Ross did a good job compiling various sources of information relating to sacred geometry which has been found only in our solar system. He tries to explain answers to some life questions using mathematical and geometric pattern.

It sounds like the author did his best in trying to penetrate already existing believes known to man, although it is not something i am interested in, i find it pleasing that a good amount of research went into this book. Thanks for the review.

I have to agree with you about this book not being for everyone. So, even if I'm not sure whether I'll enjoy it or not, I'm gonna give it a try. Thanks for your detailed review. You did a great job!

Wow, very thorough! Thank you! I am even more interested in this book now having read your review. I am fascinated with questions regarding our existence, our place in the cosmos and how it all came to be. Thank you for pointing out how dense of a read it can be in places, as I know that it will take me a bit more time to fully grasp the information being given and therefore will prepare myself from the very start.

From a sampling, this is an interesting philosophical/geometric understanding of the universe and cosmic bodies. While not my favorite class of non-fiction or philosophical studies, it is different from the usual works and is worth a second look. Well Done.

Love this review! Wonderful work done by the reviewer. As for the book, seems like much research as been done to compile it. Meaning it is stock with wide knowledge. I will love to have it.

This sounds really interesting, but I don't care for science or math focused books, so I think I'll pass.

I not only don't read non-fiction on principle, I also have no interest in this book's subject matter. But no doubt, considering review, astronomy fans will find it enlightening.

Great review, thanks! Sounds like a real mind-expanding trip for those willing to take the plunge. I admire the author for compiling his research in this form to make it available for many to read. Our universe is an endlessly fascinating place.

Thank you for the great review! These are questions that we have been asking ourselves for a very long time. And, eventhough the author may not provide us with the absolute true answer, it is a version of the answer and an interesting one to read, especially since he's done a lot of research.

You did a fabulous job of summarizing the key points in your review of this book. You’re correct. It is quite dense. The review was absolutely necessary as I expected the topic to be math-related; not a theoretical philosophy that is math-supported. I feel that the book itself would benefit from loads of editing in order to take out some of the commentary. As it does not seem greatly edited, I don’t feel that the 4 of 4 rating is fair. Also, it seemed to me, that it would start with a supporting evidence, say nothing about it, skip to the next idea, and then ask the reader to recall the evidence from earlier when the main point was drawn. Did you feel this way? Perhaps I’m missing something.

This is well-researched non-fiction book that talks about the symmetric geometry in our solar system. I commend the author's effort on this one. I'll check out this book later. Thanks for the review
