About this listen

"The heavens declare the glory of God" (Ps 19:1). Can we still sing the words of the Psalmist in an age where scientists talk about an expanding cosmos, the Higgs boson, and the multiverse?

In Signposts to God, particle physicist Peter Bussey introduces listeners to the mysteries of modern physics and astronomy. Authored in clear, accessible prose, Bussey provides a primer on topics such as the laws of nature, quantum physics, fine-tuning, and current cosmological models. He shows that despite the remarkable achievements of science, the latest research in these fields does not lead to simple physicalism in which physical processes are able to explain everything that exists.

Bussey argues that, far from ruling out a divine creator, modern physics and astronomy present us with compelling signposts to God. The more we know about the cosmos and our presence in it, the more plausible belief in God becomes. We can be intellectually satisfied in both science and the Christian faith.

Authored by someone who has worked for years in scientific research, Signposts to God is a timely and winsome response to a cultural stalemate.

thick but very interesting

The very start of this book was relatively easy going and understandable. Enjoyed going back over physics 101 and then his simple way of explaining string theory and m theory. Also enjoyed his review of philosophical argument from the Greeks (Plato) and following on thereafter his comments on the nature of contemporary arguments about physicalism vs vitalism. it's pretty hard going, probably from halfway through onwards, and had to continually rewind to digest what he was saying. if you get through it give yourself a pat on the back. It did however spark further interests to explore regarding the debate between physicalism and vitalism. Recommend. The narrator sounded a bit overoverdone and doughy but I got over it :)
