This history of atomism, from Democritus to the recent discovery of the Higgs boson, chronicles one of the most successful scientific hypotheses ever devised, making the case that in the final analysi
Stenger (philosophy, U. of Colorado and emeritus physics and astronomy, U. of Hawaii) describes how secularists have jumped on the anti-Islam hysteria generated after September 11 to take the offensiv
In God: The Failed Hypothesis (2007), Stenger (philosophy, U. of Colorado and emeritus physics and astronomy, U. of Hawaii) argued against the existence specifically of the Abrahamic deity, and only a
In this fascinating and accessible book, physicist Victor J. Stenger guides the lay reader through the key developments of quantum mechanics and the debate over its apparent paradoxes. In the process
Stenger (physics, U. of Hawaii) critically examines theories of a transcendent reality in terms of what is currently known about matter at its most fundamental level. He offers a convincing rebuttal t
No post-modern pussy-footing for Stenger (emeritus, physics and astronomy, U. of Hawaii and adjunct, philosophy, U. of Colorado) as he subjects the notion of god and various derivative concepts to the
Stenger (emeritus, physics and astronomy, U. of Hawaii-Manoa and philosophy, U. Colorado-Boulder) sets out the arguments of what he characterizes as tremendous advances in physics, astronomy, and cosm
Offering a critical analysis of theories binding science to theology, Stenger argues that nothing in modern physics, biology, or cosmology requires supernatural explanation, and that those who claim e
If you complained to Stenger (physics and astronomy, U. of Hawaii) that you had no time, he would shrug and say nothing does. He explains to educated lay readers that time is reversible and that the u
Much of the world seems chaotic and unpredictable, but the regular movement of celestial bodies and certain demonstrable physical phenomena seem to indicate the existence of a world that is basically
