Title: You should not believe what you read in this book!
Review: Tipler's book is seriously misleading. It claims to present conclusions based onmodern science; in fact it is fantasy. He himself does not believe inthe veracity of his own theory (which he admits on page 305), so thereis no reason that you should. It abounds in absurdities (for example,Tipler believes that automobiles are alive) and the wildest speculation,claimed to be scientific results. He claims that science implies yourresurrection is inevitable as a simulation in a computer beyond theedge of space and time (that's resurrection??) - and that then your (his?)wildest dreams will be satisfiable, for example men will be able tohave sex for ever with the most beautiful woman conceivable.This is based on physics?? Bunkum!! The reason I give it a 2 rather than 1is because it does contain some intriguing speculations related tomodern physics. However Tipler is unable to distinguish sciencefrom fiction
