What Are We Doing Here?: A Radical New Theory of Life in a Holographic Universe (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9798246045619)

What Are We Doing Here?

Other writers have asked that question and offered you their speculative answers. However, I will respond with science and logic, physics and not metaphysics - and in the end, the answer to that question might surprise you.

But where is "here"? The idea of a holographic universe has been discussed seriously by physicists for decades, usually in highly technical terms that place it well beyond everyday conversation. This book takes a different approach. Rather than asking whether the holographic universe is true in a strict scientific sense, it asks a more accessible question: what if it were true?

What would such a universe imply about meaning, suffering, morality, judgment, and our daily lives?

Each chapter builds on the previous one, moving gradually from physics to philosophy, and finally to lived experience. Along the way, I will deliberately cross disciplinary boundaries. I will also be explicit about when I do so. Physics alone cannot answer many of the questions that naturally arise, and I make no claim that it does.

This short non-fiction work is written for thoughtful, curious readers who are willing to sit with uncertainty rather than rush toward conclusions. You do not need to accept the holographic model to engage with what follows. You only need to be willing to consider the possibility and to explore its implications honestly.
