“For as long as human beings have inhabited the planet Earth, we have been searching for answers to the same three big questions: (1) where did we come from? (2) Is there life after death? (3) What is the meaning of life? Given the length of time humans have sought answers to these questions, one might think we would have arrived at some sort of consensus by now, but we haven’t.”

Steven Knapp really breaks down these “3 Big Questions” into understandable text and commentary. Each section is summarized, and the author is careful to assert that his word is not necessarily the last word – or the only word – as to the answers on which he expounds.

He covers the Big Bang Theory, evolution, the afterlife, different religions, and much, much more. While not everyone may agree with Mr. Knapp, every reader will certainly find something to ponder, something to discuss. “Answers” touches on these questions in a thoughtful, introspective manner; it’s a unique book that informs the reader, as well as allowing him to create his own conclusions.
