My ambition for "First Contact Chaos" began simply enough: two alien science vessels arrive, setting the stage for the eventual "lights out" for our entire galaxy. It took four books to achieve that galactic blackout, but "The War of the Worlds" and "Forbidden Planet" were my guiding lights. Both of those stories uniquely tap into the fear of the unknown and wisely avoid tropes like superheroes, genius scientists, creating weapons, time machines, or divine intervention. That approach helped me keep all four books grounded in hard science. While I didn't plunge the galaxy into darkness in ...

Over the past two centuries scientific advances have made it clear that the universe is a story still unfolding. In this thought-provoking book, John F. Haught considers the deeper implications of this discovery. He contends that many others who have written books on life and the universe - including Stephen Hawking, Stephen Jay Gould, and Richard Dawkins - have overlooked a crucial aspect of cosmic history: the drama of life's awakening to interiority and religious awareness.
