Son of the Morning Sky explores the validity of the past and contemporary forms of spirituality, vis-a-vis the modern era's scientific outlook. Farley argues that the cosmologies of cultures that focus on "Father Sky" and "Mother Earth" are compatible with scientific perspectives that emphasize the interconnectedness of the universe and all living things. Included in his discussion of traditional cosmologies, his own search for fulfillment, and modern religious philosophy is an emphasis on the role that nature and transcendence play in illuminating self-consciousness and spirituality. Farley's insights will be of value to those interested in comparative religion or the scientific nature of religious thought as well as those who are wrestling with personal issues of faith and spirituality.
