Book Description

March 22, 2006
Where Angels Fear to Tread delves in depth into the universal questions about the nature of reality, the meaning of God, and the truth of human existence from the viewpoint of physics and science. What is God? Why do we perceive objects as solid, when in truth, they are not? Where does religion fit in? Is this life only a dream-like existence? What is the Dark Energy that fills the universe? Are we influenced by the values and beliefs of the masses? Can we influence our own life events, and if so, how? With a degree in physics and mathematics, author Alex Morrey provides answers to these questions in a provocative and powerfully written manner that will broaden every truth seeker's knowledge and leave readers captivated and greatly enriched.

Editorial Reviews

Review

- - A book that probes great philosophical issues and offers intriguing, if dubious, answers. Humans have long been curious about life's mysteries--why so many suffer, our purpose on earth and how a feeling or thought that has importance one day can shift as fast as the tides. One has to admire the audacity in promising answers that philosophers, scientists and theologians (as well as the average man or woman) have been unable to produce, particularly when the author doesn't state his educational credentials or affiliation. Indeed, this book might offer hope to those who fear that asking deep questions about life's meaning requires a lofty pedigree. In fact, Socrates had no sanction from the Athenian state or its academies. However, Morrey lacks Socrates' greatest characteristic-- humility. The book has not one but four alternate titles (Where Only Angels Tread, The Perceptual Conspiracy, Beyond Science and Religion and Politics), suggesting an odd bout of indecision from a man who otherwise appears to know everything. Not only does he discourse on the true nature of God, ESP, the collective unconscious, dreams and what he calls "no-mindedness," he offers advice for those who wish to "upgrade" their reality. If only readers could download this vast knowledge into their veiled minds, then they could move beyond the shackles of education and the boundaries of the senses. While the word is still out on a computer's capacity to mimic, or surpass, the human mind's learning process, it's hard to swallow a philosophy that reduces life's greatest struggles to technical jargon like brain "upgrades." Certainly there is much to applaud in seeking difficult answers and questioning norms, but claiming to have found solutions with such certainty implies either harmless ignorance or harmful desire. Is the author a mere seeker like the rest of us, or is he soliciting yet another offbeat cult to bandage the pain of living? Offers answers to all of life's big questions, but may leave readers skeptical. - -- Kirkus Discoveries May 11, 2008

More About the Author

Alex J. Morrey was born in Leicestershire England in the 1930s. After a childhood spent grappling with illness and myopia, he entered professional life as a carpenter and joiner apprentice, and subsequently as an external student of the University of London, where he earned a bachelor's degree in physics and mathematics via the Leicester College of Technology.

In the summer of 1959 Alex had what could be described as a revelation from Reality which became the basis of Where Angels Fear to Tread, an upgrading which is available to everyone.

In 1963, Alex and a colleague started a successful business producing printed circuit boards. By 1985, Alex was freed from business and able to travel. He spent time in Spain, abroad, and in the United States. In 1993, he sojourned, now and again over several years, with a close friend who was an associate pastor at a church in Athens, Georgia. The odd relationships between congregation members provided Alex with new insights into the nature of Christianity and the quality known as charisma. In 2002, these insights, coupled with his knowledge of physics, culminated into the birth of an idea that led to the writing of Where Angels Fear to Tread.

The author presently makes his home in Shanklin, on the Isle of Wight, UK.

5.0 out of 5 stars If you are a searcher, this book gives answers., September 9, 2008
This review is from: Where Angels Fear to Tread: The Nature of Reality and Meaning of God (Paperback)
If you are a searcher, this book gives answers - read it with an open mind and spirit.------------------------------------------------------------ I think this book has an important message to present to the world - one that is hard to believe as it seems to fly in the face of all that we have accepted as our view of reality from the start of our individual lives If we begin to believe in this concept of a universal belief system and all that is connected, then it literally cuts the ground from beneath our feet, so we are disorientated - our safe and secure worldview is turned upside-down and we will be forced to see science and spirituality as a partnership in order to, once more, find a solid platform to stand upon. Although Alex Morrey’s presentation of his ideas is clear and understandable, the basic concept is completely alien to our presently accepted thinking - but if you can persist reading with an open and unbiased mind you can be changed - I was, so why not many other perceptive readers. I had written a book in 2007, and published early 2008, which posed questions about the paranormal, UFO's, synchronicity etc., - questions I found reflected in Alex Morrey's book (which I had discovered only recently) These questions were, for me, conceptually answered by his explanations of "reality" - (and Reality) - and my "gut feeling" towards my situation was significantly explained by reading this unique book; so if you can maintain an open, unbiased and detached approach when reading you will greatly benefit from it - but please do not be afraid to put aside all your preconceptions....Graham Pepall

5.0 out of 5 stars awesome, August 30, 2009
This review is from: Where Angels Fear to Tread: The Nature of Reality and Meaning of God (Paperback)
He takes us out of our confotables way of accepting life the way we think and feel it is and make us understand what lies beneath the limitation of our collective, progaramed, limited minds. Alex makes us "think" twice when we are at the verge of giving a preconceived statement about any question related to God, the world, the universe. I recomend this book to those that wont accept a "no" or "yes" for answer.
Go ahead and enjoy this puzzled.
