Guiding us through the strange and fascinating workings of the subatomic realm to create a new model of human consciousness, the author addresses enduring philosophical questions. Does the new physics provide a basis by which our consciousness might continue beyond death? How does the material world (for instance, ugly inner cities) impinge upon our sense of self? Is there a subatomic wellspring from which our creativity, our empathy with others, and our feelings of unity with the inanimate world originate?\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eMost important, Zohar shows how the vitality of the new physics combats the alienation and fragmentation of twentieth-century life, and replaces it with a model of reality in which the universe itself may possess a type of consciousness, of which human consciousness is one expression.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eReview(s):\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eISBN:  9780688107369\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e ","brand":"William Morrow Paperbacks","offers":[{"title":"Paperback \/ softback","offer_id":41038772797646,"sku":"9780688107369","price":15.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0600\/7029\/7806\/products\/9780688107369_a597262d-a777-48f2-88b2-31a107852dfe.jpg?v=1652157223","url":"https:\/\/pickwickbookshop.com\/products\/9780688107369","provider":"Pickwick Bookshop","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
