Publisher's Synopsis
What does a 3,000-year-old best-seller have in
common with Quantum Mechanics, black holes,
Stephen Hawkins' theory of the universe and current
predictive analytics?
In a tour-de-force of ideas stitched together by
impeccable research Minds, Brains and Hearts shows
how what we think and what we feel are influenced by
what we know and what we think we know. A key element
in any effort of self-realization, self-knowledge begins by
achieving perspective in who we are and how we got here.
This is a book of big ideas tackled delicately and with
precision. In a breathtaking view of almost 3,000 years
of scientific and cultural history Amerland tackles deep
questions such as:
- Why are we here?
- What does our future hold?
- How do we deal with uncertainty?
- How did those who came before us view the world?
In the process you will find yourself questioning some
of your own assumptions regarding the world around
you and your place in it.
