congrats. I really like this book, as I have liked all your works.
May have to get this one in audio to "re-read" it.
Congratulations Rob! I have a soft spot for Calculating God since it was my introduction to your work. I hurt myself laughing while reading it, but you also had me thinking on the subject of science and religion in new ways.
I'm thinking that many of those amusing scenes might be really funny out loud. Were you very happy with Jonathan Davis' narration?
I think Jonathan Davis did a terrific job. He's great at bringing out the humor in the lines I wrote. I'm very pleased.
