  "This is a delightful account of one of the deepest and most fascinating explorations going on today at the frontier of our knowledge." —Carlo Rovelli, bestselling author of The Order of Time and Seven Brief Lessons on PhysicsA revelatory exploration of how a "theory of everything" depends upon our understanding of the human mindThe whole goal of physics is to explain what we observe. For centuries, physicists believed that observations yielded faithful representations of what is out there. But when they began to study the subatomic realm, they found that observation often interferes with what is being observed—that the act of seeing changes what we see. The same is true of cosmology: our view of the universe is inevitably distorted by observation bias. And so whether they’re studying subatomic particles or galaxies, physicists must first explain consciousness—and for that they must turn to neuroscientists and philosophers of mind.Neuroscientists have painstakingly built up an understanding of the structure of the brain. Could this help physicists understand the levels of self-organization they observe in other systems? These same physicists, meanwhile, are trying to explain how particles organize themselves into the objects around us. Could their discoveries help explain how neurons produce our conscious experience?Exploring these questions and more, George Musser tackles the extraordinary interconnections between quantum mechanics, cosmology, human consciousness, and artificial intelligence. Combining vivid descriptions with portraits of scientists working on the cutting edge, Putting Ourselves Back in the Equation shows how theories of everything depend on theories of mind—and how they might be one and the same.A Macmillan Audio production from Farrar, Straus and Giroux.

  Owning the Sun - A People's...

  Owning the Sun tells the story of one of the most contentious fights in human history: the legal right to control the production of lifesaving medicines. Medical science began as a discipline geared toward the betterment of all human life, but the merging of research with intellectual property and the rise of the pharmaceutical industry warped and eventually undermined its ethical foundations. Why does the US government fund the development of medical science in the name of the public, only to relinquish exclusive rights to drug companies, and how does such a system impoverish us, weaken our responses to global crises, and, as in the case of AIDS and COVID-19, put the world at risk? 
   
   
    
  Outlining how generations of public health and science advocates have attempted to hold the line against Big Pharma and their allies in government, Alexander Zaitchik's first-in-kind history documents the rise of medical monopoly in the United States and its subsequent globalization. From the controversial arrival of patent-wielding German drug firms in the late nineteenth century, to present-day coordination between industry and philanthropic organizations—including the influential Gates Foundation—that stymie international efforts to vaccinate the world against COVID-19, Owning the Sun tells one of the most important and least understood histories of our time.

  Eating is one of the quickest ways to comfort ourselves, but many comfort foods are low in nutrients and leave us wanting more. 
  Certain foods leave you wanting more, such as doughnuts, because they are high in calories, but contain hardly any nutrients. Instead, choose foods that are rich sources of nutrients without being high in fat or calories. 
  Fruits, vegetables, beans, legumes, herbs, spices, whole grains, nuts, seeds, lean meat, fish, eggs, tofu and pulses, olive oil, olives and avocadosTo support good health and immunity, you should aim to eat at least 30 different plant foods a week along with repeated use of your favourite guided hypnosis session.

  What if everything you thought you knew about reality… was incomplete? 
  How can a particle be in two places at once? Why does simply observing something change its behavior? And how can two objects be “connected” across vast distances with no visible link? 
  This audiobook breaks down the mind-bending logic of quantum mechanics into something even complete beginners can follow — without dumbing it down. With engaging, bite-sized chapters, it brings you inside the bizarre but beautiful logic that shapes the tiniest parts of our universe… and influences far more than you might think. 
  You’ll finally understand concepts like entanglement, the photoelectric effect, and quantum uncertainty — but more importantly, you’ll discover how these ideas connect to technology, philosophy, and even the human body. 
  You’ll learn:Why the double-slit experiment is the weirdest and most important experiment in physicsHow observation can change reality, and what that really meansWhat Einstein got right — and wrong — about quantum mechanicsWhy energy is quantized, and what that means for atoms and lightHow mathematics became physics’ secret weaponWhat perturbation theory is, and how it helps predict the unpredictableThe surprising role of conservation laws and symmetriesWhat quantum physics tells us about the nature of time and causalityHow technology like lasers, transistors, and MRI depends on quantum principlesWhat modern science says about the human body as a quantum system 
  Forget lifeless textbooks. This is science with all the wonder left in.Start listening — and discover the quantum side of reality you were never taught in school.
