商品描述

This open access book chronicles the rise of a new scientific paradigm offering novel insights into the age-old enigmas of existence. Over 300 years ago, the human mind discovered the machine code of reality: mathematics. By utilizing abstract thought systems, humans began to decode the workings of the cosmos. From this understanding, the current scientific paradigm emerged, ultimately discovering the gift of technology. Today, however, our island of knowledge is surrounded by ever longer shores of ignorance. Science appears to have hit a dead end when confronted with the nature of reality and consciousness. In this fascinating and accessible volume, James Glattfelder explores a radical paradigm shift uncovering the ontology of reality. It is found to be information-theoretic and participatory, yielding a computational and programmable universe.

商品描述(中文翻譯)

這本開放存取的書籍記錄了一個新科學範式的興起,提供了對於古老存在之謎的新見解。三百多年前,人類的思維發現了現實的機器碼:數學。透過利用抽象思維系統,人類開始解碼宇宙的運作。基於這種理解,當前的科學範式隨之出現,最終發現了科技的禮物。然而,今天,我們的知識之島卻被越來越長的無知海岸所包圍。當面對現實和意識的本質時,科學似乎已經陷入了死胡同。在這本引人入勝且易於理解的著作中,詹姆斯·格拉特費爾(James Glattfelder)探討了一個激進的範式轉變,揭示了現實的本體論。這被發現是信息理論的和參與性的,產生了一個可計算和可編程的宇宙。
