I must say I am a little frightened by the title of this book The God Part of the Brain by Matthew Alper that a bright friend of mine lent me. He lent it to me two months ago - and yet it just sits there, continually staring at me.
Interestingly, I am currently engrossed in yet another book that also fully explores the God Part of the Brain - or at least the God part of life in the universe (which by default includes the brain). It is called Contact - by Carl Sagan - a book which by the way is 1000 times more significant than the movie made from it.
Nevertheless, the current flap about Nostradamus, err, I mean Da Vinci Code, got me thinking about the best story about a Code ever. And that story is contained at the end of Contact, the book (not the movie). It changed the way I look at life.
Read it, and you will never look at a circle the same again in your entire life.
