Index


This book touches on the timeless question as to whether God has left some sign of Himself in our Universe. Professor Brady's powerful arguments take the reader from the printed word of man to the imprinting word of God. As an experienced author and teacher, he strikes a careful balance between preserving scholastic abstraction and promoting the concrete examples contemporary readers demand.
He joins the pilgrimage of the believer seeking to increase his or her faith as well as the odyssey of the unbeliever in quest of a basis for belief.
A review for some people, an introduction for others
