520    For a long time, people have argued that the rise of 
       science has caused the decline of religion. Other Worlds 
       presents a different perspective, showing that modern 
       Europeans and Americans often used scientific ideas in 
       imaginative ways to develop new, enchanted views of nature,
       its fantastic borderlands, and the hidden spaces that 
       might lie beyond it. This book examines the history and 
       imaginative power of one scientific idea in particular, an
       idea that has become crucial in many settings, from modern
       physics to fantasy literature and science-fiction film--
       namely, the idea that the universe has higher, invisible 
       dimensions. Drawing on archives from across the U.S. and 
       the U.K., the author analyzes how scientists, writers, 
       artists, screenwriters, televangelists, and others have 
       used this idea to make supernatural phenomena such as 
       ghosts and miracles seem more reasonable and make 
       religious or spiritual beliefs possible again for 
       themselves and others.--|cProvided by publisher.
