Beyond the God Particle
Our logic is born, lives, and dies with us. God does not.
Why is there something rather than nothing?
In 2012, at CERN in Geneva, science found the "God particle", the Higgs boson. But the morning after the announcement, the sky was the same as ever. The stars were still there. The question was still there.
Because science, however powerful, explains how the universe works, not why it exists.
Beyond the God Particle is a journey to the edges of that mystery. Through twenty chapters traversing G del's incompleteness theorem and quantum entanglement, Meister Eckhart's mysticism and the theology of resurrection, Cantor's mathematics of infinity and Cusanus's coincidence of opposites, Andrea Bruni shows how the boundaries of human knowledge are not walls, but doors.
For readers of Carlo Rovelli, Roger Penrose, and Stephen Hawking who have felt that even the most brilliant scientific popularization leaves something essential unsaid. For readers of C.S. Lewis, Viktor Frankl, and Thomas Merton who want their faith engaged by contemporary physics rather than shielded from it.
Not a book that asks you to believe. A book that asks you not to stop searching.
"Beyond the God particle, there is God."
Twenty chapters. Five parts. One question that will not close.
