian Ramsey Centre for Science and Religion, University of Oxford
