I'm a theoretician. I notice trends and consolidate them. It's just what I do.In the summer of 2017, I upgraded my science to Science 2.0. Science 2.0 allows ALL of the evidence into evidence and is based upon the Lived Experiences (phenomenology) of the human race, including our non-local experiences or transdimensional experiences. Science 2.0 is the way that science should have always been done but wasn't. Under Science 2.0, everything is taken into consideration; and, I chose to go with a preponderance of the evidence.From the very beginning, I felt that Science 2.0 needed to justify its existence. The way that it does so is by repeatedly demonstrating through comparison and contrast that Science 2.0 is vastly superior to Scientific Naturalism and Eliminative Materialism.Science 2.0 is based upon Phenomenology. Phenomenology is the scientific study of events, experiences, and phenomena of all types. The BEST way to find and know the truth is to live it and experience it for yourself, or to choose to trust someone who has. The second-best way to find and know the truth is through a process of elimination. If we eliminate everything that is false, has been falsified, has never been experienced nor observed, or has been demonstrated to be false and impossible, then eventually only the truth will remain. The Ultimate Truth that remains after the false and the falsified have been eliminated is the fact that Psyche or Non-Local Consciousness is the Ultimate Causal Agent in all dimensions and in every universe.One of the first fruits from my upgrade to Science 2.0 is a new science that I call Quantum Neuroscience. Quantum Neuroscience is the scientific study of how the Human Psyche interacts with and controls its physical brain. Quantum Neuroscience is primarily a human science, because only human beings write, tell, report, and share their non-local experiences, near-death experiences, out-of-body experiences, quantum experiences, psychic experiences, supernatural experiences, encounters with God, shared-death experiences, visions, revelations, and other types of transdimensional or spiritual experiences. That doesn't mean that other species don't have these types of experiences. It just means that only human beings or human psyches have the language capabilities necessary to share these types of experiences with other human beings.As an integral part of Science 2.0, Quantum Neuroscience allows ALL of the evidence into evidence. Quantum Neuroscience is an evidentiary science. It stands in stark contrast to the things we had before, which were based upon a rejection of evidence and a refusal to look at evidence. Quantum Neuroscience is an observational science, experiential science, eye-witness science, and empirical science that's based upon the Phenomenology or the Lived Experiences of the human race through a preponderance of the evidence. Quantum Neuroscience is an attempt to understand and explain the physically impossible. I hope you will find it as interesting as I found it to be.Ironically, everything within Quantum Neuroscience is discovered, verified, and proven Science. Quantum Field Theory, Action at a Distance, and Quantum Mechanics are proven science. They have been constantly verified and proven true. In this book, I'm simply using them to explain Neuroscience, as should have been done decades ago. When it comes to Quantum Neuroscience, there's nothing to prove. It has already been proven true. I simply took it and ran with it.

Robert Lanza is one of the most respected scientists in the world a US News and World Report cover story called him a genius and a renegade thinker, even likening him to Einstein. Lanza has teamed with Bob Berman, the most widely read astronomer in the world, to produce Biocentrism, a revolutionary new view of the universe. Every now and then a simple yet radical idea shakes the very foundations of knowledge. The startling discovery that the world was not flat challenged and ultimately changed the way people perceived themselves and their relationship with the world. For most humans of the 15th century, the notion of Earth as ball of rock was nonsense. The whole of Western, natural philosophy is undergoing a sea change again, increasingly being forced upon us by the experimental findings of quantum theory, and at the same time, toward doubt and uncertainty in the physical explanations of the universes genesis and structure. Biocentrism completes this shift in worldview, turning the planet upside down again with the revolutionary view that life creates the universe instead of the other way around. In this paradigm, life is not an accidental byproduct of the laws of physics. Biocentrism takes the reader on a seemingly improbable but ultimately inescapable journey through a foreign universe our own from the viewpoints of an acclaimed biologist and a leading astronomer. Switching perspective from physics to biology unlocks the cages in which Western science has unwittingly managed to confine itself. Biocentrism will shatter the readers ideas of life--time and space, and even death. At the same time it will release us from the dull worldview of life being merely the activity of an admixture of carbon and a few other elements; it suggests the exhilarating possibility that life is fundamentally immortal. The 21st century is predicted to be the Century of Biology, a shift from the previous century dominated by physics. It seems fitting, then, to begin the century by turning the universe outside-in and unifying the foundations of science with a simple idea discovered by one of the leading life-scientists of our age. Biocentrism awakens in readers a new sense of possibility, and is full of so many shocking new perspectives that the reader will never see reality the same way again.

