Traces the path of discovery that revealed the nature of the atom, of light, of gravity, of the electromagnetic force, and the nature and structure of the universe.
From Atom to Kosmos offers a riveting condensation of Ancient Wisdom, and opens readers to the universal powers latent in people, powers greater than any psychic abilities. The author also reviews astronomy's speculation about one stupendous Super Universe, an exciting possibility that coincides with Theosophy's occult teachings. "Man has a higher mind," Plummer writes, "illuminated by the light of the Spiritual Soul."

A readable and engaging overview of all three periods in ancient philosophy This is Ancient Philosophy is an accessible yet comprehensive introduction to the major philosophers and foundational concepts of classical antiquity. A readable and engaging overview of all three periods in ancient philosophy, from the early (Presocratic) Greeks, to the Golden Age of philosophy, and the Hellenistic period, This is Ancient Philosophy discusses key questions and issues that are relevant to the present day. Assuming no prior knowledge in the subject, This Is Ancient Philosophy uses an intuitive, easy-to-understand narrative style as it examines the ideas, influences, and interconnections of philosophers such as Socrates, the Sophists, Plato, and Aristotle, as well as philosophical schools of thought including Cynicism, Epicureanism, Stoicism, and Skepticism. Divided into three parts, the book opens with an overview of early Greek philosophy, describing the turn from mythological thinking to philosophical analysis. The second part focuses on the distinctions between the subjects of philosophy in both the Golden Age and today, followed by a survey of the Hellenistic period and a discussion of the relation between fate and freedom of action. Presents a unique combined approach to ancient philosophy, offering both chapters on authors and chapters on themes Helps readers gain an understanding of the origins, development, and influence of ancient philosophy Features a wealth of instructive and engaging charts, grids, and figures throughout Includes a detailed map illustrating the chronological development of philosophy, from Asia Minor to southern Italy and Athens Part of the popular This Is Philosophy series, This Is Ancient Philosophy is an excellent text for students of philosophy, both introductory and advanced, and general readers with interest in the philosophy of the classical era.

NATIONAL BESTSELLER • From one of the world’s leading physicists and author of the Pulitzer Prize finalist The Elegant Universe, comes “an astonishing ride” through the universe (The New York Times) that makes us look at reality in a completely different way. Space and time form the very fabric of the cosmos. Yet they remain among the most mysterious of concepts. Is space an entity? Why does time have a direction? Could the universe exist without space and time? Can we travel to the past? Greene has set himself a daunting task: to explain non-intuitive, mathematical concepts like String Theory, the Heisenberg Uncertainty Principle, and Inflationary Cosmology with analogies drawn from common experience. From Newton’s unchanging realm in which space and time are absolute, to Einstein’s fluid conception of spacetime, to quantum mechanics’ entangled arena where vastly distant objects can instantaneously coordinate their behavior, Greene takes us all, regardless of our scientific backgrounds, on an irresistible and revelatory journey to the new layers of reality that modern physics has discovered lying just beneath the surface of our everyday world.
Is the universe actually a giant quantum computer? According to Seth Lloyd, the answer is yes. All interactions between particles in the universe, Lloyd explains, convey not only energy but also information–in other words, particles not only collide, they compute. What is the entire universe computing, ultimately? “Its own dynamical evolution,” he says. “As the computation proceeds, reality unfolds.” Programming the Universe, a wonderfully accessible book, presents an original and compelling vision of reality, revealing our world in an entirely new light.
