I have been thinking of submitting a manuscript for publication. It is all about science, rather physics. However my previous attempts weren't successful because of some references in it to highly sensitive subjects, including religion.How to approach a popular publisher of science-related work?
I have worked in the fields of print communication and media during more than 15 years and I can say that the problem you experienced is understandable.
Science is science, and physics is hard and highly rationalistic science. So, it doesn't mix well with religion! About what you call "highly sensitive subjects" I don't know what you mean but such mention does little to add credit to your work after you were talking about religion.
So, better looking for editing houses having a department specialized in esoterism, psychic things and other UFO stories and theories, which may be interested in your work.
Nobel prize and physicist Werner Heisenberg wrote a book mixing philosophy and its down-to-earth principe of uncertainty, but this book doesn't belongs to the science category.
Phisicist Jean Charron got away from quantum mechanics at some point when he suggested that certain particle he named "eon" has a "memory" of past events. Although Jean Charron's books are filled with complex equation and formulas and so it adresses to a limited public familiar with the field of quantum mechanics, this example shows where is the limit beyond which your are no longer talking about science and rationality.
