The Dresden Files > DF Spoilers
Nemesis, Collaboration, and Sarissa...
Rasins:
When you consider that Magic (at least according to Harry) are the very powers of creation, it makes sense that those powers can be used to modify things, or to put it another way, to reshape reality.

The impression I get from the DF is that 'magic' is actually more than one thing, albeit the various things are related. More than one power source, more than one set of rules, more than one set of limits. There may be common underlying foundations, but I think Harry's understanding of magic, esp. in the early books, was oversimplified.

I agree, it was (and probably still is) oversimplified.
However, it still stands to reason that it can reshape reality. I kind of think that's why it's there in the first place.

Both those statements could be applied equally to "Magic" as to "Science."

Your point being? *raises eyebrows*
Sufficiently advanced science ... and all that.
