Description: By its uncanny merger of science and religion, this book proposes a solution to the biggest challenge facing science: how matter becomes conscious. A close look at the brain reveals an extremely unexpected connection between consciousness and the laws of physics and why, accordingly, reality must be fundamentally personal and God-centered. The book explains why the organization of matter is necessarily linked to an image and why accordingly we have been created in the image of God. You will discover that an image is far more than meets the eye, that its perception represents a match between one's actual body mass and that as "anticipated" in the incipient absence of an expected state. You will understand why the entire brain functions around an expectancy mismatch to which weightless infinity is implicit. You will see how an expectancy mismatch, completely dependent upon the encoding of infinity in the brain, drives the motor system to create whatever is expected. In general, you will see that the perception of an image, finite by definition, is the actual act of restraining the ravaging effects of the Second Law. Extrapolating from the logic of neural design, you will understand why science requires that our universe has been expectantly spoken into being by a God who exists outside of space and time - and why space-time is itself inseparable from an image. You will appreciate why the brain is the end-result of superstring theory as a function of infinity. Finally, you will understand why the existence of mind must precede matter and why going from the simple to the complex by evolution is both illogical and impossible - not because of religious whim but because of the way order and thermoregulation are bound to an image deep within the brain. Briefly stated, you will discover that by weaving together the concepts of "infinity," "mass" and "anticipation," this book puts God back where He belongs - at the center of science.
