Zero: Stories and Essays (What Number Is God)

Entertaining as well as thoughtful, the two dozen easily read stories and essays in ZERO illustrate the notion of something from nothing. Richly illustrated with "real life" photographs by Dan Sullivan, the book is the first released in a series of four inspirational volumes, each of which gently reflects the mathematical symbolism of its title. Other titles in the series include ONE, TWO, and MANY. In ZERO, the reader is invited on a metaphorical tour of zero-concepts that will spur the spiritual imagination. Consider a society with zero evil; a city with zero fences; life with zero words, zero profanity, zero choices, or zero rainbows. First there is nothing. Then there is something. Non-zero, Being, life, existence, presence, light fullness. In-between nothing and something is creation. Highly creative itself, ZERO adds an "ordinary" element to the mystical world-view.
