Victor J. Stenger, one of Prometheus Books' "most prolific and important authors," died on August 27. He was 79.
An adjunct professor of philosophy at the University of Colorado and professor emeritus of physics and astronomy at the University of Hawaii, Stenger's bestselling book was God: The Failed Hypothesis. Tomorrow is the pub date of Stenger's 13th Prometheus book, God and the Multiverse: Humanity's Expanding View of the Cosmos.
Prometheus publisher Jonathan Kurtz commented: "Victor Stenger was a visionary thinker. He had the rare ability to write for the academic reader as well as the layman. He was the ultimate professional and a close friend of Prometheus, with a relationship going back many years. We will miss him greatly."
