DOUBLEDAY RELIGION, EVENTS, INTERVIEWS

Michael Novak “On Faith”

Michael Novak, author of upcoming book, “No One Sees God” (on sale August 5th) shares his perspective on Washington Post’s On Faith column.

    So far, Michael has received winning praise, including these kudos:

    “Over the years, Michael Novak has explored with great insight the relationship between religion, society, and the individual. Here he engages with the recent intellectual challenges to religion and provides the perspective of a profound believer who knows what it is like to wrestle with doubt.”
    — Walter Isaacson, CEO of the Aspen Institute and author of Einstein: His Life and Universe

    “The word ‘dialogical’ might have been invented to describe Michael Novak. With great patience and lucidity he engages believers, unbelievers, and those who don’t know what they believe in a conversation about the things that matter most.”
    — Fr. Richard Neuhaus, Editor-in-chief of First Things

    “Michael Novak’s new book counts as both significant and moving. He deploys logic and love, emotion and erudition, to address the most enduring questions of our existence.”
    —Michael Medved Nationally Syndicated Talk Radio Host, Author of Right Turns

    To learn more about No One Sees God, check out Michael’s interview with First Things, or if you are in Washington D.C. on September 9th, come to his lecture at the American Enterprise Institute at 5:30 p.m.
