How holographic patterns of information underlie our physical reality 2017 Nautilus Silver Award Includes myriad evidence from a wide range of cutting-edge scientific discoveries showing our Universe is an interconnected hologram of information Explains how consciousness is a major component of the cosmic hologram of information, making us both manifestations and co-creators of our reality Reconciles Quantum Mechanics and Einsteins Theory of Relativity by showing that energy-matter and space-time are complementary expressions of informationOur understanding of the Universe is about to transform at all levels, from the tiniest Planck scale to the vast reaches of space.
An exploration of the current revolution in scientific thought and the newest scientific findings in support of the Akashic field Explains how the new Akasha paradigm recognizes the interconnection of all things in space and time through the quantum resonance of the Akashic field Reveals the cosmos to be a self-actualizing, self-organizing whole, bringing forth life and consciousness in countless universes Explores the latest discoveries in the sciences of life, mind, and cosmos Science evolves through alternating phases of normal science and radical shifts that create scientific revolutions.
Dogon cosmology provides a new Rosetta stone for reinterpreting Egyptian hieroglyphs Provides a new understanding of Egyptian hieroglyphs as scientific symbols based on Dogon cosmological drawings Use parallels between Dogon and Egyptian word meanings to identify relationships between Dogon myths and modern science In The Science of the Dogon, Laird Scranton demonstrated that the cosmological structure described in the myths and drawings of the Dogon runs parallel to modern science--atomic theory, quantum theory, and string theory--their drawings often taking the same form as accurate scientific diagrams that relate to the formation of matter.
The profound influence of ancient cosmologies on our ideas about the human spirit Shows how ancient myths contain a sophisticated understanding of our relationship to the cosmos, derived from thousands of years of observation of the night sky Explains how ideas of the mind and spirit are still entwined with these ancient cosmologies despite the disruptive effects of modern astronomy Reveals how ancient ideas and contemporary cosmology might be combined into a new model for spiritual meaning Thousands of years before the first written records, humans were turning to the night sky as a source of meaning for existence and their place within it.
Reconstructs a theoretic parent cosmology that underlies ancient religion Shows how this parent cosmology provided the conceptual origins of written language Uses techniques of comparative cosmology to synchronize the creation traditions of the Dogon, ancient Egyptians, and ancient Buddhists Applies the signature elements of this parent cosmology to explore and interpret the creation tradition of a present-day Tibetan/Chinese tribe called the Na-Khi--the keepers of the worlds last surviving hieroglyphic language Great thinkers and researchers such as Carl Jung have acknowledged the many broad similarities that exist between the myths and symbols of ancient cultures.
Identifying the Mayan World Tree with the central axis of the cosmos, the author shows how evolution is not random Shows how the evolution of the universe emanates from the cosmic Tree of Life Explains the origin and evolution of biological life and consciousness and how this is directed Using recent findings within cosmology, coupled with his broad understanding of the Mayan Calendar, biologist Carl Johan Calleman offers a revolutionary and fully developed alternative to Darwins theory of biological evolution--and the theory of randomness that holds sway over modern science.
A reexamination of Immanuel Velikovskys controversial Venus theories in light of new astronomical and archaeological findings Provides new evidence from recent space probe missions to support Velikovskys theories on the formation of Venus Presents recently translated ancient texts from China, Korea, and Japan that uphold the cometlike descriptions of Venus cited by Velikovsky Examines evidence of major geomagnetic events in 1500 BCE and 750 BCE that correspond with close passes of the comet Venus and its impact with Mars Offers scientific explanations for many disputed aspects of Velikovskys theories, such as how Venus could have transformed from a comet into an orbiting planet Surrounded by controversy even before its publication in 1950, Immanuel Velikovskys Worlds in Collision introduced the provocative theory that Venus began as a brilliant comet ejected by Jupiter around 1600 BCE, wreaking chaos on Mars and Earth as it roamed through our solar system prior to settling into its current orbit.
'If you wish to make an apple pie from scratch, you must first invent the universe' - Carl SaganInspired by Sagan's famous line, How To Make An Apple Pie From Scratch sets out on a journey to unearth everything we know about our universe: how it started, how we found out, and what we still have left to discover .
Dive into a mind-bending exploration of the physics of black holesBlack holes, predicted by Albert Einstein's general theory of relativity more than a century ago, have long intrigued scientists and the public with their bizarre and fantastical properties.
The inside story of the epic quest to solve the mystery of dark matterThe ordinary atoms that make up the known universe-from our bodies and the air we breathe to the planets and stars-constitute only 5 percent of all matter and energy in the cosmos.

'Extraordinary' Leonard Susskind'A rare event' Sean Carroll_____When leading theoretical physicist Professor Michael Dine was asked where you could find an accessible and authoritative book that would teach you about the Big Bang, Dark Matter, the Higgs boson and the cutting edge of physics now, he had nothing he could recommend.
Max Tegmark leads us on an astonishing journey through past, present, and future, and through the physics, astronomy, and mathematics that are the foundation of his work, most particularly his hypothesis that our physical reality is a mathematical structure and his theory of the ultimate multiverse.
The full story of man's attempt to discover the moment that time began, from James Ussher's confident assertion in 1650 that the world was 5,654 years old to the Hubble Space telescope's images of a world 13 billion years old, with a starry cast of eccentrics, mystics, scientists and visonaries.
