As his BBC 'Thought for the Day' broadcasts illustrate, Russell Stannard is a master at explaining big ideas in simple prose. He is also one of the world's great communicators at the boundaries of science and faith. So-no surprise-The Divine Imprint is a fascinating tour of recent explorations of human nature, theology, and the possibility that God's mind may be revealed in the depths of our own minds. * David G. Myers, Professor of Psychology, Hope College, Michigan *
Russell Stannard is one of the very best scientific educators we have. He has a wonderful gift for imaginative exploration. * The Tablet *
