Summary

Exhilarating photographs and inspiring words take us on a microscopic tour of a miraculous phenomenon -- the human body -- leading to a sense that our existence is no accident. This photographic journey into inner space utilizes microscopic imagery to document the beautiful and mysterious realm of the tiniest components of human life -- brain waves, nerve endings, cell structures, acid crystals -- revealing a symmetry, a perfection, and, ultimately, a revelation.

Illuminating quotes from the finest literary and scientific minds -- Pasteur, Tolstoy, Einstein, St. Augustine, Thoreau, Darwin, just to name a few -- support the idea that science may prove to be a path to God and that the human brain itself, through what researchers are now calling its "spirituality circuit, " is wired to lead us to that path.

With an introduction by Wall Street Journal science editor Sharon Begley, Inside the Mind of God promises to provide further insight into the abiding question: why is there something, rather than nothing?
