Reviews

*This is the book that ties it all together - the problems that religion creates in solving our looming problems, and the unholy environmental mess we're in. I'd say that someday we're going to have to listen to this man, but the truth is, that day is NOW." -Bill Maher *Beyond Cosmic Dice comes not a moment too soon as we struggle with increasingly dire social crises and an ailing planet. The last thing we need is for religious dogma to get in the way of finding rational solutions to our problems! Jeff's book explains why." -Max and Jason, hosts/producers of Current TV, Al Gore's Emmy winning TV network Anonymous: Now is the time for everyone to read this book. You may not agree with all of it, but discussion about these issues of religion, science, and morality goes beyond being simply relevant and is truly necessary given our current world politics. Beyond Cosmic Dice is an easy read, but densely packed with important ideas. Somehow the authors have managed to pull off making the usually dry subjects of ethics, morality and religion humorous without in any diminishing the serious nature of the discussion. This is actually a page turner! I love the chapter titles, and that irreverence is reflected in the text of the book as well, but without ever being disrespectful toward the long-held beliefs that are being so effectively challenged. If you have ever questioned religion's answers to life's mysteries, then this book is a must read. I do not agree with everything the authors say, but find myself in agreement with their biggest ideas about morality and religion. I loved this book and found it a deeply satisfying read. Anonymous: As someone who believes fully in the divine and in the magical unfolding of the mystery of the Universe, I was curious to see what two scientists would have to say about the dismantling of religion in America and even though I think the author's approach is remarkably linear - the 'call' for 'morality' as a Principled based way of life is extraordinary and for this I give KUDOS to the authors voice in the scientific community for calling on such an action to occur ~ Anonymous:
