Many skeptics search for God through the Bible and other historical sources, but science journalist Fred Heeren starts in the world of secular science in his personal quest for what (or Who) lies beyond the last veil. With exclusive interviews with top scientists (and with frequent detours into dialogue with a fictional editor for comic relief) Heeren covers the likelihood of extraterrestrial life, evidence for an intelligent Designer and his argument for a Creator Who is independent of His creation, infinite, and personal concerning His creation. For those not as scientifically savvy he provides shortcuts through the text, which is somewhat heady but at least wittily written, and, while supporting an old-earth view of creationism (theistic evolution), he does uphold the Christian pillars of scientific history, without whom secular science would have no giant's shoulders to stand upon.
