Download or read book Origins of Universal Systems written by Alexander Alan Scarborough and published by Trafford Publishing. This book was released on 2008-09-19 with total page 647 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "When the right answers are found, they will be simple and beautiful." — Einstein. Paraphrasing Thomas Kuhn in his Structure of Scientific Revolutions, there can be no change in direction of scientific thought unless there is a viable alternative. Now after 35 years of persistent research, the author's plethora of substantiated evidence offers science a valid alternative to the Big Bang: the LB-FLINE-BEC model of universal origins, one that fulfills Einstein's prediction, and meets Kuhn's criteria. In fulfilling both predictions, the new model reveals a plethora of impossibilities comprising the Big Bang myth, while forming powerful arguments for relegating the Big Bang to the ashes of history. The revolutionary model, a macroscopic theory of everything, is ideal for a microscopic Theory of Everything. Thomas Huxley stated it best: "The microcosm repeats the macrocosm," a connection placing science in a favorable position for attaining the long-sought Theory of Everything. As long as the Big Bang/Accretion hypotheses remain in vogue, comprehending universal origins and functions will remain impossible. In sharp contrast, the new model alternative opens floodgates to definitive evidence of universal origins and functions. Why, in the Big Bang perspective, substantiated solutions to universal anomalies will always remain unattainable, while in the LB-FLINE-BEC perspective, substantiated solutions to universal anomalies are readily attainable? Three simple and beautiful examples (out of many): The dynamic fiery, geometrical spacing of planets in elliptical orbits. Why Pluto was originally the tenth planet in our Solar System, and now is the ninth planet. Why extra-solar systems are weirdly different from our geometrically-spaced Solar System.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Long ago, during our era, a gigantic spaceship travels silently through a galaxy far away from our Earth. For more than a hundred generations, the ship has been home to the growlers, a savage species who have never seen their home planet, Kezmara. As the ship continues on its course, the commander understands his orders are to locate the universal collector an indestructible object that stores all essential data occurring during each era on planet Ardon and transport it to Kezmara. However, unbeknownst to the leaders of Kezmara, the commander is about to take matters into his own hands. After the commander issues new orders for the growlers to take control of the collector, enslave the inhabitants of Ardon, and create a new home for themselves, the ships inhabitants have no idea of what or whom they are about to encounter on the strange planet. Meanwhile on Ardon, the timekeeper and his daughter, Liana, are prepared to do everything in their power to defend the collector, including moving it to another planet. But when the timekeeper discovers his people are not prepared for what they are about to face, he realizes the responsibility for saving the collector lies within him. In this intriguing science fiction tale, a timekeeper and his cohorts risk everything as they battle to save the collector, their species, and their planet from an evil alien force determined to carry out their mission.

Download or read book Universal Laws of Nature and Cells written by Goran Indjic and published by iUniverse. This book was released on 2019-03-29 with total page 285 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The structure and metabolism of prokaryotic and eukaryotic cells reveals their nature and evolution, which can lead to new treatments for infectious and malignant diseases. Goran Indjic, a physician and clinical microbiologist, shares a detailed analysis of the phenomena of prokaryotic and eukaryotic cells in the book. Taking an innovative approach, he upends contemporary literature in the field. Relying on biology, philosophy, other scientific disciplines, and even art, Indjic offers fresh ideas and experiments for investigating the nature of prokaryotic and eukaryotic cells. According to this new approach, basic structures of prokaryotic and eukaryotic cells consist of polypeptides that build protein and nucleic acid spirals, which in turn build strings that generate filaments of prokaryotic cells and complex cylinders of eukaryotic cells. The author describes in detail the strings, filaments, and complex cylinders that are structures of the cells, built and unified by metabolism. Previously, prokaryotic and eukaryotic structures were observed in dead cells without deeper thinking and imagination. With deeper analysis, imagination, and thinking Universal Laws of Nature and Cells offers insights into the cellular phenomena and practical taxonomy of prokaryotic cells.

Download or read book Experiments in Mystical Atheism written by Brook Ziporyn and published by University of Chicago Press. This book was released on 2024-10-30 with total page 385 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A new approach to the theism-scientism divide rooted in a deeper form of atheism. Western philosophy is stuck in an irresolvable conflict between two approaches to the spiritual malaise of our times: either we need more God (the “turn to religion”) or less religion (the New Atheism). In this book, Brook Ziporyn proposes an alternative that avoids both totalizing theomania and atomizing reductionism. What we need, he argues, is a deeper, more thoroughgoing, even religious rejection of God: an affirmative atheism without either a creator to provide meaning or finite creatures in need of it—a mystical atheism. In the legacies of Daoism and Buddhism as well as Spinoza, Nietzsche, and Bataille, Ziporyn discovers a critique of theism that develops into a new, positive sensibility—at once deeply atheist and richly religious. Experiments in Mystical Atheism argues that these “godless epiphanies” hold the key to renewing philosophy today.

Download or read book Seven Universal Principles and the Seventh Sense written by Nader Butto and published by AuthorHouse. This book was released on 2015-04-24 with total page 336 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: One of the main goals of modern physics is to realize a single theory that will be able to unify the various theories and describe the universe with all its known and unknown facets. In order to find a unifying theory we must observe the universe and try to understand the universal laws that regulate all its parts. It becomes obvious that chemistry and physics are not enough to solve the riddle or explain the full complexity of the physiology of the human body. It is only when we add the energetic dimension to chemistry and physics that we understand the full expression of human life in every dimension. In this book the author present a new theory based on seven laws that embrace the universe and unify the forces of physics, biology, physiology, religion and spirituality. A new paradigm that links different cultures and different disciplines, science with philosophy, physics with spirituality and arts with mathematics. ... He compare the quantum realm and spirituality and gives a practical method to develop the seventh sense by which we can have access to the spiritual world and quantum realm in order to obtain information directly from the patient without using our five senses which are limited in space and time. A new definition of the basic concepts in medicine such as homeostasis, well being, malaise and disease and give the basis for a new model of diagnosis and treatment, that increases the awareness of the psychological-physical connection, enhance each persons capacity for self-knowledge and self-care, and promote the development of higher states of harmony and wholeness in the complex mind-energy-body connection in order to feel fulfill and achieve happiness.

Download or read book Universal Citizenship written by R. Andrés Guzmán and published by University of Texas Press. This book was released on 2019-01-15 with total page 278 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Recently, many critics have questioned the idea of universal citizenship by pointing to the racial, class, and gendered exclusions on which the notion of universality rests. Rather than jettison the idea of universal citizenship, however, R. Andrés Guzmán builds on these critiques to reaffirm it especially within the fields of Latina/o and ethnic studies. Beyond conceptualizing citizenship as an outcome of recognition and admittance by the nation-state—in a negotiation for the right to have rights—he asserts that, insofar as universal citizenship entails a forceful entrance into the political from the latter’s foundational exclusions, it emerges at the limits of legality and illegality via a process that exceeds identitarian capture. Drawing on Lacanian psychoanalysis and philosopher Alain Badiou’s notion of “generic politics,” Guzmán advances his argument through close analyses of various literary, cultural, and legal texts that foreground contention over the limits of political belonging. These include the French Revolution, responses to Arizona’s H.B. 2281, the 2006 immigrant rights protests in the United States, the writings of Oscar “Zeta” Acosta, Frantz Fanon’s account of Algeria’s anticolonial struggle, and more. In each case, Guzmán traces the advent of the “citizen” as a collective subject made up of anyone who seeks to radically transform the organizational coordinates of the place in which she or he lives.
