|title=God Versus Particle Physics: A No-Score Draw
|author=John Davies
|rating=4
|genre=Popular Science
|summary=''God Versus Particle Physics: A No Score Draw'' is a bold, witty and undoubtedly controversial book that questions our blind faith in science. Davies, a psychologist, analyses the subject in detail, creating some interesting and convincing arguments concluding that some of the latest theories in the realm of physics seem to border on the metaphysical, lacking any kind of demonstrable proof. He reasons that many of the arguments used by prominent atheists, demanding evidence that God exists, can also be applied to ideas such as the Big Bang, parallel universes, dark matter and the Higgs Boson, ironically known as the ''God particle''.

|summary=[[The Curious Incident of the Dog in the Night Time by Mark Haddon]] deserves every piece of praise it received, as a children's novel with plenty to interest older readers and a wonderful way of portraying Asperger's Syndrome through its narrator, Christopher Boone. ''Ostrich'' by Matt Greene follows quite similar lines, although this time the narrator, Alex, has a brain tumour.
