This book was released on 2017-04-04 with total page 357 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "Beautifully written, eloquently reasoned…Mr. Buonomano takes us off and running on an edifying scientific journey." —Carol Tavris, Wall Street Journal In Your Brain Is a Time Machine, leading neuroscientist Dean Buonomano embarks on an "immensely engaging" exploration of how time works inside the brain (Barbara Kiser, Nature). The human brain, he argues, is a complex system that not only tells time, but creates it; it constructs our sense of chronological movement and enables "mental time travel"—simulations of future and past events. These functions are essential not only to our daily lives but to the evolution of the human race: without the ability to anticipate the future, mankind would never have crafted tools or invented agriculture. This virtuosic work of popular science will lead you to a revelation as strange as it is true: your brain is, at its core, a time machine.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Easy, enlightening and mind-stretching, here are answers to the 20 biggest questions of evolution and what they tell us about life on Earth. The Big Questions series is designed to let renowned experts address the 20 most fundamental and frequently asked questions of a major branch of science or philosophy. Each 3,000-word essay simply and concisely examines a question that has eternally perplexed enquiring minds, and provides answers based on the latest research. This ambitious project is a unique distillation of humanity's best ideas. In The Big Questions: Evolution, Francisco Ayala answers the 20 key questions: What is evolution? Was Darwin right? What is natural selection? What is survival of the fittest? Is evolution a random process? What is a species? What are chromosomes, genes and DNA? How do genes build bodies? What is molecular evolution? How did life begin? What is the tree of life? Am I really a monkey? What does the fossil record tell us? What is the missing link? Is intelligence inherited? Will humans continue to evolve? Can I clone myself? Where does morality come from? Is language a uniquely human attribute? Is Creationism true?
Download or read book Eternal Ephemera written by Niles Eldredge and published by Columbia University Press. This book was released on 2015-03-03 with total page 399 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: All organisms and species are transitory, yet life endures. The origin, extinction, and evolution of species—interconnected in the web of life as "eternal ephemera"—are the concern of evolutionary biology. In this riveting work, renowned paleontologist Niles Eldredge follows leading thinkers as they have wrestled for more than two hundred years with the eternal skein of life composed of ephemeral beings, revitalizing evolutionary science with their own, more resilient findings. Eldredge begins in France with the naturalist Jean-Baptiste Lamarck, who in 1801 first framed the overarching question about the emergence of new species. The Italian geologist Giambattista Brocchi followed, bringing in geology and paleontology to expand the question. In 1825, at the University of Edinburgh, Robert Grant and Robert Jameson introduced the astounding ideas formulated by Lamarck and Brocchi to a young medical student named Charles Darwin. Who can doubt that Darwin left for his voyage on the Beagle in 1831 filled with thoughts about these daring new explanations for the "transmutation" of species. Eldredge revisits Darwin's early insights into evolution in South America and his later synthesis of knowledge into a theory of the origin of species. He then considers the ideas of more recent evolutionary thinkers, such as George Gaylord Simpson, Ernst Mayr, and Theodosius Dobzhansky, as well as the young and brash Niles Eldredge and Steven Jay Gould, who set science afire with their concept of punctuated equilibria. Filled with insights into evolutionary biology and told with a rich affection for the scientific arena, this book celebrates the organic, vital relationship between scientific thinking and its subjects.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The nature of existence is a simple and profound truth that forms the basis for our concept of being. Life functions to develop meaning by evolving the value of thought, feeling, and action in concordance with the being and processes of existence. The Answer to the Question is an evolving understanding of the nature of existence that illuminates the cosmology of the universe, the role of life, and the connection between the mortal and the immortal.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Three Windows on Eternity is an exploratory voyage past the frontiers of our knowledge and scientific understanding. It has led the author to inspirational insights about the role of the individual human being in the current phase of the evolutionary process. The author takes the reader on a journey through evolution from the Big Bang to the 21st century. Based on scientific research and personal observation, he argues and concludes that of the 13.5 billion years of evolution, the first 10 billion years, a so-called inorganic evolutionary period lasting from the Big Bang until the emergence of life, was irrefutably governed by a magnificent design. By 'design' he does not mean 'intelligent' design but a state resulting from the eight fundamental constants of nature that emerged in the first nanoseconds following the birth of the universe. That state is a question of personal interpretation, inspired by religious belief or otherwise. The story of evolution presented in this book can raise awareness and inspiration in today's younger generations as they try to realize a controlled transition within the next 25 years, thus avoiding an uncontrolled overshoot/collapse scenario. In this respect, we are playing with time. The author is convinced that many young people who will populate the world in that period are keen to learn from the new story of evolution and are eager to act and contribute to a constructive new phase in that evolution in the 21st century.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Most people are familiar with Darwin's book, "On the Origin of the Species." His hypotheses have led to widespread speculation regarding the origin of the universe as well as life. After nearly two-centuries, what was written as possible, is now accepted as factual. Is it though? Is man no more than a tree or a frog? Are amoeba the origin of mankind? Are apes truly the primal ancestors of mankind? Many believe so, but has the world been misled?Rational people want more than what evolution theory offers. Many want to have hope! There is no hope in evolution, but many have confidence in it. Confident of what? That they now exist but will die? People want the truth. Truth certainly includes everything that can be sensed, but are the five senses all there is? Many Christians claim to have experienced God. Is there more to truth than what is seen or measured? Truth is comprehended by the mind. The gamble is too great not to be certain. Most have been persuaded that evolution is truth. The theme throughout the pages of this book is to question the readers' certainty. Have most been persuaded wrongly? Is what we sense all there is? Has the "god" of evolution cheated naïve people of a great portion of their existential life?"On the Origin and Survival of the Species" presents the case for God. It is not a refutation of Darwin but an apologetic for God. Creationists believe that God's abilities have been misappropriated; that since His role is Creator, which most have attributed to chance, then God is diminished.Regeneration implies generation. To be re-created, Christians must have been created. Without the creation, regeneration is foolishness and eternal life an opiate. Most people have been fed with evolution theory since they entered school. Within these pages is an opportunity to question what you have been taught. What is there to gain by examining the notion of creation? Perhaps peace, happiness, joy, and hope. Evolution offers no hope to extend what rational people want most - an eternal existence in Paradise.Even many Christians deny God as Creator yet expect Him to save them for eternity. Evolution theory has no Heaven in which to live eternally. Creationism is essential Christian doctrine. For God to save, there must be God. By definition, god's create, and if truly a God, only One is needed.
