This mind-bending tour of metaphysics applies philosophy to the forefront of today's knowledge. Over the course of 24 fascinating lectures, Professor Johnson thinks through the big questions about humans and the universe: The relationship between the mind and the brain, how consciousness emerges from neurochemical processes, the existence of God, human free will, the possibility of time travel, and whether we live in a multiverse or even a computer simulation.

From Aristotle to Einstein, An Incomplete Theory takes us on a riveting journey through time, making pit stops at the lives of many exceptional individuals whose insightful work is the foundation of the physical science we know today. Free from equations, this book unlocks the vault of human knowledge with no assumption of scientific background on the part of the listener. It tells and weaves together the stories behind some of history’s greatest thinkers and scientific discoveries.

Astronomy is the study of what you see in the sky. Physics is the study of how things work. Astrophysics is the study of how things in the sky work, from large objects to tiny particles. Astrophysics For Dummies breaks it all down for you, making this difficult but fascinating topic accessible to anyone. Tracking the topics covered in a typical undergraduate astrophysics class, this book will teach you the essential pieces to understanding our universe.

My Big TOE: Awakening, written by a nuclear physicist in the language of contemporary culture, unifies science and philosophy, physics and metaphysics, mind and matter, purpose and meaning, the normal and the paranormal. The entirety of human experience (mind, body, and spirit) including both our objective and subjective worlds is brought together under one seamless scientific understanding.

At the end of his career, Albert Einstein was pursuing a dream far more ambitious than the theory of relativity. He was trying to find an equation that explained all physical reality - a theory of everything. Experimental physicist and award-winning educator Dr. Don Lincoln takes you on this exciting journey in The Theory of Everything: The Quest to Explain All Reality. Suitable for the intellectually curious at all levels and assuming no background beyond basic high-school math, these 24 half-hour lectures cover recent developments at the forefront of particle physics and cosmology.

A luminous guide to how the radical new science of counterfactuals can reveal that the scope of the universe is greater, and more beautiful, than we ever imagined There is a vast class of things that science has so far almost entirely neglected. They are central to the understanding of physical...

В мире науки есть множество явлений, которые кажутся невероятными, но мы вынуждены в них верить. Такие концепции, как корпускулярно-волновой дуализм света, бросают вызов привычному для нас пониманию реальности. Мы не можем увидеть темную материю, хотя она, по утверждению ученых, составляет 90% массы Вселенной. Большой взрыв—еще один пример: никто не был его свидетелем, но наука полагается на его следы как на основу современной космологии.

Join our hosts Tom & Lily as they dive into the legendary Messenger Lectures delivered by renowned physicist Richard Feynman at Cornell University in 1964. Over the course of seven episodes, we explore each lecture in detail, unraveling the profound insights Feynman shared on the nature of physical law. Whether you’re a physics enthusiast or simply curious about the workings of the universe, this podcast will guide you through Feynman’s brilliant and accessible explanations of complex ideas.

In a field known for startling ideas, the Many-Worlds Interpretation (MWI) of quantum mechanics may take the prize. It holds that parallel to our own world are a large number of other universes, almost identical to ours but with small variations. Copies of each of us inhabit a myriad of these worlds. But they are not us exactly; they share our past history, but they are different people who have unique futures. Although these realms are invisible and can’t communicate with each other, prominent physicists are convinced they must exist.
