review:
'Big Bang Big God: A Universe Designed for Life?' by Rodney Holder looks at the scientific origins of the universe and makes a compelling argument that there is a specific being behind it all.

Starting with the development and theories around the Big Bang and the scientists that developed it and furthered it, this book takes those ideas and theories and posits that there is an orderliness to what was presumed chaos. This is further discussed when the book delves into the theories of the multiverse. The author gives many angles on the multiverse and concludes that there can only be one universe and one intelligence behind it all.

I'm doing a terrible job of recapping this book, but I thoroughly enjoyed it. It's not light reading as it delves into cosmology and theology, but I feel like it makes a compelling argument and does so much better than I apparently can. The book finishes with an appendix with Bayes' Theorem which is about the probability of an event, based on prior knowledge of that event.

I received a review copy of this ebook from Lion Books and NetGalley in exchange for an honest review. Thank you for allowing me to review this ebook.
