Summary

Move over, Richard Dawkins and Christopher Hitchens - a highly regarded nuclear physicist enters the debate about the existence of God - and comes down on the side of the angels. Goswami's hypothesis is that quantum physics holds the key to all the unsolved mysteries of biology - the nature and origin of life, fossil gaps of evolution, why evolution proceeds from simple to complex, and why biological beings have feeling and consciousness.

In God Is Not Dead, Goswami moves beyond theory and shows how a God-based science puts ethics and values where it belongs: at the center of our lives and societies. He provides a scientific model that steers between scientific materialism and religious fundamentalism; a model that has implications for how we live both individually and collectively.

God Is Not Dead is a fascinating tour of quantum physics, consciousness, and the existence and experience of God.

Ground breaking, Buy if you wish to be Untangled.

I can not understand, why this book is not on best seller list, or maybe I do. It's challenging to be passionate about, existence and spend a life in a quest to clear the illusions and excuses, were fed. Nonetheless, a Scientist and explorer of human psychology and religion, understands more than my friend down the pub, who knows a bloke, that knows the meaning of life and God.....mmm. I think Amit, clearly wins my vote and although not a scientist, every single word, was exactly what I had learnt parallel on my own journey of Discovery over the past 35 years. hence why I have taken this opportunity to write my first ever review because he deserves it this book came at a time or challenge and I desperately needed this gathering of insights to inspire me to feel whole again. Thank you

Troubling...

I really wanted to like this book but the whole premise is built on such a fundamental misunderstanding of quantum mechanics that I have to genuinely question the author's knowledge.

Dr Amit Goswani is a physist so it seems incomprehensible that he wouldn't know that the double slit experiment observer effect isn't caused by consciousness but by the act of measuring - i.e. the photons of light are so small that introducing a measuring device (such as a laser or fillter) changes the trajectory of the photon and causes the differing patterns. It wouldn't matter if the observer was a human or a potato as the experiment doesn't rely on consciousness.

Similarly the quantum eraser "time travel" example put forward in the book is over simplified and doesn't mention that the wave patterns ARE different. There's a really good video on YouTube by Sabine Hossenfelder which goes into the quantum eraser experiment in more detail which is well worth a watch.

After this shaky start the book then uses other examples as proof of his theory;

- acupuncture (clinically proven to be placebo effect)
- dowsing for water
- the use of quantum healing which is thinking yourself free of cancer...

At this point I had to stop reading as it's genuinely dangerous and worrying.

Two stars as it certainly solidified some of my understanding and made me research in frustration so it wasn't completely worthless.
