1.When God Is Gone, Everything Is Holy: The Making of a Religious NaturalistWhen God Is Gone, Everything Is Holy: The Making of a Religious Naturalist
from Sorin Books
Price: $15.61

Customer Review:
In many ways this is a fascinating collection of essays. Having been raised Mormon, I, too, had to struggle to define myself as a scientist with respect to my faith. In the end, I, too, found myself outside of many aspects of my religion.
The early chapters have an undertone of angry wrestling... more info

2.Three Hundred and Sixty Five Starry Nights: An Introduction to Astronomy for Every Night of the YearThree Hundred and Sixty Five Starry Nights: An Introduction to Astronomy for Every Night of the Year
from Fireside
Price: $11.53

Customer Review:
This is a great book. Full of fascinating facts. This is the best Astronomy 101 text I have read. It is easy to just go to the paragraph you need, it is all very self contained and very accessible. Great illustrations! My only qualms with this book is that it says nothing of the planets. It... more info

3.Honey from Stone: A Naturalist s Search for GodHoney from Stone: A Naturalist's Search for God
from Cowley Publications
Price: $10.85

Customer Review:
Honey From Stone is one of the finest books I have ever read. It engaged me at so many levels such as the ones the title of this review suggests. Raymo is a polymath with a mystical bent. His approach to the universe is one of awe, a response which is passed along to the reader with tremendous... more info

4.Skeptics and True BelieversSkeptics and True Believers
from Walker & Company
Price: $10.17

Customer Review:
Could have been titled "True Skeptics and True Believers" as each extreme exists. Demonstrates fairly well the dependency that science and faith have upon one another, and that neither nullifies the other.

5.Written In StoneWritten In Stone
from Black Dome Press
Price: $12.71

Customer Review:
Remarkable and prolific, this couple, and especially Chet, must be driven, somehow, to share their wealth of knowledge with the rest of us. I know that Chet is a scientist, professor and teacher. Yet I never cease to wonder that along the way he and Maureen sould take the time and make the effort to... more info

6.The Soul of the Night: An Astronomical PilgrimageThe Soul of the Night: An Astronomical Pilgrimage
from Cowley Publications
Price: $10.85

Customer Review:
Reading Chet Raymo is like taking a deep, cleansing breath and exhaling slowly--one is filled with inspiration and joy. More than learning about the wonder of the night sky and beyond, you become part of it. This is my fourth Chet Raymo book, and I look forward to another.

7.The Dork of CorkThe Dork of Cork
from Grand Central Publishing
Price: $17.99

Customer Review:
I have given up trying to find words to describe this book. It is probably my favorite novel of all time, if I were pressed to choose just one. There isn't much to say except what I wrote in my title. I can find fault with one or two things in the book, but the structure, the prose, the characters... more info

For all you grandparents out there, have a section of your bookshelf devoted to astronomy books to share with your grandchildren. This is a perfect book to place on that part of your bookshelf.
You can pull it down to read short essays with your grandchildren and then walk outside during a warm... more info

from Walker & Company
Price: $11.01

Customer Review:
For 37 years now Mr Reymo is walking the same one-mile path between his house in North Easton, near Boston, and his workplace, the Stonehill College, back and forth, nearly everyday. And he uses precisely this short path as starting point to his exploration of the miracles of Nature.
First he... more info
