Another thread by me within minutes of posting another...

I have 'Meeting the Universe Halfway', 'Quantum Reality: Theory and Philosophy', and 'Sneaking a Look at God's Cards: Unravelling the Mysteries of Quantum Mechanics'.

Wanting to add more books to my collection - anyone got suggestions for other books that are similar to the ones mentioned above?


Cheers,
Stevie
