Have you ever wanted to understand everything?All of it? From orangutans to the 2020 political cycle? Well, this book series strives to do just that, beginning in antediluvian events and chasing history through to the modern day!The art of understanding the entire universe begins with the art of, well, understanding, so that’s where this book begins. Epistemology and knowledge. It’s not a description of the cosmos, but a method, or a lens through which we see. This book is a sort of introduction to Ethan's ‘lens.’ My prescription may change over time, with more experience and education, but I’m 30 years old now, so I think I know darn near as much as possible.Learning about the entire universe has never been so fun!
A refreshingly real Christian perspective. I especially enjoyed learning more about the 'how we understand' part - how different people approach knowledge and understanding, and how that leads to different worldviews. Insightful stuff. I also appreciated the more casual style it's written in - think stream of consciousness, reminiscent of blog posts, but the kind that leave you questioning your own opinions and choices. Also, the images throughout it were super cool.
