Provides evidence that human consciousness can never be reproduced and exposes the perils of artificial intelligence *; Explains how consciousness transcends the brain and body through quantum theory and accounts of consciousness in the clinically dead *; Shares scientific evidence of how the image on the Shroud of Turin was produced and connects these findings to evidence concerning near-death experiences *; Reveals how consciousness cannot be reproduced by a machine and how attempts to do so threaten what makes us human Stephen Hawking once said that the unanticipated consequences of artificial intelligence will be the greatest threat to humanity's survival.
A study of the new scientific understanding of consciousness and the mind as a fifth dimension of reality *; Introduces the existence of a fifth dimension--one of mind--an inner- or hyperspace where time is transcended *; Shows how the barrier of the speed of light is actually a gateway demarking the fifth dimension Since the introduction of Descartes' dualism in the seventeenth century, the mind and the physical world have been viewed as disconnected entities.
How ancient Egyptians understood quantum theory *; Investigates the history of how modern religion and the Age of Science were inspired by the sacred science of the ancients *; Examines how quantum theory explains that the cosmos arises from consciousness *; Reveals the unanimity between Schwaller de Lubicz's ';sacred science' and the science of a cosmos governed by quantum mechanics Since the dawn of the Age of Science humankind has been engaged in a methodical quest to understand the cosmos.
Fundamental does for physics what Tim's first book, Elemental, does for chemistry: it demystifies the topic in his trademark humorous, engaging style, including the most recent developments in the field.
A brief introduction to gravity through Einstein's general theory of relativityOf the four fundamental forces of nature, gravity might be the least understood and yet the one with which we are most intimate.
Nobel Prize-winning physicist Roger Penrose questions some of the most fashionable ideas in physics today, including string theoryWhat can fashionable ideas, blind faith, or pure fantasy possibly have to do with the scientific quest to understand the universe?

'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.
Human beings, says Lee Smolin, author of The Trouble With Physics, have always had a problem with the boundary between reality and fantasy, confusing our representations of the world with the world itself.
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 bestselling author of Fermat's Last Theorem and The Code Book tells the story of the brilliant minds that deciphered the mysteries of the Big Bang.
*; Develops the concept of the metaverse, the ';transcendental universe,' composed of additional hidden dimensions operating in parallel with space and time*; Integrates and maps the theories of consciousness developed by Carl Jung, David Bohm, Pierre Teilhard de Chardin, and other scientists*; Offers the reader a path into the hidden dimensions through detailed maps of psyche, mind, and cosmosThe "e;metaverse"e;as this wider universe is now coming to be knownis rooted in one interconnected consciousness that encompasses space and time as well as previously unknown dimensions only recently detected.
