It's been just under a week since my new book, Light of the Mind, Light of the World was released. In that time, I've been privileged to have a whole array of wonderful conversations about the book and its themes. One of the most stimulating, wide-ranging, and enjoyable of those was with the UCSD physicist Brian Keating, who asked well-framed and fascinating questions about the reconciliation of science and faith.
If you haven't already, you really should subscribe to Dr. Keating's own podcast, Into the Impossible. It's consistently one of the best out there.
And if you order my book today (October 21), send me a screenshot of your order--I'll enter you to win one of five free signed bookplates.
If you've already got the book, please consider giving it a five-star review on Amazon. That makes a huge difference in spreading the word.
