Issues discussed include: materialism and its role in science, whether belief in God is compatible with a scientific perspective, and parapsychology. Michael Shermer is Editor-in-Chief of Skeptic magazine and the author of numerous books including Skeptic . Rupert Sheldrake is a biologist and author of ten books including his most recent, Science Set Free , which challenges scientific dogma.
