Big Bang: Science vs. God in a new book called "Blasphemy"

Douglas Preston discusses his latest novel "Blasphemy", a story about a scientist who works at a particle accelerator at which they are conducting research about the Big Bang. Some scientists fear that they may accidentally create a tiny black hole that could destroy the world. The novel also explores the philosophical and religious implications of studying how the universe was created. Looks like a good read so I think I'm going to check it out.

Sounds amazing, almost Michael Chriton-ish. I will be looking for it!

I could do without the faux-creepy background noise, but it's always great to hear an author talk about a book they're proud of.

It does indeed, and as a Crichton fan myself, I think this looks like a really good book.

btw, Douglas Preston often works on books with Lincoln Child, and they wrote Relic, one of my favorite books. Anybody else here read it?

^No, I'm afraid I've never read it, but then I never even heard of Douglas Preston until I found this video. Shows how much SciFi I've read in recent years.
