Book excerpt: Throughout history, people have reported seeing ghosts. But a Victorian ghost is in many respects a very different phenomenon from a ghost in Classical Greece, or in medieval Europe. Finucane surveys reports of ghosts from ancient Greece, the early Christian era, the Reformation, the Victorian age, and through the twentieth century. He asks such questions as: How have the physical aspects claimed for ghosts varied from age to age? What differences are there in the functions and intentions ascribed to ghosts? How have the changes in more general beliefsin religion and science, in particularinfluenced the perception of ghosts? Drawing on primary sources from all periods and cultures, Finucane addresses this topic in its full breadth.R.C.

Download or read book Identity and Indiscernibility in Quantum Mechanics written by Tomasz Bigaj and published by Springer Nature. This book was released on 2022-01-03 with total page 271 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book analyzes metaphysical consequences of the quantum theory of many particles with respect to the fundamental notions of identity, individuality and discernibility. The main focus is on the proper interpretation of the quantum formalism in relation to the role of permutation invariance and the adequate representation of the properties of individual subsystems. Two main approaches to the issue of the individuation of quantum particles are distinguished and thoroughly discussed. These approaches differ radically with respect to their metaphysical consequences – while one of them implies the complete indiscernibility of quantum particles of the same kind, the other one restores the possibility of discerning individual particles by their properties. We connect the problem of quantum individuation and discernibility with an analysis of the concept of quantum entanglement, and we also discuss identity over time and in counterfactual scenarios.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Why discovering the limits to science may be the most powerful discovery of allHow much can we know about the world? In this book, physicist Marcelo Gleiser traces our search for answers to the most fundamental questions of existence, the origin of the universe, the nature of reality, and the limits of knowledge. In so doing, he reaches a provocative conclusion: science, like religion, is fundamentally limited as a tool for understanding the world. As science and its philosophical interpretations advance, we face the unsettling recognition of how much we don't know. Gleiser shows that by aband.

Download or read book The Quantum Mind written by Ian Andrew Webb and published by . This book was released on 2019-04-02 with total page 270 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Ever had a strange experience, heard ghost stories, seen poltergeist cases and then asked yourself is there anything in these stories? Well, look no further. Ian Webb is an independent researcher with a research degree in Psychology. He sets out to answer two common questions: (1) do paranormal phenomena exist and (2) is there a scientific framework to understand paranormal experiences? The book assumes no knowledge of the paranormal. It takes the reader through a journey of paranormal research techniques, laboratory experiments, and case studies. Also, it discusses the potential theoretical basis to paranormal including, neurological & psychological profiles, environmental factors and the similarities between paranormal and quantum mechanics. Ian Webb discusses eight major paranormal topics which include: (1) Near Death Experiences, (2) Remote Viewing, (3) Mediumship case studies and research, (4) Cases studies of Haunted locations, (5) Poltergeist cases, (6) Extra Sensory Perception, (7) Whether humans have the ability to influence objects or people beyond normal means and (8) Research into past lives. All paranormal topics are underpinned by the principle that human consciousness can work outside of space and time. The book explores the validity of paranormal phenomena, whether science has an explanation, and examine whether there is evidence for life after life.
Download or read book The War of the Ghosts and Machines written by Mike Hockney and published by Magus Books. This book was released on with total page 729 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Are you a ghost or a machine? You don't need to be a superstitious believer to support the side of the ghosts. Machine people reduce everything to lifeless, mindless, purposeless atoms of matter: the ultimate little machines. For "ghost" people, reality reduces to dimensionless, mathematical singularities, which are none other than the hyperrational monadic souls posited by Pythagoras and Leibniz. Ghost people subscribe to atoms (minds) with atomic number zero, i.e. minds/souls are made of massless, dimensionless photons. Machine people start with hydrogen atoms, with atomic number one. All "ghost" entities are associated with zero and infinity. All machine people deny the existence of zero and infinity. Mathematically, these are the two numbers where the ghosts and the machines collide head on. This book is all about demonstrating that there are indeed ghosts in the machines.
Download or read book The Quantum Enzyme Code The Woman who Discovered the Cure for AIDS written by Matthew David Frango and published by iUniverse. This book was released on 2006-06 with total page 622 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This novel, part romance, part science fiction, part thriller, is the story of a famous child prodigy in mathematics and music, Dianna Utterson, who, later as a PHD student in biophysics, develops a fool-proof, anti-mutagenic vaccine against AIDS. It's also a story of a jealous medical student's obsession to steal the genetic code and Fourier analysis developed by his lover, Dianna, needed by his future pharmaceutical corporation to manufacture her wonder AIDS drug. The book's most interesting sub-plot is the Jesuit-controlled, Pythagorean secrecy surrounding her cure and its conflict with traditional Vatican theology. With clear allusions to quantum physics, and molecular biology as developed by the American James Watson, and the British Scientists Francis Crick and Rosalind Franklin, this novel is ideal for high school and college-age students, and those readers interested in the magic of bio-medical research in its quest to find cures for mankind's most elusive diseases. It's a lasting work that inspires readers to appreciate science through the uplifting experience of a disarming, beatific heroine, Dianna Utterson. --- Wayne Kappel, Ph.D, recipient of the Distinguished Teacher White House Commission on Presidential Scholars award, 1997
