Quantum God

Philip Gardiner

This audiobook has been recorded using Text to speech (TTS).

Do you believe in God? If so, which one? Is it the Christian all-knowing, all-seeing father of Jesus? Is it Allah of Islam? The many deities of Hinduism? Or are you one of those that believes in God but not religion?

Whichever box you tick on the form, you have some kind of belief. Even if you're an atheist, you believe there is no God. That we all came from nothing. But there are massive questions that mankind has asked from the very beginning. Where did everything come from? Is there a meaning to our lives? Are we alone in the universe?

These questions and many more have fascinated mankind from the moment he could reason. And eventually we created a thing called science to discover the answers. To many, science eradicated the need for God to answer all the questions we could not answer. Delete faith and replace with scientific facts. The problem is that science has not yet answered all of the questions and many believe it never will. Or has it?

Today we are beginning to understand the complexities and even strangeness of the sub-atomic world. This new quantum realm is opening up new avenues of research and new inventions. All things are made of particles. The entire universe is formed from them. And now we are creating quantum computers that think at the quantum level. What answers will the union of artificial intelligence and this amazing quantum world bring? Will we now have the answers to the ultimate questions?

This is the story of the new scientific world of particle physics and the amazing unseen world it reveals.

The Little Book of Data -...

Justin Evans

Read by the author.  
Data is not about number crunching. It’s about ideas. And when used properly (read: ethically), it is the problem solver of our time. 
Yet many savvy people seem to be in data denial: they don’t think they need to understand data, or it’s too complicated, or worse, using it is somehow unethical. Yet as data and AI (just an accelerated way to put data to work) move to the center of professional and civic life, every professional and citizen needs to harness this power. 
In The Little Book of Data, each chapter illustrates one of the core principles of solving problems with data by featuring an expert who has solved a big problem with data—from the entrepreneur creating a “loneliness score” to the epidemiologist trying to save lives by finding disease “hotspots.” 
The stories are told in a fast-moving, vivid, sometimes comic style, and cover a wide frame of reference from adtech to climate tech, the bubonic plague, tiny submarines, genomics, railroads, bond ratings, and meat grading. (That’s right. Meat.) 
Along the way Evans injects lessons from his own career journey and offers practical thought-starters for readers to apply to their own organizations. 
By reading The Little Book of Data, you will achieve the fluency to apply your data superpowers to your own mission and challenges—and you will have fun along the way. 
You will be, in other words, a data person.
