“With honesty, discernment, humor, grace— and an enormous amount of
reporting—Barbara Bradley Hagerty takes on one of the fiercest
controversies of the last 500 years: Can we measure faith?
Fingerprints of God reads like an elegant mystery story as Bradley
Hagerty launches a search for evidence of God within us and the
universe as a whole. People of faith and science will be grateful
for the chance to join her on her quest."—E. J. Dionne Jr., author
of Souled Out and syndicated columnist
“Barbara Bradley Hagerty has done something truly remarkable here.
She has brought her considerable reporting skills and wonderfully
wry writing to the question of who or what is God. By meticulously
documenting scientific studies and interspersing them with the
experiences of a number of individuals, including herself, she
opens doors to those answers. Fingerprints of God is its own
scientific and spiritual journey, one well worth taking.”—Cokie
Roberts, author of Ladies of Liberty and news analyst
“Fingerprints of God is a courageous and immensely enjoyable book.
In Barbara Bradley Hagerty's investigation of the science of
spirituality, I found answers for questions I've pondered for
years. Many people will find themselves in these pages.”—Donald
Miller, author of Blue Like Jazz
“What a book! The pages crackle with fresh insights into the nexus
of faith and science. Striking just the right balance between
skepticism and open-mindedness, Bradley makes for the perfect guide
on this journey of discovery. Read this book. It'll inform and
entertain – and just might change the way you view the world.”—Eric
Weiner, author of The Geography of Bliss
“You can find God in many places, from the condemned on death row
to the deepest folds of the human brain. In this groundbreaking
book on the emerging science of faith, Barbara Bradley Hagerty
discovers the links between science and spiritual experience.
Fingerprints of God will provoke you, intrigue you, and inspire
you.”—Sister Helen Prejean, author of Dead Man Walking
