Go for the big one: the existence of God. Sir John Houghton is a physicist who believes that the deity is alive and well, and looking for you, as he explains amid a forest of wild typography in The Search for God: Can Science Help? (Lion, Oxford, 拢6.99, ISBN 0 7459 3305 X). Boxes, italics, irritating lines round page numbers 鈥� the designer鈥檚 palette has been left on the page. Perhaps it鈥檚 the affection that physical scientists have for galaxy-spanning questions that leaves them fearless in the face of God. Notably few biologists have joined the search. His publishers describe the book鈥檚 鈥渟ophistication level鈥� as intelligent/popular, so perhaps it鈥檚 for you.
