Dr Schroeder wrote a book previously along these lines that was widely used as a text book. The Hidden Face of God is a wonderful scientific look at the theory of Occam's Razor (to oversimplify). He starts out discussing theory regardig how we all got here and what our purpose is and in the beginning it feels like he is searching science to explain all the miracles that have happened and continue to happen on a daily basis. The book moves from a scientific treatise to an absolute belief (backed up with facts) that there is indeed a God and he wants the best things for all of us. It is not a fast read. This is the kind of book to read slowly, a litle bit at a time. I have given it to several friends who sit on the fence between science and spirituality. Dr. Schroeder is a wonderful man and we got to hear him speak and I reccommend that to anyone who has the opportunity.
