Between Eternities

It is through man's involvement that the universe becomes conscious of itself. The universe created life and in an astounding feat of circularity it is life principally the human being that then brought the universe into existence and a creator into possibility. Alternatively is the universe only an illusion an aberration of nothingness? Science philosophy religion and mysticism all offer different propositions. Ashvin Desai interweaves the different streams of reasoning to produce a meticulously researched closely argued and thought-provoking work tracing the history of the universe. About the Author The late Ashvin Desai published his debut novelBetween Eternities: Ideas on Life and Cosmos in 2008.
