The God Theory: Universes, Zero-Point Fields, and What's Behind It All (

Bernard Haisch
Physicist Haisch thinks \"Let there be light\" isn\'t just a randomly
chosen phrase for the Creation. Indeed, he believes that in the
mysteries of light rest clues to the deepest mysteries of the universe,
something he calls God, though he doesn\'t mean by that word the
personification that some believers prefer. A scientist who has worked
in astrophysics and theoretical physics, Haisch has retained his wonder
at the universe from childhood, as he describes in the affecting memoir
with which the book begins. Many scientists find no tension between
their profession and the profession of belief in divinity, but Haisch
goes one step further by attempting to find a scientific explanation for
the phenomenon generally called God. Light, that familiar but utterly
mysterious force, is the key to such an understanding. Readable and
engaging, Haisch will be embraced by those concerned with finding ways
of reconciling science and religion.
