I quite enjoyed the description of the forming of the universe and the creation of the earth and life on earth. The way Swimme and Tucker used the word 'creativity' raised a certain number of questions which they didn't even attempt to answer. Creativity seems to imply a certain amount of intent. Intent implies consciousness. Are they implying there is a consciousness behind the universe? I did like the way the showed how we are all connected to the 'big bang' and to everything other thing, show more living and non-living in the universe and beyond. I was less than enthralled by the way they wrote about humans. show less
