What the physicists and the philosophers, the economists and the ecologists, the anthropologists and the animal behaviouralists, the religious historians, the neuroscientists and the biochemists are telling us by and large falls into place to provide a consistent story of the development of the universe and of humanity. Of course the story is not yet complete. There is much more yet to discover and understand, but the outlines are there in ample detail. \u003cbr\u003eThe dialogues provide background on the historical development of carefully selected scientific topics which are important to our understanding of ourselves and our surroundings. Amongst the questions discussed are: \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cli\u003e What do we know about our universe and how did we find out?\u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli\u003eHow do we know how old it is, and, for that matter, how far away individual stars and galaxies are? \u003c\/li\u003e\u003cli\u003eHow might life have originated?\u003c\/li\u003e\u003cli\u003e How does life replicate and change over time?\u003c\/li\u003e\u003cli\u003e How did religion evolve and why? \u003c\/li\u003e\u003cli\u003eTo what extent do our brains resemble computers? \u003c\/li\u003e\u003cli\u003eHow do we remember faces, facts and figures, and how do we think laterally?\u003c\/li\u003e\u003cli\u003e Do we have a free will?\u003c\/li\u003e\u003cli\u003e What is happiness and how can we maximize it?\u003c\/li\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003e \"[A] rich, intelligent . . important book . . . clearly written.\"\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003e J.
