Download or read book The Science of Possibility written by Freeman Jon and published by . This book was released on 2014-06-16 with total page 384 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book offers a radical perspective uniting science with spiritual experience and non-ordinary views of reality. It provides a comprehensive view through physics, biology, genetics, psychology and human development. The result is a connected web that shows the patterns connecting consciousness to material existence. It reveals the non-ordinary reality of intuition, psychic experience and alternative medicine as not just side-effects created by human minds, but as the ground base of reality that underpins and defines material existence. Everything that universe consists of rests in patterns of relationship. All that we are lives in and influences those patterns. This is the source of our potential and possibility.
Download or read book The Physics of Possibility written by Michael Tondre and published by University of Virginia Press. This book was released on 2018-08-16 with total page 240 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Physics of Possibility traces the sensational birth of mathematical physics in Victorian literature, science, and statistics. As scientists took up new breakthroughs in quantification, they showed how all sorts of phenomena—the condition of stars, atoms, molecules, and nerves—could be represented as a set of probabilities through time. Michael Tondre demonstrates how these techniques transformed the British novel. Fictions of development by Charles Dickens, George Eliot, and others joined the vogue for alternative possibilities. Their novels not only reflected received pieties of maturation but plotted a wider number of deviations from the norms of reproductive adulthood. By accentuating overlooked elements of form, Tondre reveals the novel’s changing identification with possible worlds through the decades when physics became a science of all things. In contrast to the observation that statistics served to invent normal populations, Tondre brings influential modes of historical thinking to the foreground. His readings reveal an acute fascination with alternative temporalities throughout the period, as novelists depicted the categories of object, action, and setting in new probabilistic forms. Privileging fiction’s agency in reimagining historical realities, never simply sanctioning them, Tondre revises our understanding of the novel and its ties to the ascendant Victorian sciences.

Download or read book A New Kind of Science written by Stephen Wolfram and published by . This book was released on 2002 with total page 1197 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This work presents a series of dramatic discoveries never before made public. Starting from a collection of simple computer experiments---illustrated in the book by striking computer graphics---Wolfram shows how their unexpected results force a whole new way of looking at the operation of our universe. Wolfram uses his approach to tackle a remarkable array of fundamental problems in science: from the origin of the Second Law of thermodynamics, to the development of complexity in biology, the computational limitations of mathematics, the possibility of a truly fundamental theory of physics, and the interplay between free will and determinism.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Schouls limits himself to a discussion of these three concepts in order to escape facile and vague generalizations. For the same reason, in relating Descartes to eighteenth-century thinkers, Schouls limits his attention to a single part of the spectrum of acknowledged Enlightenment reflection, the French "philosopes." From their writings he demonstrates that they are, and acknowledge themselves to be, Descartes' progeny.

Download or read book Undoing Monogamy written by Angela Willey and published by Duke University Press. This book was released on 2016-04-28 with total page 190 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In Undoing Monogamy Angela Willey offers a radically interdisciplinary exploration of the concept of monogamy in U.S. science and culture, propelled by queer feminist desires for new modes of conceptualization and new forms of belonging. She approaches the politics and materiality of monogamy as intertwined with one another such that disciplinary ways of knowing themselves become an object of critical inquiry. Refusing to answer the naturalization of monogamy with a naturalization of nonmonogamy, Willey demands a critical reorientation toward the monogamy question in the natural sciences, social sciences, and humanities. The book examines colonial sexual science, monogamous voles, polyamory, and the work of Alison Bechdel and Audre Lorde to show how challenging the lens through which human nature is seen as monogamous or nonmonogamous forces us to reconsider our investments in coupling and in disciplinary notions of biological bodies.

Download or read book The Book of Possibilities written by Earthlinks Circle and published by . This book was released on 2012-07-01 with total page 264 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: It is widely recognised that we have reached a critical point in human development. Our planet struggles to maintain its health; human beings are confronted globally by deep-seated conflicts and destructive patterns of behaviour. Many of us, driven by short-term self-interest, have lost touch with our connectedness to the web of life. At the same time, developments in the fields of science, consciousness studies and spirituality suggest that we are on the verge of a step change in our understanding of the nature of the universe and of the place of consciousness within it. Humanity has reached a point where it is both possible and required that it take an active and intelligent part in its own evolution. This book assists in that process. It goes beyond the self help focus on the individual and demonstrates that the capacity to change how we individually and collectively experience life for the joy of that experience is greatly enhanced through working consciously for the highest good of all beings. It enables us to instigate a collective choice for the exercise of this capacity to become our reality.The book draws on current experience, ancient mystical traditions and newly received psycho-spiritual approaches to offer guidance and tools, laid out in a way that is easily accessible to all. The Earthlinks Circle The book is authored by a group of seven diverse individuals and represents their distilled experience of over twelve years collective meditative practice working together to help manifest the highest potential for human and planetary evolution for the greatest good of all being.
Download or read book Science and Religion written by Lucas F. Johnston and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2014-02-05 with total page 357 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This collection offers new perspectives on the study of science and religion, bringing together articles that highlight the differences between epistemological systems and call into question the dominant narrative of modern science. The volume provides historical context for the contemporary discourse around religion and science, detailing the emergence of modern science from earlier movements related to magic and other esoteric arts, the impact of the Reformation on science, and the dependence of Western science on the so-called Golden Age of Islam. In addition, contributors examine the impacts of Western science and colonialism on the ongoing theft of the biological resources of traditional and indigenous communities in the name of science and medicine. The volume’s multi-perspectival approach aims to refocus the terms of the conversation around science and religion, taking into consideration multiple rationalities outside of the dominant discourse.

Download or read book The Next 500 Years written by Christopher E. Mason and published by MIT Press. This book was released on 2022-04-12 with total page 295 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: An argument that we have a moral duty to explore other planets and solar systems--because human life on Earth has an expiration date. Inevitably, life on Earth will come to an end, whether by climate disaster, cataclysmic war, or the death of the sun in a few billion years. To avoid extinction, we will have to find a new home planet, perhaps even a new solar system, to inhabit. In this provocative and fascinating book, Christopher Mason argues that we have a moral duty to do just that. As the only species aware that life on Earth has an expiration date, we have a responsibility to act as the shepherd of life-forms--not only for our species but for all species on which we depend and for those still to come (by accidental or designed evolution). Mason argues that the same capacity for ingenuity that has enabled us to build rockets and land on other planets can be applied to redesigning biology so that we can sustainably inhabit those planets. And he lays out a 500-year plan for undertaking the massively ambitious project of reengineering human genetics for life on other worlds. As they are today, our frail human bodies could never survive travel to another habitable planet. Mason describes the toll that long-term space travel took on astronaut Scott Kelly, who returned from a year on the International Space Station with changes to his blood, bones, and genes. Mason proposes a ten-phase, 500-year program that would engineer the genome so that humans can tolerate the extreme environments of outer space--with the ultimate goal of achieving human settlement of new solar systems. He lays out a roadmap of which solar systems to visit first, and merges biotechnology, philosophy, and genetics to offer an unparalleled vision of the universe to come.
