A look at the readers' reviews on web pages of on-line booksellers reveals that opinions of Mr. Wilber's scholarship, clarity and insight regarding science and religion fall into two strongly divided camps: those who think it's shallow rubbish and those who think it's brilliant (and yes, my review is one of the most strident among the former). As close as I can tell from most reader/reviewers, the divergence seems to be along the lines of science backgrounds on one side and non-science backgrounds on the other. That doesn't seem much different from what we already have.
