Rating: Summary: Great book for people in a secular and thinking age! Review: Answers the question about the meaning to life, and what is fundamental to life!
Rating: Summary: A must read for those in the college/university world. Review: Even those who aren't or never were in the academic world, I still highly recommend this book. The accounts, written by Harvard students and professors, will greatly encourage those who have struggled with their faith on the intellectual level (as opposed to the social and/or physical level for which countless books have been written, i.e., suffering). The accounts are extremely well-written and often profound (after all, these are Harvard students and professors). I can't express how much this book has meant to me on my intellectual spiritual pilgrimage/journey.

Rating: Summary: A great book to help intellectual Atheists and non-believers Review: For those of you who know an Atheist or non-believer who is searching for some meaning in their life, this book is for them. This collection of essays is carefully constructed and comes from an intellectual point of view. The contributing authors are made up of; scientists, Pulitzer prize winning authors, physicians, professors, politicians and scholars. Many of these people are well known within the secular community and their names along with the respect that they command will certainly grab the attention of any thinking person. The essays always come back to one central theme, there is a God and He can be known through Christ our Lord. "Finding God at Harvard" can help any intellectual find the truth about God wherever they are in life!
Rating: Summary: then they must be morons... Review: Having gone to Harvard and Harvard Law School, I can easily attest to the fact that not all students and faculty are, as the author notes, "really smart people". If you actually have a brain that can actually THINK and you don't need to some ideology telling you what to believe and how to act, then you'd soon realize that Christianty is simply an ancient means of explaining how the world works. If you read this book and are a Christian, please don't let the Harvard factor make you feel more justified in your beliefs.
Rating: Summary: A Great Inspirational And Intellectual Read Review: I am about finished with this book, and it has been such a great read. Some of the stories are so unique, personal and fascinating. She has really collected a diverse group of authors to contribute. Some chapters are biographical, some are more philosophical, and some are both. I found myself at times so intensly interested in what these authors were saying. I think my favorite chapter was "Christ And Karma; A Hindu's Quest for the Holy". It is a riveting and just plain fascinating account of a Hindu boy's journey to Christianity via the 4 gospels. The twists and turns, and the family dynamics of his home made for such pleasurable and spiritual reading. I would recommend the book to anyone who is looking for some good insirational and yet intellectual reading.

Rating: Summary: God loves people at Harvard, too. Review: I got this book as a gift from my classmate at Harvard. As a Christian, I was encouraged and pround that besides all the fame, etc. Harvard has, she has something else, God's love and God's children. The stories/testimonies are interesting and encouraging. The author's introduction in front of each story is helpful, too.
Rating: Summary: I was moved Review: I just finished reading this book, which extend my knowledge and understanding. I feel so close to the authors in my heart.It comes from their personal life,it is true and moving. I hope more and more christian, especially young christian, read this book, it is worthful.
Rating: Summary: Ron Hubbard Misquote Review: I wanted the author to know that his crack regarding Scientology founder Hubbard was incorrect. It was George Orwell of 1984 fame who said he (George) could make a lot of money inventing a religion. It was not Hubbard in fact who started Scientology at all. Unfortunate that the author did not do his research to amount to much.
