Описание: Kept hidden by the United States government for decades, the Site is a place where magic is real. But that doesnt mean that everything happening there is sparkly. Soul-sucking policies and layers of stifling bureaucracy threaten to take all the fun out of magic. Harris, a newbie Conjurer, starts his first day of work at the Site bursting with excitement: hes been brought on for an extremely big project happening the very next day. In a triumph over its habitual inefficiency, the Site manages to carry out its plan and conjure an actual dragon to be used by the military. The dragon (Zoth-Avarex, the self-proclaimed greatest dragon in the multiverse) immediately eats the person next to him, snatches a "princess" from the ranks of the Conjuring Department, and flies away to the Space Needle. There he manipulates the media, outwits the Sites bumbling management, demands sixty-three billion dollars worth of treasure (because Smaug was said to have had sixty-two billion in his hoard), threatens to destroy the city-and installs a couple of food trucks. The "princess" is the twin sister of Harriss crush Ana, and the fiancee of his new friend Jake. Harris, Ana, and Jake team up with a rule-breaking magician on a quest to send the smart-ass, narcissistic dragon back from whence he came. Theyll need to travel to storied realms in order to find the magical items needed to defeat the dragon. As they quest through red tape and various familiar fantasy elements, Harris will need to somehow make his timidity, inexperience, and idealism work for him. Meanwhile, tension rises as the "princess" has escape plans of her own, and the Site management sends an alternate hero off in a rowboat to visit a surfing Merlin-a mission that ends up a lot more perilous than anyone had anticipated. While this book skewers the same fantasy genre it gleefully inhabits, it also pokes fun at corporate culture, todays obsession with wealth and celebrity, and our denial that life is anything more than meets the eye. Hapless Harris, believing in magic all along, learns to apply what hes picked up between the pages of fantasy literature.

Описание: How did life start? How did something capable of replicating itself emerge from the primordial soup? How did it defy the odds? And how did it carry on seeking out the very mutations that enable survival? Living organisms are controlled by a single molecule - DNA. Yet the study of physics tells us that the behaviour of single molecules is also controlled by the laws of quantum mechanics. The implications of this for biology have not been fully thought through. Until now. In this debut, Johnjoe McFadden puts forward a theory of quantum evolution. He shows how living organisms have the ability to will themselves into action. Indeed, such an ability may be life's most fundamental attribute. This has radical implications. Evolution may not be random at all, as recent evolutionary theories have taught: rather, cells may, in certain circumstances, be able to choose to mutate particular genes that provide an advantage in the environment in which the cell finds itself.

Описание:
Emergence of the Omniverse (2020) is one important tool of liberation from our presumed status as a prison planet for Souls in an enforced, unconscious reincarnation birth-death cycle that cosmologist Wes Penre and Futurist Webre document, providing us with powerful strategies to exit the false Afterlife/Interlife Reincarnation Matrix into the larger Omniverse. The Omniverse Equation is: Omniverse = Multiverse + Spiritual Dimensions Intelligent Civilizations of Souls ] Spiritual Beings + Source (God)] Alfred Lambremont Webre's book Exopolitics founded the science of relations among civilizations in the multiverse. Webre's ground-breaking initial book on the Omniverse integrated empirical data from intelligent civilizations in the multiverse and from the intelligent civilization of souls in the Interlife, demonstrating a functioning ecology of intelligence in the dimensions of the Omniverse. Futurist Alfred Lambremont Webre's principal social contributions have been (1) founding the science of Exopolitics through his 2000 book Exopolitics, (2) the 2014 discovery of the Omniverse as the 3rd major cosmological body after the Universe and the Multiverse] through which humanity understands the cosmos, and (3) the development of the Positive Future Equation that describes Soul development in our Universe & Omniverse.

