Physical Truth (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9780981209623)

Why in the world would anyone need a philosophy? And a new one at that? What's the problem with the old one? Philosophy is ancient. Somewhere around 1920 or something. So what makes anyone think we need a new philosophy? How can a philosophy save us? And what's even more important, what does philosophy have to do with the price of a decent cheeseburger?

The premise is rather simple: Truth exists. Objective reality exists. On both sides of an extremely divided world, truth itself is deemed either irrelevant or non-existent. There is a global battle over the belief systems of humanity. Stop for a second and consider: Has Russell's Paradox been resolved? Has this resolution been taught to children? Has humanity taken the wrong path? Have we made some very bad decisions a while back and we cannot find out where or how we did that? And what is the solution?

We have some answers in the book Physical Truth - A Mathematical Philosophy. And rather than appeal to your emotions or political persuasion, we rely on the math. And you will not run away because of the math. You will go through it. You will understand it. You will appreciate it. You will not only resolve Russell's Paradox, you will understand Sartre and why he is so important. You will be able to solve Schrodinger's equation and be able to derive the Einstein field equations. You will know and understand the structure of galaxies and embrace an infinite and eternal universe. You will know why the world is the way it is and you will be empowered to change it. Have courage.
