The Dancing WuLi Masters: An Overview of the New Physics Gary Zukav paperbackZukav has written "the Bible" for those who are curious about the mind-expanding discoveries of advanced physics, but who have no scientific background. Like a Wu Li Master who would teach us wonder for the falling petal before speaking of gravity, Zukav writes in beautifully clear language -- with no mathematical equations -- opening our minds to the exciting new theories that are beginning to embrace the ultimate nature of our universe... Quantum mechanics, relativity, and beyond to the Einstein-Podolsky-Rosen effect and Bell's theorem. |
The Holographic Universe Michael Talbot paperbackToday nearly everyone is familiar with holograms, three-dimensional images projected into space with the aid of a laser. Now, two of the world's most eminent thinkers -- University of London physicist David Bohm, a former protege of Einstein's and one of the world's most respected quantum physicists, and Stanford neurophysiologist Karl Pribram, one of the architects of our modern understanding of the brain -- believe that the universe itself may be a giant hologram, quite literally a kind of image or construct created, at least in part, by the human mind. This remarkable new way of looking at the universe explains not only many of the unsolved puzzles of physics, but also such mysterious occurrences as telepathy, out-of-body and near-death experiences, "lucid" dreams, and even religious and mystical experiences such as feelings of cosmic unity and miraculous healings. |
A Brief History of Time: From the Big Bang to Black Holes Stephen W. Hawking paperback
hardbackby the author,"I decided to try and write a popular book about space and time. There were already a considerable number of books about the early universe and black holes; however, I felt that none of them really addressed the questions that had led me to do research in cosmology and quantum theory: Where did the universe come from? How and why did it begin? Will it come to an end, and if so, how? These are questions that are of interest to us all. But modern science has become so technical that only a very small number of specialists are able to master the mathematics used to describe them. Yet the basic ideas about the origin and fate of the universe can be stated without mathematics in a form that people without a scientific education can understand. This is what I have attempted to do in this book. The reader must judge whether I have succeeded." |
The Global Brain Awakens: Our Next Evolutionary Leap Peter Russell paperbackSpanning from the Big Bang to the Information Age and beyond goes back to the beginning of time to take the reader on a flowing fascinating journey to our current world and our possible future. Extracting from the realities of today's unprecedented technological growth, ecological imbalance, political strife and emerging social-awareness author Peter Russell supposes that we are on the verge of a major planetary transformation-which in all of human and planetary history has never been so dangerous or promising. |
