From Simon & Schuster, Superforce is Paul Davies' latest work that searches for a grand unified theory of nature. Superforce explains how recent discoveries in physics and the new cosmology have transformed concepts of the physical world by linking space, time, matter, force, creation, order, and mind into the ultimate scientific theory.

A comprehensive and readable survey of the central issues of Christianity that will help Christians to stand firm in a changing world.

Solved are two great mysteries, science’s search to understand the grand unified theory of everything, and Christianity’s search to understand the Lord’s omnipresent nature, both of which are the exact same thing—only clothed in different terminology. Thus making the Big Bang Theory and the Theory of Evolution both Biblical principles as first recorded in the Genesis account of creation written by Moses some 3,500 years ago.

Som, an acronym for Speculations on mind, is a speculative theory of the fundamental physiological structure and operational nature of a mind. After the essential background information and basic premises of Som are given, the theory is progressively developed to attempt to account for the manifestation of subjective feelings, awareness, consciousness, sensory and mental qualia, personness, thought and reasoning processes, memory, imagination, dreams, moods, emotions, and numerous other diverse phenomena within our own personal reality. Som has been additionally provided with a brief addendum titled, Sor, an acronym for Speculations on reality. Sor considers the question of whether or not there might be an existent, underlying, supersensible reality which is possibly causal to the subsistence of our spatiotemporal continuum, and so ourselves. If you choose to travel into and through the imaginary realms of Som and Sor, you will likely realize at the end of your journey that you have gone full circle, and so returned to exactly where you started, within yourself, but then having a new and perhaps unforeseen ability to view your personal reality in a wholly different and surprisingly practical way.

Advance Praise "What a treasure house is this book! Robots, space aliens, Einstein, black holes, time travel--these themes, and much more, from Stephen King's amazing books are opened up like toy chests. It's tremendous fun, entirely educational, and a great tribute to King."--Peter Straub "A fun, fun read."--F. Paul Wilson "The Science of Stephen King appeals to both the scientist and the longtimereader of Stephen King in me. Gresh and Weinberg use concepts from King's fiction as launching pads for in-depth explorations of concepts as diverse as ESP, pyrokinesis, time travel, artificial intelligence, quantum chemistry, alternate realities, string theory, and the possibility that we'll be visited by aliens or that we'll face a global pandemic. Much of what Stephen King writes about in his novels is closer to reality than you might think."--Bev Vincent, Ph.D., author of The Road to the Dark Tower "A superb overview of King's use of scientific concepts in his stories. And considering all the scary talk lately about pandemic flu, their chapter on The Stand is timely as hell."--Stephen Spignesi, author of The Complete Stephen King Encyclopedia "Just as Sagan and Asimov popularized science to the masses by making itentertaining and informative, so too do Gresh and Weinberg. Compulsively readable and thought-provoking."--George Beahm, author of The Stephen King Companion
