    Man In My Head Has Lost His Mind...

    The howl of the bedside clock-radio carves through your dreams like a buzz-saw through butter, and you are awake. In another place. 
Never mind the bright yellow sunlight that flecks your pillow and warms your face; you are rudely awake, and resent it. Gah! 
You roll onto your side, cantilever your legs over the side of the bed and plant your feet squarely on the carpet. You rub your face. Massage your neck. Oh, what it is to be alive!--and conscious--oh oh oh, indeed. 
But what is it to be alive, and conscious? 
Alive, we have some inkling of; you eat, you sleep, you exercise. You stay healthy and keep your body going as best you can. But conscious? What even is that? 
A good question is what that is, and a question for which this book has an answer. 
So in this text, first I set the scene:Did our consciousness evolve?Does consciousness give us free will?Which animals do we think are conscious?Where does consciousness go when we sleep?How does consciousness deliver meaning?What might a theory of consciousness look like? 
Then I propose:A model for consciousness at the macro scaleA mechanism for consciousness at the micro scale 
Finally, I suggest some real world tests that science will one day be able to perform which will either corroborate or invalidate the theory I present here. This is a workable, testable theory. Science and philosophy demand nothing less. 
A must-listen for the curious-minded, which you are, are you not? So listen on...

    The Fibonacci sequence is a great way by which the different patterns can be noticed and understood. The Fibonacci sequence is used by a number of mathematicians, philosophers, architects, etc. The Fibonacci sequence was also used for the creation of some great buildings. 
The Fibonacci sequence is an amazing technique and probably the only one technique, which is present in a number of domains such as mathematics, art, architecture, etc. The Golden Ratio is directly related to nature, which makes it even more interesting and easy going. 
It has not only appeared in the man-made things but it is also involved in a number of natural things. This came as a surprise to everyone, who is involved in the development of the mankind, educational and academic regions. The Fibonacci sequence is an ancient technique which is still famous and used in a variety of forms. The spiral of the Fibonacci, the sequence and the numbers play a great role in the studies of different arenas.

    Every day your body must solve hundreds of hard engineering problems simultaneously, or else you’ll die. Your body enables you to see and hear. It heals you from injuries and diseases. It maintains your temperature. It makes it possible for you to wield a sledgehammer during the day and play piano sonatas at night. Every minute your body choreographs a host of complex systems that are required for you to live. 
Join engineer Steve Laufmann and physician Howard Glicksman as they take you on an incredible journey exploring some of your body’s greatest marvels, including how your hearing and vision work, how you coordinate your movements, and — perhaps the greatest miracle of them all — how you developed from a single cell at conception. Along the way, you will discover compelling evidence that our bodies are the handiwork of a master designer and engineer.
