Inhaltsangabe

What if one of humanity’s oldest ideas has an unexpected resemblance to one of physics’ most fundamental concepts?

God has been described as eternal, invisible, present everywhere and fundamental to existence. Energy is found throughout the physical universe, cannot be treated as an ordinary material object, transforms from one form to another and is governed by some of nature’s deepest laws. The parallels are intriguing—but do they reveal anything more than similarities in language?

Is God Energy? explores the boundary between physics, philosophy and faith without attempting to prove or disprove God. From mass–energy equivalence and quantum fields to the Big Bang, the quantum vacuum, consciousness, pantheism, panentheism and the mystery of why anything exists at all, the book separates established science from philosophical interpretation and popular misconception.

Can energy really be eternal? Is empty space truly empty? Could consciousness be fundamental? Does the universe require an explanation beyond itself? And when theology and physics appear to describe something remarkably similar, are they actually talking about the same reality?

Balanced, accessible and intellectually rigorous, Is God Energy? investigates one provocative question while allowing science, philosophy and religion to remain distinct where the evidence demands it.
