In this easy-to-understand, non-technical analysis, physicist Ingermanson provides an authoritative answer to the Bible code debate. Discover what his meticulous research reveals and how his findings may impact your faith. 224 pages, softcover from Waterbrook.

Did God imprint his "signature" on the book of Genesis through a secret code? A computational physicist leads an investigation of the evidence at hand and points to a website where readers can download software to crack the Bible code on their own computers.

    Tell us a little about yourself.  I'm a Christian, a physicist, and a writer. I write about the wild events that go on at the intersection of Science Avenue and Religion Boulevard.

    What was your motivation behind this project?  When I looked at all the books that had been written on the Bible code, I saw that none of the authors were scientists. I thought it would be interesting to study the subject for myself and write a book with my conclusions.

    What do you hope folks will gain from this project?  People have made extraordinary claims about the Bible code. But extraordinary claims require extraordinary proof, and the Bible coders have not provided that proof. I hope to provide my readers with a clear understanding of how a scientist looks at this kind of thing from a Christian worldview. In the process, I want my readers to have fun. That's why I tell all those stories about "Amy in the alphabet," the day I almost got killed, and the infamous "nude model Denice."

    Who are your influences, sources of inspiration or favorite authors / artists?  The Bible is a book that is deep, rich, and profound. I believe the real secrets of the Bible are "hidden in plain sight" in the plain text of the Bible. Most of my favorite authors are novelists, amonng them J.R.R. Tolkien, C.S. Lewis, Chaim Potok, Michael Crichton, Tom Clancy, John Grisham, and many others.

    Anything else you'd like readers / listeners to know:  I read Hebrew and write software. While writing my book, I wrote some software to test for the existence of the Bible code. You can download that software for free from my web site at www.rsingermanson.com. I've also got a number of articles on the Bible code and other fun stuff. Enjoy!
