Join author Jonathan Black as he discusses his brand new book 'The Secret History of the Universe' at Heffers Bookshop on the 12th November

We are taught that science is a question of fact and logic. But what if it isn’t? What if, instead, the greatest minds of our age were guided by secret, mystical and ‘higher’ teachings towards an understanding of the universe familiar to the builders of the pyramids of Giza or the Temple at Jerusalem?

Jonathan Black has dedicated his life to finding the answers to these, and many more questions. In this character-driven history of mysticism and its influence on modern science, from nuclear physics to the latest AI, he takes us on an exhilarating journey deep into the cosmos. What we discover is a picture of the relationship between belief and cutting-edge science that is profoundly mysterious and unexpectedly spiritual, raising deep and urgent questions about our understanding of our world.
