Universe Theory

Nearly everyone is familiar with holograms - three-dimensional images projected into space with the aid of a laser. Two of the world's most eminent thinkers 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. University of London physicist David Bohm, one of the world's most respected quantum physicists, and Stanford neurophysiologist Karl Pribram, an architect of our modern understanding of the brain, have developed a remarkable new way of looking at the universe.

"[Greene] develops one fresh new insight after another...In the great tradition of physicists writing for the masses, The Elegant Universe sets a standard that will be hard to beat." --George Johnson, The New York Times Book Review In a rare blend of scientific insight and writing as elegant as...

Infinite Universe Theory presents the ultimate alternative to the Big Bang Theory and the common assumption that the universe had an origin. Author Glenn Borchardt starts with photos of the “elderly” galaxies at the observational edge of the universe. These contradict the current belief that the universe should have increasingly younger objects as we view greater distances. He restates the fundamental assumptions that must underlie the new paradigm. Notably, by assuming infinity he is able to adapt classical mechanics to “neomechanics” and its insistence that phenomena are strictly ...

The theoretical physicist shares his thoughts on the nature of space and time in this anthology of selections from Princeton University Press. Along with eminent colleagues, Hawking extends theoretical frontiers by speculating on the big questions of modern cosmology.

Before Einstein became the world’s most famous critic of quantum mechanics, he was one of its founders. In 1905, Albert Einstein proposed that light behaved as if it came in discrete packets of energy, helping explain the photoelectric effect and opening one of the earliest doors into the quantum world. But as quantum mechanics developed into a theory of probability, uncertainty, measurement, and strange connections between distant particles, Einstein grew deeply uneasy. Was quantum mechanics complete? Did particles possess real properties before measurement? Could nature truly be ...

Based on a series of lectures given at Cambridge University, The Theory of Everything presents the most complex concepts of physics—both past and present—in a clear and accessible manner. Stephen Hawking enlightens listeners and exposes them to the rich history of scientific thought and the complexities of the universe in which we live. Using computer-assisted technology, Hawking reads from his own work.

The universe may be far simpler than we were taught — and you can follow the argument all the way to the frontier. Most popular-science books leave you nodding politely at ideas you never quite grasped. A Universe from Symmetry makes a different promise: beginning with nothing but curiosity, it carries you — one unbridged step at a time — from "how big is the universe?" to the living edge of theoretical physics, with no gap you are asked to leap on faith. Written in the spirit of Richard Feynman and Roger Penrose, it is a guided ascent through the most hopeful idea in modern cosmology...

On the one hand, we have traditional science, based on the premises of materialism, reductionism, and randomness, with a belief that reality consists solely of matter and energy, that everything can be measured in the laboratory or observed by a telescope. If it can't, it doesn't exist. On the other hand, we have traditional religious dogma concerning God that fails to take into account evolution, a 4.6-billion-year-old Earth, and the conflicting claims of the world's religions.