"A thorough, illuminating exploration of the most consequential controversy raging in modern science." --New York Times Book Review An Editor's Choice, New York Times Book Review Longlisted for PEN/E.O. Wilson Prize for Literary Science Writing Longlisted for Goodreads Choice Award Every physicist agrees quantum mechanics is among humanity's finest scientific achievements. But ask what it means, and the result will be a brawl. For a century, most physicists have followed Niels Bohr's solipsistic and poorly reasoned Copenhagen interpretation. Indeed, questioning it has long meant professional ruin, yet some daring physicists, such as John Bell, David Bohm, and Hugh Everett, persisted in seeking the true meaning of quantum mechanics. What Is Real? is the gripping story of this battle of ideas and the courageous scientists who dared to stand up for truth. "An excellent, accessible account." --Wall Street Journal "Splendid. . . . Deeply detailed research, accompanied by charming anecdotes about the scientists." --Washington Post

A thought-provoking argument that consciousness—more widespread than previously assumed—is the feeling of being alive, not a type of computation or a clever hack In The Feeling of Life Itself, Christof Koch offers a straightforward definition of consciousness as any subjective experience, from the most mundane to the most exalted—the feeling of being alive. Psychologists study which cognitive operations underpin a given conscious perception. Neuroscientists track the neural correlates of consciousness in the brain, the organ of the mind. But why the brain and not, say, the liver? How can the brain—three pounds of highly excitable matter, a piece of furniture in the universe, subject to the same laws of physics as any other piece—give rise to subjective experience? Koch argues that what is needed to answer these questions is a quantitative theory that starts with experience and proceeds to the brain. In The Feeling of Life Itself, Koch outlines such a theory, based on integrated information. Koch describes how the theory explains many facts about the neurology of consciousness and how it has been used to build a clinically useful consciousness meter. The theory predicts that many, and perhaps all, animals experience the sights and sounds of life; consciousness is much more widespread than conventionally assumed. Contrary to received wisdom, however, Koch argues that programmable computers will not have consciousness. Even a perfect software model of the brain is not conscious. Its simulation is fake consciousness. Consciousness is not a special type of computation—it is not a clever hack. Consciousness is about being.

This highly unusual book began as a serious inquiry into Schrödinger's question, “What is life?”, and as a celebration of life itself. It takes the reader on a voyage of discovery through many areas of contemporary physics, from non-equilibrium thermodynamics and quantum optics to liquid crystals and fractals, all necessary for illuminating the problem of life. In the process, the reader is treated to a rare and exquisite view of the organism, gaining novel insights not only into the physics, but also into “the poetry and meaning of being alive.”This much-enlarged third edition includes new findings on the central role of biological water in organizing living processes; it also completes the author's novel theory of the organism and its applications in ecology, physiology and brain science.

"Journey By Starlight follows Albert Einstein and his traveling companion through space and time as they travel on a beam of light from a star 3,200 light-years away to Earth. Along the way, Einstein explains the science behind everything from the origins of the universe to the meaning of life, relativity, black holes, quantum mechanics, climate change, evolution vs. intelligent design, and how the brain works, all delivered in fun, easy-to-understand, bite-sized chunks. Based on the popular blog of the same name, Journey by Starlight has been given the graphic novel treatment, pairing the narrative with fantastic, whimsical artwork" -- from publisher's web site.

'Exceptionally interesting' - Alain de Botton 'Fascinating ... You'll never again view your own world in quite the same way. A delight to read' - Ian Stewart 'A book that will transform how you understand human behaviour' - Thomas Erikson Can physics change your life? It already has. In The Art of Physics, Zahaan Bharmal explains eight ideas from physics that have transformed his view of everyday life and will do the same for you. Far from being abstract, he argues, physics can help us answer very human questions, questions like: Why are some relationships unstable, while others last a lifetime? Why does inequality persist? And why do we all make so many irrational decisions? Drawing on quantum mechanics, thermodynamics, chaos and complexity theory, materials science and more, The Art of Physics reveals the hidden, surprising, and sometimes beautiful ways in which physics can help us to make sense of an unpredictable world. Ultimately, it shows how by embracing the paradoxes and uncertainty at the core of physics, we can unlock a deeper understanding of ourselves and our universe. A deeply personal and thoroughly entertaining tour of life, the universe, and everything.
