The Universe Revealed is my attempt to discuss more thoroughly the main questions that we humans should ask about our existence, our universe and our place in it. These are mostly my thoughts on science, religion and philosophy as it applies to the human condition. My first book, The Theory of Nothing, covered many subjects. This book will be more specific to the big questions about life and what it means.

I hear a gun shot....scared, he has finally done it. He has killed himself. I hear his words ringing through my ears.......his last few words. I run fast, screaming at him. Dad, NO! My hazel eyes search the room, tentatively. There, I see him on the floor, with a pool of blood around his face. His eyes, still open, searching for something, and he points at me, finally, and murmurs slowly "I love you......" I look at him in disbelief with a blank stare, and fall hard on the floor, smashing my head. It hurts as if a thousand needles stuck in to my head at one.
