After four years of research in partnership with over twenty scientists and esteemed experts, this book explores one of the most significant questions we face: the existence or non-existence of a creator God.
For more than four centuries, the scientific discoveries of Copernicus, Galileo, Darwin, and Freud created the impression that we could explain the workings of the Universe without the idea of a creator--God. By the beginning of the twentieth century, materialism had become the dominant theory of the time. And yet, with unexpected and astonishing force, the pendulum of science has swung back in the other direction, owing to a rapid succession of discoveries: the theory of relativity; quantum mechanics; the Big Bang; the theories of expansion, heat death, and fine-tuning of the universe. This newly acquired knowledge has upended the certainties of the twentieth century collective consciousness. Once the only acceptable theory, materialism is increasingly considered an irrational belief.
The authors of this highly readable book retrace the fascinating history of these scientific breakthroughs and offer a rigorous overview of the new proof of the existence of God. God: the Science and the Evidence is an invitation to reflect and debate the place of God in science.
Praise
"This book thus provides a strong, rational argument for the reality of a creator God that is very comforting to those with a scientific mindset. Highly recommended!"
—Eben Alexander, MD, author of Proof of Heaven
“A very welcome, interesting and easy to read book which argues convincingly that the existence of a creator God, far from being negated by the scientific understanding of the Universe, is rationally supported by it. This is a remarkable work with hundreds of references citing leading contemporary scientists.”
—John C. Lennox, Emeritus Professor of Mathematics, University of Oxford, author of Can Science Explain Everything?
"This book is a very good presentation of the development of the Big Bang theory and its impact on our beliefs and our representation of the world…As the Big Bang theory suggests, if the Universe had a beginning, then we cannot avoid the question of creation."
—Robert Wilson, Winner of the Nobel Prize in Physics for his discovery of Cosmic Microwave Background Radiation
“In their new book God, The Science: The Evidence:The Dawn of a Revolution, Michel Yves Bollaré and Olivier Bonnassies present some of the most compelling evidence for believing in a creator God.”
—The Catholic Herald
“The book highlights in a remarkable and rigorous manner how the latest scientific advances point towards a creator God. Wonderfully documented, it also introduces many renowned scientists who advocated for a dynamic harmony and osmosis between their discoveries and the idea of a creator at the origin of all things.”
—Stéphanie Reader, Evangelical and specialist in the field of programmed cell death, author of Is it Possible? When Science and Faith Meet
“The amazing advances in science and cosmology over the past century raise fundamental questions about our existence…Michel-Yves Bolloré and Olivier Bonnassies explore these questions in a highly readable way, and give a personal account of how their answers lead them to a warranted belief in God.”
—Andrew Briggs, Professor of Physics, University of Oxford, author of The Penultimate Curiosity
"This book represents an innovation. It demonstrates that it is no longer ‘credible’ to pit science against faith…[The book] widens our field of reasoning and is an invitation to wonder."
—Cardinal Robert Sarah, Prefect Emeritus of the Congregation for Divine Worship and the Discipline of the Sacraments
"A persuasive case for how science supports a creator God."
—Robert Kaita, Princeton Astrophysicist
“Bolloré and Bonassies come armed with an impressive selection of names in the scientific field, most notably Nobel Prize-winning physicist Robert Wilson, who says of the book “if the universe had a beginning, we cannot avoid the question of creation . . . I suspect that [Richard Dawkins] would find God, the Science, the Evidence highly worthwhile."
—Spectator World
"What's documented in this splendid book is...that science leads us to God, faith and reason are allied."
—Cardinal Timothy Dolan
“Nothing less than the case for God, expressed in scientific and philosophical terms. . . . Will put fresh heart into people of faith. . . . The authors of this book are to be congratulated for putting the rational case so cogently.”
—The Catholic Herald
“No matter your religious views, this French bestseller — newly translated — is worth reading for the startling insight that much of science involves a leap of faith.”
—The Sunday Times – Books of the Year
“The science summarized here is awe-inspiring and will equip you for great conversations with the skeptics in your life.”
—The Gospel Coalition, Books We Enjoyed in 2025
“Fascinating.”
—Gerard Baker, The Wall Street Journal
“The book’s mission is to act as a primer, debate-starter, and argumentative brief for the proposition that modern science, on balance, supports rather than undermines the case for the existence of God. . . . A useful resource for anyone interested in the most profound questions of how we came to exist.”
—The National Review
“God, The Science, The Evidence…is designed in an easy-to-read format, the first half tackling each scientific breakthrough while simultaneously dismantling the prevailing materialist world-view in bite-sized chunks, and with scientists, philosophers and mathematicians from throughout history liberally quoted throughout.”
—The Daily Telegraph
“Written in a very accessible style, God, The Science, The Evidence offers a tremendous amount of information, theories, references, quotes and reactions from scientists…The entire book should fill us with a sense of wonder at the mystery, beauty and glory of creation.”
—Independent Catholic News
“Despite being a weighty volume, the book is surprisingly easy to read and packed with testimonies from ‘renowned’ scientists hailing from ‘prestigious’ universities.”
—Church Times
“Reading God – The Science, The Evidence, a secular book which unequivocally promotes the notion of a God, is like rain on parched earth, especially for a Rabbi like me.”
—Jewish News
“[Makes] the point that the existence of a creator of some sort is a perfectly reasonable hypothesis which is often simply ignored because many scientists don't like it. . . . Like my scientific hero Fred Hoyle before me, I find it difficult not to be swayed towards some kind of intention by the fine-tuning evidence. Anything more is a matter of faith, not science. But it was fascinating to see how the authors attempted to go further.”
