Ask the Rabbi: Questions and Answers in Judaism Book

The central task of the book is contemplating modern physics and whether it can provide modern metaphors for ways of thinking about God, particularly in the context of Judaism. Although I imagine that contemplating God as the Big Bang or a "fractal ... shaped impersonal creative structure of the physical universe" is not going to be everyone's cup of tea, for me, these metaphors actually do provide a compelling and spiritually fulfilling way to think about the nature of God and the universe.

I would recommend this book for spiritual seekers, not necessarily just Jewish ones (although that's the particular religious context here, given that the author is a Rabbi) who have a sense that science & religion need not be a zero sum game and want a conceptual framework for reconciling the two, and for those (again, particularly, but not necessarily only, Jews) for whom a notion of a personal God is not comfortable and who are looking for other ways to conceptualize God. If you're one of these folks, maybe you'll agree or maybe not, but it'll give you something to chew on for a bit.
