The plot is highly dramatic and keeps one reading to the very end, the characters are rich and real, and the writing itself full of intuition and insight. The scientific-spiritual theory is imparted with persuasive poetic clarity. Many people are going to love this book which is a strange amalgam of religion, science and science fiction. Above all it is full of hope and vigour. JANE ROSENTHAL THE MAIL & GUARDIAN November 10th, 2006 BUY THIS BOOK : orders@centralbooks.com www.centralbooks.co.uk   Phone:  44 - 20889864854
