The universe has many secrets. It may hide additional dimensions of space other than the familier three we recognize. There might even be another universe adjacent to ours, invisible and unattainable . . . for now. Warped Passages is a brilliantly readable and altogether exhilarating journey that tracks the arc of discovery from early twentieth-century physics to the razor's edge of modern scientific theory. One of the world's leading theoretical physicists, Lisa Randall provides astonishing scientific possibilities that, until recently, were restricted to the realm of science fiction. Unraveling the twisted threads of the most current debates on relativity, quantum mechanics, and gravity, she explores some of the most fundamental questions posed by Nature—taking us into the warped, hidden dimensions underpinning the universe we live in, demystifying the science of the myriad worlds that may exist just beyond our own.

Until Karen Wright showed up in their secluded valley, the canyon people thought they were trapped. They had almost given up hope of ever seeing their families again because the only known passages out of the canyon were guarded by giant ape-like creatures. But Karen had found her way into the canyon through a hidden passage, a passage not guarded by the intimidating beasts. God had richly provided for the canyon people. No doubt he had something to do with the Benson family's confinement in the canyon, for they were his children; and they had quietly planted seeds of faith among the others. When Karen arrived, she watered the seeds, for she too was a child of God; and faith began to germinate. Read Esther Mesterton's incredibly imaginative story "Hidden Passage" to find out the answer and more. "Hidden Passage" is a story of love and faith, of humanity's need for salvation, and God's marvelous plan of redemption.
