From E. C. KIRBY
I was trained as a chemist, and all my working life has been spent in
hard science. I yield to no one in my enthusiasm for the discipline; for
its practical power and the conceptual joy it brings. I do not consider
there are any forbidden areas of enquiry.
And yet. . . I am concerned with the whole of reality; which includes
what I experience. And there are so many questions unanswered, some of which
‘lie too deep for words’. As an ordinary, fully committed practitioner of
science, and despite my huge and profound love for the subject, it has come
nowhere near to fully satisfying me as an inquiring entity.
