Young has not only laid the basis for a cosmology which accounts for freedom, action and control in the formulations of physics, but, while developing this remarkable body of work, has pointed out that science is disconnected from reality. Though it purports to deal with a real world, science is actually limited to an ideal one. In these two essays, on the limits of mathematics and the absence of the third derivative in theoretical physics, Young confronts this limitation.
When psychologist Scott Barry Kaufman discovered Abraham Maslow’s unfinished theory of transcendence, sprinkled throughout a cache of unpublished journals, he knew it contained fresh insights for living in today’s chaotic world. In this groundbreaking book, Kaufman picks up where Maslow left off, building a new level at the peak of the famous hierarchy of needs pyramid—and integrating the latest research on attachment, connection, creativity, purpose, and other building blocks of a life well-lived.
Benedict Spinoza was a 17th century philosopher and spiritual psychotherapist. This intellectual self-help book provides important insights from Spinoza’s system of thought in a format accessible to the general reader, as well as to those already familiar with his philosophy. By applying his method to our personal lives, we may free ourselves from bondage to our lower emotions and habitual behaviors and thus begin to enjoy the “continuous, supreme, and unending happiness” promised by Spinoza.
Conversations with Ghosts was an idea for a book for Dr. Tanous, outlining various investigations of ghostly phenomena while working with the American Society for Psychical Research. The existing short manuscript – of no more than a couple of chapters – was archived by the Alex Tanous Foundation for Scientific Research, and left incomplete. Now, the book has finally been completed by Callum Cooper, using additional notes and writings of Dr. Tanous, and interviews that were conducted with him on his thoughts and theories into ghosts and conscious survival beyond death.
