There already is such a book. Several, as a matter of fact; by John Polkinghorne. Right now I’m reading, “Quantum Physics and Theology”. The sub-title is, “An Unexpected Kinship”.

Of course there’s a kinship. YHWH created them both, along with everything else that exists.

If your book would appeal more to a layman, which includes me; that would be a plus. The one I’m reading is a hard slog, because it was written by an Anglican Priest who is also a Theoretical Physicist, and written FOR Theologians and Physicists.

Not to ruffle feathers, but this is a somewhat narrow subject, so it wouldn't be remiss for me to point out that AFAIK the first book of this genre, if you include other faiths, would be The Tao of Physics, by Fritjof Capra. Perhaps physics will end up being theologically unifying to some degree across multiple faiths.
