Does the Universe Have a Soul? - Paperback

by Carly Shooster (Illustrator), Michael Gold (Author)

What is the role of mind or consciousness in the universe?
Are mind and matter, body and soul, two separate substances as taught by Plato and the great religions of the West? If so, how do these two substances interact?
Does the universe consist of matter in motion, as taught by most contemporary scientists and philosophers? If so, how does mind emerge?
Or is mind the ultimate reality, as taught by the great religions of the East, many mystics, and as suggested by quantum theory? If so, what is matter?
Join us on this intellectual journey from the Bible and the ancient Greeks, through modern philosophy, to contemporary science and the insights of kabbalah or Jewish mysticism.
