In I the Contraption, Searching for Heaven, a thinker follows his alter ego, Pinocchio, in an exploration of humanity's deepest questions: Why are we here? Where are we going? Pinocchio's journey takes him from the depths of human suffering and cruelty to the heights of well-being, describing a message of hope for the future. The world is a lucid dream-a magical simulation-and we have almost grasped the ability to manipulate the interlocking blocks of its substance. Soon we will be able to create our own heaven, a world shaped not by blind, unreliable nature, but rather by knowledge and understanding of the forces in play. This fascinating and refreshingly positive book builds a bond between science and faith that points to hope in our often chaotic and absurd world. The answers the author proposes are deeply thought-provoking and could even be life changing.
