  • On the Origin of Being: Understanding the Science of Evolution to Enhance Your Quality of Life

    by Jenny Powers, PhD

    Corporations are experimenting with AI. Humans are the test subjects.

    Researchers are divided even over what artificial intelligence is.
    Deeper things are taking root beneath: artificial bodies.

  • Conspiracy by Means of Natural Selection

    by Sherman P. Bastarache

    The main objective in writing this book is to establish a naturally selected means for which conspiring became established in human nature. What was the initial driving factor for natural selection to act on? If we do not understand how nature generated our minds, we will never understand why we form conspiracy theories, purposely moulded to our beliefs.

    Second to that prime query, I examine social culture as a means of learning about nature. Every ancient culture had its gods and godde... more

  • The Case for a Living Universe. Is there mind in all matter?

    by Matthew R. Benton

    We are composed of the same atoms as the rocks, soil, mountains and nothing more. They are apparently aware of nothing, whereas we are aware of the physical world, ourselves and much more besides. How is this possible? The current scientific view is that minds emerge from wholly unknowing matter. The idea that mind and matter are, in fact, one and the same has long been considered an elegant, although impractical answer to the question above. This book argues that we live in an intelligent, a... more
