Suggesting that we might have been too narrow in limiting our suspects to God and the Big Bang, he tracks down, among others, an eccentric Oxford philosopher, a Nobel Laureate physicist, a French Buddhist monk and novelist John Updike, to pursue this cosmic puzzle from every angle.
As he pieces together a solution – while offering insights into time, consciousness and eternity – he sheds fascinating new light on the meaning of existence.
