Science has been successful in describing the smallest scales of particle physics to the largest scales of cosmology. It has also revealed an intimate link - or cosmic connection -  between the microscopic and macroscopic domains, this culminating in the Big Bang. However, consciousness and the spiritual domain are completely absent, even though they are such fundamental features of our experience. So how can the 'Theory of Everything' be expanded to accommodate spirituality and non-material realms?

Bernard is Professor of Mathematics and Astronomy at Queen Mary University of London. His area of research is cosmology and he has a long-standing interest in the relationship between science and spirituality and the role of consciousness in physics. His recent books include Universe or Multiverse? and Quantum Black Holes.
