In \u003ci\u003eSublime Physick\u003c\/i\u003e, Madden seeks what is common and ennobling among seemingly disparate, even divisive, subjects, ruminating on midlife, time, family, forgiveness, loss, originality, a Canadian rock band, and much more, discerning the ways in which the natural world (\u003ci\u003efisica\u003c\/i\u003e) transcends and joins the realm of ideas (\u003ci\u003esublime\u003c\/i\u003e) through the application of a meditative mind. \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e In twelve essays that straddle the classical and the contemporary, Madden transmutes the ruder world into a finer one, articulating with subtle humor and playfulness how science and experience abut and intersect with spirituality and everyday life.\u003ch3\u003eAuthor Biography\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003ePatrick Madden\u003c\/b\u003e is a professor at Brigham Young University.
