Book Synopsis The Labyrinth of Time by : Michael Lockwood
Download or read book The Labyrinth of Time written by Michael Lockwood and published by OUP Oxford. This book was released on 2007-07-26 with total page 416 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Modern physics has revealed the universe as a much stranger place than we could have imagined. The puzzle at the centre of our knowledge of the universe is time. Michael Lockwood takes the reader on a fascinating journey into the nature of things. He investigates philosophical questions about past, present, and future, our experience of time, and the possibility of time travel. And he provides the most careful, lively, and up-to-date introduction to the physics of time and the structure of the universe.He guides us step by step through relativity theory and quantum physics, introducing and explaining the ground-breaking ideas of Newton and Boltzmann, Einstein and Schroedinger, Penrose and Hawking. We zoom in on the behaviour of molecules and atoms, and pull back to survey the expansion of the universe. We learn about entropy and gravity, black holes and wormholes, about how it all began and where we are all headed. Lockwood's aim is not just to boggle the mind but to lead us towards an understanding of the science and philosophy. Things will never seem the same again after a voyage through The Labyrinth of Time.
Book Synopsis The Labyrinth of Time by : Anthony Peake
Download or read book The Labyrinth of Time written by Anthony Peake and published by Arcturus Publishing. This book was released on 2017-07-19 with total page 428 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Time is one of life's great mysteries. From sand passing through an hourglass to 'time's winged chariot hurrying near', we often perceive it as an unrelenting force which exists outside of ourselves. And yet anyone who remembers the long summers of childhood or has sat watching an agonisingly slow ticking clock feels that time is elastic. So which is it? Anthony Peake puts forward an incredible hypothesis about the relationship between time and consciousness. His theory explains many enigmatic phenomena, including déjà vu, precognition, near-death experience and altered states. Building upon the ideas of his groundbreaking Is There Life After Death? and drawing upon a remarkable breadth of science, philosophy and literature, his utterly compelling theory may change the way you view your life forever. Praise for Anthony Peake "Peake has the gift to explain complex theories in simple words" - Evelyn Elsaesser-Valarino, author of Lessons from the Light. "I found Peak's theory to be as thought-provoking an exhilarating as a great film" - Colin Wilson, author of The Outsider.
Download or read book Labyrinths written by Jorge Luis Borges and published by Penguin Modern Classics. This book was released on 2000 with total page 288 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Jorge Luis Borges's Labyrinths is a collection of short stories and essays showcasing one of Latin America's most influential and imaginative writers. This Penguin Modern Classics edition is edited by Donald A. Yates and James E. Irby, with an introduction by James E. Irby and a preface by André Maurois. Jorge Luis Borges was a literary spellbinder whose tales of magic, mystery and murder are shot through with deep philosophical paradoxes. This collection brings together many of his stories, including the celebrated 'Library of Babel', whose infinite shelves contain every book that could ever exist, 'Funes the Memorious' the tale of a man fated never to forget a single detail of his life, and 'Pierre Menard, Author of the Quixote', in which a French poet makes it his life's work to create an identical copy of Don Quixote. In later life, dogged by increasing blindness, Borges used essays and brief tantalising parables to explore the enigma of time, identity and imagination. Playful and disturbing, scholarly and seductive, his is a haunting and utterly distinctive voice. Jorge Luis Borges (1899-1986) was born in Buenos Aires, Argentina. A poet, critic and short story writer, he received numerous awards for his work including the 1961 International Publisher's Prize (shared with Samuel Beckett). He has a reasonable claim, along with Kafka and Joyce, to be one of the most influential writers of the twentieth century. If you enjoyed Labyrinths, you might like Franz Kafka's Metamorphosis and Other Stories, also available in Penguin Modern Classics.

Download or read book The Sleep Garden written by Jim Krusoe and published by Tin House Books. This book was released on 2016-01-27 with total page 158 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Sleep Garden explores and pushes the boundaries between fact and imagination, real and surreal, and life and the afterlife. In an underground apartment building called “the Burrow”--essentially purgatory—“twilight souls” inhabit the space between life and death. Interwoven with their stories are those of inhabitants of the living world: a retired sea captain, a psychotic former child actor (possibly the sea captain’s illegitimate son?), and the technicians who monitor the Burrow, making sure its occupants have a constant supply of oxygen and food. Through all of their stories, and the ways in which their lives, past and present, intertwine, Krusoe creates a poignant story about what constitutes a life, what remains when we die, and what we possibly carry with us into the next world.

Download or read book Time Travel written by James Gleick and published by Vintage. This book was released on 2016-09-27 with total page 354 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Best Books of 2016 BOSTON GLOBE * THE ATLANTIC From the acclaimed bestselling author of The Information and Chaos comes this enthralling history of time travel—a concept that has preoccupied physicists and storytellers over the course of the last century. James Gleick delivers a mind-bending exploration of time travel—from its origins in literature and science to its influence on our understanding of time itself. Gleick vividly explores physics, technology, philosophy, and art as each relates to time travel and tells the story of the concept's cultural evolutions—from H.G. Wells to Doctor Who, from Proust to Woody Allen. He takes a close look at the porous boundary between science fiction and modern physics, and, finally, delves into what it all means in our own moment in time—the world of the instantaneous, with its all-consuming present and vanishing future.

Download or read book Magical Paths written by Jeff Saward and published by Mitchell Beazley. This book was released on 2006-07-01 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Wind your way through a maze or a labyrinth: two symbolic journeys, both rooted in myth and mystery. But while labyrinths are flat, circulate pathways designed for the acquisition of inner peace, mazes feature patterns of barriers that challenge, confuse, and deceive the walker. After looking at the legends and evolution of these two kinds of complex, twisting paths, Jeff Saward considers the innovative ways today's land artists and garden designers have recreated labyrinths and the new "craze" for mazes-from maize mazes and mirror mazes to wood and water mazes and simple garden turf mazes. The diverse and stunning examples come from all around the world, and this breathtakingly photographed overview captures their visual excitement and unique inspiration.

Download or read book A Labyrinth Year written by Richard Kautz and published by Church Publishing, Inc.. This book was released on 2005-10-01 with total page 125 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Perhaps nothing expresses the mystery of our search for the divine as well as the labyrinth. A circular pathway based on spirals found in nature, the labyrinth is a time-honored spiritual tool in faith traditions as varied as Native American, Jewish, and Celtic. As seekers walk to the center of the labyrinth, their minds quiet and turn to God. Walking out again, they bring into the world the spiritual gifts they've received. In A Labyrinth Year, Kautz guides readers on a labyrinth pilgrimage that winds through the seasons of the liturgical year with devotions (to be used while walking the labyrinth) based on the thoughts and emotions of biblical characters whose stories are recalled in the seasonal scripture readings. As readers explore the journeys of these people of faith, they connect with the deeper meaning of the stories and learn to live them out in their own experience.