Описание:
Is life meaningful? How would the universe have to be made to persuade us toward our purpose? Is there any evidence that we live in such a universe?
Modern science has taught us that the fundamental workings of the universe often run counter to our intuitions: time does not flow, it is frozen in a continuum with space; a single particle of matter can create a wave-like interference pattern; and our perception does not reveal reality but instead increases our fitness to survive. Meaning in the Multiverse: A Skeptic's Guide to a Loving Cosmos shows the flaws in our intuitions on universal meaning and our place in the universe.
Utilizing metaphysics and cosmology, author and scientist Justin Harnish tackles the interrelatedness of meaning and existence, explores our ability to create virtual consciousness, uncovers our recruitment as a deep-learning program for the universe, and illuminates the optimization routine running on a massively parallel quantum computer. If we are going to ask the question, "what is the meaning of it all" anyway... it is best to leverage the latest science of existence and the latest interrogations of experience.
Similar to how Brian Greene's The Hidden Reality stood at the vanguard of physics and described ten different theoretical multiverses, Meaning in the Multiverse speculates on universal meaning in an existence fundamentally made of matter, information, and computation. Books as different as What We Talk About When We Talk About God by Rob Bell, Sean Carrol's The Big Picture, and Waking Up by Sam Harris are the supernatural, poetic, and personal arguments, respectively, against an all-natural, universal meaning.
Meaning in the Multiverse: A Skeptic's Guide to a Loving Cosmos is the first book to speculate that meaning is transmitted to us through an all-natural, computational multiverse.The multiverse is persuading us to live an examined life, one more aligned to our shared meaning.
* To be mindful in our experiences.
* To flow with existence especially in pursuits that further science, society, or culture.
Man's search for meaning has been using a water witching rod when tools like the Hubble Space Telescope are available. Meaning in the Multiverse: A Skeptic's Guide to a Loving Cosmos, will take off the lens cap and stare into the true source of human meaning-the dynamic multiverse.
Описание: In contrast to buildings divided by walls, monospace buildings are determined far less by its shell than by a reciprocal relationship between space and practices, objects, materials, and human bodies. Using the example of such one-room-architectures, this book explores the potential of an actor-network-theory (ANT) approach to space in the field of architecture. Sabine Hansmann focuses on the Sainsbury Centre for Visual Arts in Norwich, England by Foster Associates (1978) to investigate the mutual entanglement of people, objects and building. She traces the work that is necessary in "doing" space and thus suggests a re-conceptualisation of space in architectural theory.
Описание: Lightning Origins is the first book in The Lightning Saga. Taking place in the the year is 2238, humanity is now bringing an end to a 50 year long interplanetary war against extremist rebels on the frontier colonies. Due to the length of this war, Earth Government had poured all of it's resources into ending it as soon as possible in order to continue humanities expansion into space. However, now that the war is coming to an end, their isn't much initiative left in exploration until one day a mysterious man named Gehnarne radically introduces himself to the leaders of earth government, the council of seven, and reveals to them new ways to not only continue the exploration of their own universe, but how to venture into other universes as well through universal rifts. With the councils approval, he creates a para military force tasked to not only seek and destroy rebel remnants that mite have escaped the battle fields of the colonies, but to also launch an expedition beyond the border of the unreached worlds and explore other universes as they find new rifts. Before this new effort in humanities expansion can begin, Gehnarne recruits scientists, technicians, and soldiers from the previous war like Raymond Gunslinger Reynolds, an elite soldier with a dark past who is entrusted with a new dynamic combat weapon called The Flow System enhancing his gun and sword fight ability's, and his friends from United Special Operations Division. Armed with new weapons and technology, Raymond, his team and other personnel to be recruited along the way must learn to become explorers, and peacekeepers as they face a deadly new threat hiding in the shadows of conspiracy. This fast pace action packed science fiction techno thriller is the beginning of Strategic Multiverse Operations and how they earned the name Lightning. This Definitive Edition of Lightning Origins is now in a smaller form factor book template, has a more professionally designed interior, and Lightning Archival Records Excerpts positioned in key locations through out the book giving more insight into the Lightning Multiverse. This is the Definitive Experience of Lightning Origins
