Two bestselling authors first met in a televised Caltech
debate on “the future of God,” one an articulate advocate
for spirituality, the other a prominent physicist.
This remarkable book is the product of that serendipitous
encounter and the contentious—but respectful—clash of
worldviews that grew along with their friendship.
In War of the Worldviews these two great
thinkers battle over the cosmos, evolution and life, the
human brain, and God, probing the fundamental questions that
define the human experience.
How did the universe
emerge? What is the nature of time? What
is life? Did Darwin go wrong? What makes us
human? What is the connection between mind and
brain? Is God an illusion?
This
extraordinary book will fascinate millions of readers of
science and spirituality alike, as well as anyone who has
ever asked themselves, What does it mean that I am alive?
