God, Cosmos and Man builds a powerful scientific interpretation of existence centered on the meticulous, integrated development of several main concepts: 1. Matter here and everywhere spontaneously self-organizes; 2. All order we see in the universe has resulted from matter's self-organization; 3. Life is the highest state of spontaneously self-organized matter, and almost certainly exists widely in the cosmos; 4. Mind is the highest state of life, seemingly capable of exerting progressively increasing control over the universe as intelligence further evolves; 5. Science seems to be telling us that god may be different than at least the Western religions would have us believe. Humans basically had a blind-faith, religious view of existence when modern science arose about 400 years ago. But science has progressively superceded religion relative to many critical issues, and remaining topics seem likely to fall to science's relentless onslaught as well. This book carefully crafts a powerful argument based on diverse biological and physical disciplines to show how a remarkably consistent world view emerges from today's science. Such a new perspective carries powerful attributes that may be more satisfying for many, and as any world view should do and agrees with what we actually see. This book provides a fresh, penetrating, scientific analysis of existence, and reveals veiled but powerful interrelations between matter, conscious mind, and cosmic makeup that suggest imaginative new views of god.
