Tom is a typically well trained and experienced physician who has become, atypically, fascinated by the scientific and medical observations that confirm the reality of a spiritual dimension to our human experience. As a medical colleague, I have been surrounded by the scientists who dispute both the existence and value of spirituality as it concerns medical treatment. Like Tom, however, this background never really rang true with my experience as a man and as a physician.
I have not needed the new "science" to be a theist, but work like Tom's helps begin to put certain disparate spiritual experiences together in a framework my mind can grasp. Like the concept of infinite space, there are realms and concepts that exceed my ability to conceptualize; however, this does not deny that they are real.
Tom has a great way of presenting a balanced assessment of the material he studies and a friendly way of conveying it. Atheists and fundamentalists alike should have no problem at least considering the ideas Tom presents in his works. I highly recommend them for pleasure and for serious thought. Also consider his "God At The Speed of Light".
