Synopsis
Clifford A. Pickover bridges the gulf between logic, spirit, science, and religion in this text. In exploring the concept of omniscience, he leaves us with the paradox of proof that God cannot be omniscient and yet must be. Ideas, thought exercises and experiments, and practical analogies are used to explore what types of relationships we ordinary humans might have with an omniscient God. Pickover asserts that a supernatural God is not beyond the domain of science, and this notion alters how we might think about God and the universe. Through an inventive blend of science, history, philosophy, science fiction and mind-stretching brainteasers, Pickover unfolds the paradoxes of God, and he provides glimpses into the infinite, allowing the reader to think big and to have daring, limitless dreams.
