 | Conversations with God : An Uncommon Dialogue (Book 1) by Neale Donald Walsch

 | The Final Theory: Rethinking Our Scientific Legacy by Mark McCutcheon
Buy new: $26.95 / Used from: $9.99 I am not sure I buy into this theory 100%. It definitely is a complicated read (especially for non scientists), but McCutcheon tries to make it simple. New theory aside, it really pokes clear holes in existing theories of physics.
