In the 'Spirit of Life', Mike Dillon explains how some aspects of "new" science encouraged him to look at spirituality from a scientific perspective, in addition to faith, enabling his spiritual beliefs to be developed in a progressive and practical way. When discussing spirituality, Mike addresses a number of profound questions such as: What or where is God? What happens when we die? Why does a loving God allow natural disasters, war, pestilence and other human tragedies? Mike applies simple logic to a variety of spiritual questions, so by the end of the book the reader, without perhaps realising it, is in a different place, addressing issues maybe never before considered.
