        Science of Illusion

        by Mohamed Yahia

        How were people forced to believe in the rotation of planets around the Sun? What if Newton's theory was a mathematical miracle and a physical disaster? Do you know anything about relativity and the texture of spacetime? How did the battle between relativity and quantum take place, and how did attempts to reconcile them take place? Do you consider INTERSTELLAR a pure fantasy? Do you see in the series DARK unreasonable oddities? What if these dramas were based on some theories of modern physics?! This book tells you the story of science from birth, the attempts to depart science from imaginary myths and superstitions in explaining phenomena and the mechanism of action of the universe, and how it ended up authorizing to nature facts stranger than the imagination from which it was fleeing! Time may stop, the past, the present and the future are all present, your outlook is what creates reality around you, gravity may be a means of communication between us and aliens, and you and I may be just a three-dimensional projection of a caricature story with only two dimensions! This is the tale of science, preceded by imagination, preceded by it.

        Science for Heretics

        Why so much of science is wrong

        by Barrie Condon

        WHY SO MUCH OF SCIENCE IS WRONG! Barrie Condon shows that science is broken Science is everywhere, our medicines, our transport, what we eat and drink. Like it or not, we can’t make real progress without it. There’s just one dilemma ... What if there are profound problems with all aspects of scien􀆟 fi c theory and methods? Could it be that the idea of universal laws underpinning reality is a falsehood and, as a result, we need more and more scien􀆟 sts, and more and more compu􀆟 ng power, to produce greater and greater elabora􀆟 ons of our theories to make them fi t inconvenient experimental data? For the fi rst 􀆟 me, we have a book that dares to summarise these profound concerns in a way that is accessible to the general reader, who lacks a scien􀆟 fi c background. It also provides a warning to Mankind of the risks we run by not acknowledging the, o􀅌 en, hollow founda􀆟 ons on which science is built.

        Life, the Great Story

        by Juan Luis Arsuaga

        Paleontology describes the history of life on earth  and chronicles evolutionary events in distinctly narrative terms. This book tells that story, covering over three thousand five hundred million years and going further still, seeking out explanations. Faced with any big historical fact, it’s perfectly natural to wonder whether it’s the result of an inexorable process, or whether things might have turned out quite differently or perhaps never even happened at all. Clearly, this line of reasoning can be applied to evolution too. Was life on Earth inevitable? Was it bound to result in an intelligent and technologically advanced species in the end? Was it just a matter of time (and a very long wait - more than three and a half thousand million years)? How much in our evolutionary history was pure chance and how much was inescapable? There are obvious philosophical implications to these questions. How would you react to the news that - as science fiction would have us believe - the universe is teeming with life and there are civilizations just like ours on countless other planets? How would you feel about finding out we’re not so special after all, certainly not the centre of the universe, but just one little corner tucked away among dozens of others? Alternatively, what if scientists concluded it’s virtually impossible for life to exist anywhere other than Earth (given that conditions are so exacting and the likelihood of them being realized is so infinitely remote)? What if they told you that once life had developed here (the only place it could), it was simply a matter of course that a human being would one day appear? If that turns out to be true, the human race once again takes centre stage, despite the fact that our planet revolves around a humble yellow star perched on the periphery of a galaxy that is just one of hundreds of billions of others in the visible universe.
