This book was released on 2012-12-06 with total page 371 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The problems I address in this book are among the least studied in the soci ology of science and knowledge. Part I is a critique of the claim that there are parallels between ancient mysticism and modern physics, and a sociological analysis of this claim as a strategy in intellectual conflict. This study must. ultimately be rooted more firmly in a: type of sociology of knowledge that is just now beginning to crystallize (and which I discuss in Chapter 7), and a sociology of religion that is not so much unknown as underground, and timid, that is, a non-worshipful materialist sociology of religion. My study of physics-mysticism parallelism is a vehicle for exploring epistemic strategies. I thus conclude Part I by sketching a materialist, emancipatory epistemic strategy. My conclusion brings together a number of ideas formulated by myself and others over the past several years, but stops short of a systematic synthesis. A more integrated and coherent "model" than what I can sketch here must wait on the results of research now in progress in the critical (as opposed to apologetic or worshipful) sociology of knowledge.

Download or read book Modern Physics and Ancient Faith written by Stephen M. Barr and published by University of Notre Dame Pess. This book was released on 2003-02-28 with total page 476 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A considerable amount of public debate and media print has been devoted to the “war between science and religion.” In his accessible and eminently readable new book, Stephen M. Barr demonstrates that what is really at war with religion is not science itself, but a philosophy called scientific materialism. Modern Physics and Ancient Faith argues that the great discoveries of modern physics are more compatible with the central teachings of Christianity and Judaism about God, the cosmos, and the human soul than with the atheistic viewpoint of scientific materialism. Scientific materialism grew out of scientific discoveries made from the time of Copernicus up to the beginning of the twentieth century. These discoveries led many thoughtful people to the conclusion that the universe has no cause or purpose, that the human race is an accidental by-product of blind material forces, and that the ultimate reality is matter itself. Barr contends that the revolutionary discoveries of the twentieth century run counter to this line of thought. He uses five of these discoveries—the Big Bang theory, unified field theories, anthropic coincidences, Gödel’s Theorem in mathematics, and quantum theory—to cast serious doubt on the materialist’s view of the world and to give greater credence to Judeo-Christian claims about God and the universe. Written in clear language, Barr’s rigorous and fair text explains modern physics to general readers without oversimplification. Using the insights of modern physics, he reveals that modern scientific discoveries and religious faith are deeply consonant. Anyone with an interest in science and religion will find Modern Physics and Ancient Faith invaluable.

Download or read book Enthusiastic Mathematics written by Bernie Lewin and published by . This book was released on 2018-11-19 with total page 370 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Fifty years ago, a small sparse book came out under the pretentious title Laws of Form. Its author might have once fallen in with the logical philosophers of Cambridge, including Russell and Wittgenstein. But only later, while designing primitive switching circuits for British Rail, did George Spencer Brown come upon the arithmetic underlying Boolean algebra. Laws of Form flips the reduction of mathematics to logic, revealing simple laws of being and knowing that only reflect what great mystics, East and West, have been saying all along. Enthusiastic Mathematics offers the first thorough, philosophical introduction to Laws of Form. With no presumption for logic or mathematics, the reader is delivered into its philosophical vision via a colourful journey through the history of science.

Download or read book The Mystical Mind of Mathematics written by Mimi Mancham and published by . This book was released on 1996 with total page 239 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This chronicle of thought on mathematics and quantum physics describes how the focus on unifying dimensions of physical reality is being approached. Traditionally, the unifying dimensions of reality were expressed in mystical language. the foundational aspects of the mystical are presented within the context of ancient and modern mathematics. the core problem concerning the relevancy of mathematics for physics is approached in the discussion of the question, "Can mathematics provide insights into matters which cannot be seen?" Albert Einstein opted for experimental science rather than mathematics. Scientists in quantum mechanics developed a diversity of interpretations regarding ultimate dimensions of reality by means of mathematical theory. Detailed accounts are offered to explain why problems about mathematics exist, and how they are recognized in professional literature about complex adaptive systems and quantum mechanics. Competing theories are presented in reviews of recent and pivotal publications to demonstrate the enormous importance of mathematics in arriving at dimensions of knowledge beyond the experimental. Moreover, paradigm shifts related to the various interpretations are signified. Mancham supports the claim that mathematics is a vehicle for arriving at unifying aspects (the mystical) of physical reality. Her conclusions are made in reference to David Bohm's mathematical theory of his ontological interpretation rather than Niels Bohr's relativistic theory of quantum mechanics. Mancham's support of mathematics in physics is qualified only insofar as it is recognized as a valuable and effective vehicle of the human mind in the quest of understanding the ultimate nature of reality. This is in accordance with Roger Penrose, who holds that mathematics cannot explain itself. It is to be understood as a specific way by which the human mind can speculate reasonably about dimensions of reality beyond observation. It is within these mathematical speculations that ultimate aspects of physical reality can be projected and made accessible to human perceptions. Its social significance is found in the scope of a modern understanding of reality which challenges traditional world views.

Download or read book Math for Mystics written by Renna Shesso and published by Weiser Books. This book was released on 2007-04-01 with total page 208 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Much of math history comes to us from early astrologers who needed to be able to describe and record what they saw in the night sky. Whether you were the king’s court astrologer or a farmer marking the best time for planting, timekeeping and numbers really mattered. Mistake a numerical pattern of petals and you could be poisoned. Lose the rhythm of a sacred dance or the meter of a ritually told story and the intricately woven threads that hold life together were spoiled. Ignore the celestial clock of equinoxes and solstices, and you’d risk being caught short of food for the winter. Shesso’s friendly tone and clear grasp of the information make the math “go down easy” in this marvelous book.

User-friendly for the non-mathematician, the book also provides a smorgasbord of resources for those who want to know more about the math. Deeply personal but also scholarly, with an unprecedented use of mathematical metaphors, this book will appeal to mathematicians, scientists, teachers, philosophers, religious educators, and spiritual seekers of many persuasions. A math professor before becoming a Unitarian Universalist minister, the author has compiled herein a lifetime of creative study about the relationship between math and religion. She has pioneered ways to use mathematics to help clarify such spiritual ideas as God, fairness, equality, redemption, and the nature of things. In the process she coined the terms “matheology” and “mathaphor,” introduced the notion of math sermons, and has expanded the concept of moral math. This exciting collection of essays (with a little poetry as garnish) uses math as a language to nourish the spiritual heart of our global society.
