In this book I explain what the universe is all about. I answer the really big questions, such as: Where did the universe come from? Who are we and what are we doing here? Is there a God? What is ultimate reality? I'll tell you that some of the answers are paradoxical. They change, depending on who is asking the question and how. I will show you how the paradoxes arise and why they're essential to the existence of our universe. Answering the big questions will take us into the realm of physics, since it isn't enough to say, "Yes, there's a God, and God created the universe." We need to know…mehr

In this book I explain what the universe is all about. I answer the really big questions, such as: Where did the universe come from? Who are we and what are we doing here? Is there a God? What is ultimate reality? I'll tell you that some of the answers are paradoxical. They change, depending on who is asking the question and how. I will show you how the paradoxes arise and why they're essential to the existence of our universe. Answering the big questions will take us into the realm of physics, since it isn't enough to say, "Yes, there's a God, and God created the universe." We need to know how God did it. I will present a model of the universe that shows exactly how the standard models of particle physics and cosmology come to be. The standard models are powerful, accurate theories that are well-verified by experiment. I'll show how they arise from ultimate reality. We'll also get into the realm of consciousness. I'll show you what consciousness is and how it's related to the physical world. It turns out that consciousness is more fundamental than the physical universe, but it's also a result of physical processes in the brain. It depends on who is looking at it and how.

Durante los siguientes 32 años estudió física y metafísica, y se mantuvo como editor del Hewlett-Packard Journal, ahora jubilado.
