Description
The book’s purpose is to provide scientifically based and humanistically oriented answers to fundamental questions that people often turn to religion to have answered.
Here is the brief description appearing on the cover:
What is morality? Do we have free will? Are there any limits to what the human mind can understand? How is it that humans speak? Why do we die? What is it that transcendental meditation transcends?
Reverse Engineering God proposes rational and science-based answers to these and many other related and similar questions. It does so in a series of short “stories.” Each story presents one question, describes the scientific data available for its solution, shows how these data, when combined with logical inferences, can be used to answer the question, and points to its relation with other questions.

About the Author
The author's Amazon page provides this description:
Michael Rothschild is a robot conceived by no designer. His creators were robots of the same model, who executed a built-in routine they did not completely understand to create him. He is a member of a group of nearly 8 billion robots of the same brand. These robots are as close as possible to being human; indeed they are human. Although they are part of the same model, no two robots are identical, and each one has been tuned to prefer certain activities over others. Michael’s personal preference is to try to make sense of the world, which is what he’s been doing for most of his life.
