"You told a young
boy in the Peruvian Andes that God
is a physicist.
I never forgot."
Jeff George (pictured above) included this
dedication
to friend Mark Roberts in his award-winning
doctoral thesis. The son of missionaries,
George lived in Bolivia and Peru as a child.
It was in Peru that his passion for physics
began to take hold. Roberts, a fellow missionary,
not only encouraged the missionary kid's
interest in science, but helped him to see
that "the importance of science is
what it shows us about God."
