The Priveliged Planet - a new book by Guillermo Gonzalez and Jay W. Richards

Gonzalez and Richards take a fresh look at the astonishing, finely tuned suitability of the universe to support life. Touching on elements of the long standing anthropic cosmological principle, the authors explore an alternative theoretical explanatory basis for why physics seems tuned within extremely fine tolerances to support life, and humanity has such a good celestial vantage point to observe the universe.
