A faith-friendly study of infinity, informed by the cosmological visions of Moses, Abraham, Enoch, and the Brother of Jared. The Greek atomists developed the redundancy model of infinity--qualitatively similar particles and worlds that repeat themselves ad infinitum. LDS scripture indicates, however, that the primordial intrigue of infinity is difference, not redundancy, and it is the infinite particularity of God's atoning love that astonishes the prophets. God's eye lights upon each particle, person, and world as an entity worthy to be admired and loved on its own merits. A pleasing difference informs His creation at every level.
There were some great ideas in this book that I think I understood (and probably many, many more that were likely included that I didn't get), especially the analogies and possibilities with light, but I really would have liked more connections to LDS concepts/beliefs, or better or more thoroughly explained (e.g., the atonement and God's love referenced at the end of the book) at least.
