    Albert Einstein and Erwin Schrödinger were friends and comrades-in-arms against what they considered the most preposterous aspects of quantum physics: its indeterminacy. Einstein famously quipped that God does not play dice with the universe, and Schrödinger is equally well known for his thought experiment about the cat in the box who ends up "spread out" in a probabilistic state, neither wholly alive nor wholly dead. Both of these famous images arose from these two men's dissatisfaction with quantum weirdness and with their assertion that underneath it all, there must be some essentially deterministic world. Even though it was Einstein's own theories that made quantum mechanics possible, both he and Schrödinger could not bear the idea that the universe was, at its most fundamental level, random. As the Second World War raged, both men struggled to produce a theory that would describe in full the universe's ultimate design, first as collaborators, then as competitors. They both ultimately failed in their search for a grand unified theory - not only because quantum mechanics is true but because Einstein and Schrödinger were also missing a key component: of the four forces we recognize today (gravity, electromagnetism, the weak force, and the strong force), only gravity and electromagnetism were known at the time. Despite their failures, much of modern physics remains focused on the search for a grand unified theory. As Halpern explains, the recent discovery of the Higgs boson makes the standard model - the closest thing we have to a unified theory - nearly complete. And while Einstein and Schrödinger tried and failed to explain everything in the cosmos through pure geometry, the development of string theory has, in its own quantum way, brought this idea back into vogue. As in so many things, even when he was wrong, Einstein couldn't help but be right. ungekürzt. Language: English. Narrator: Sean Runnette.

    In the Talmud, the subtle relationship between the individual reflective mind (man) and the universal consciousness (God), as reflected in the dialogue between Abraham and God, went something like this: God says to Abraham: “If it weren’t for Me, you wouldn't exist.” Abraham thoughtfully replies, “Yes, that’s very true Lord. I thank you for that. But, if it weren’t for me, nobody would know about you.”Both together are necessary for one another. The story of existence itself does not exist without both participants. The innermost secret of life is that simple, an intimate relationship between the Creator and the created. Man knows what God knows. It is man’s collective responsibility to learn and share. God’s Knowledge and man’s knowledge is entangled. Therein lies the explanation to the one theory that explains everything. What entangled means, in this concept, is that they are one and the same. Since we as human beings are constrained by time and space and even though according to the principle of entanglement, we ought to know what God knows, so is our knowledge constrained by time and space. This means that we know it, but not yet. We feel proud with the knowledge of Einstein’s theory of relativity. After all, we are of the few that understand it. ungekürzt. Language: English.

    The Bible tells of a spiritual realm where heaven, angels, and God reside. Where is this mysteriously invisible realm? Science has opened the door to the possibility of higher spatial dimensions. Could this be where heaven is? Using God’s word, this book will present evidence for the reality of the spiritual realm and also lay out the scientific evidence, from Einstein’s theory of relativity to string theory, that points to the possibility of a higher dimension or dimensions. Through this book, the everyday Christian will learn how to view the spiritual dimension or spiritual realm in a deeper way and will see clearly that there is much more to our universe than meets the eye. The seeking skeptic will also be presented with evidence that God is real and the Bible is his communication to man. The foundation is laid from the Bible, from science and from understanding that we are three-dimensional beings created by a Grand Programmer to live in the physical and spiritual universe. Because of sin, mankind lost the ability to see the spiritual realm, but through Jesus Christ and the Holy Spirit, we can once again access the spiritual realm and live fully as God our creator intends. ungekürzt.

    “I do not know with what weapons World War III will be fought, but World War IV will be fought with sticks and stones!” Einstein the scientist revolutionized our ideas of space and time thanks to his theory of relativity. A century after his extraordinary discoveries, it is still hard to believe how a young scholar was able to find out one of the most important laws that regulate the universe. The theory of relativity was revolutionary at the time of its discovery, and still today we want to understand it.How did his mind work? How much did his own intuition and logic influence his way of thinking? What made him a true genius?This volume will allow you to dive deep into the mind of Albert Einstein. Here you will find a collection of speeches, articles, and letters from the famous scientist that reflect his scientific and philosophical ethics and his political ideas, too. This audiobook will show you all different sides of Einstein’s personality and how hard he fought against the use of the atomic bomb.“There are only two ways to live your life. One is as though nothing is a miracle. The other is as though everything is a miracle.”  Enjoy, dear listeners. ungekürzt. Language: English. Narrator: Daniel Perez.

    Kurt Gödel (1906–1978) was born in Austria-Hungary (now the Czech Republic) and grew up in an ethnic German family. As a student, he excelled in languages and mathematics, mastering university-level math while still in high school. He received his doctorate from the University of Vienna at the age of 24 and, a year later, published the pioneering theorems on which his fame rests. In 1939, with the rise of Nazism, Gödel and his wife settled in the US, where he continued his groundbreaking work at the Institute for Advanced Study (IAS) in Princeton and became a close friend of Albert Einstein’s. In Simply Gödel, Richard Tieszen traces Gödel’s life and career, from his early years in tumultuous, culturally rich Vienna to his many brilliant achievements as a member of IAS, as well as his repeated battles with mental illness. In discussing Gödel’s ideas, Tieszen not only provides an accessible explanation of the incompleteness theorems, but explores some of his lesser known writings, including his thoughts on time travel and his proof of the existence of God. With clarity and sympathy, Simply Gödel brings to life Gödel’s fascinating personal and intellectual journey and conveys the lasting impact of his work on our modern world. ungekürzt.

    Bertrand Russell was a man of many parts: mathematician, philosopher, educator, popular writer, and political activist. It is surprising, and not a tad ironic (given his legal battles with higher education), that he eventually won the Nobel Prize for Literature in 1950. He was a prolific writer, but his most concentrated work was done in his earlier years on mathematics in collaboration with Alfred North Whitehead. They produced a three-volume work entitled Principia Mathematica in 1910, 1912, and 1913 respectively. It was “an attempt to describe a set of axioms and inference rules in symbolic logic from which all mathematical truths could in principle be proven.” Despite the fact that 20 years later Kurt Gödel's incompleteness theorem proved that Russell and Whitehead’s goal couldn’t be achieved, Principia Mathematica remains a seminal work of groundbreaking proportions. Russell would later admit that his intense research and writing for the project exhausted him so completely that he could never really pursue serious work on mathematics again. Yet, despite this, Russell continued writing on a host of subjects, ranging from Einstein’s theory of relativity to Wittgenstein’s work on logic. The following is one of Russell’s more famous essays on the importance of science in education and why it should be more emphasized in school and not disdained.  ungekürzt. Language: English.

    For a man who would be known the world over for his genius, Albert Einstein had a rather unimpressive childhood. It would not be until his mid-20s that his insight into nature and its connection with mathematics became apparent. Working as a Swiss patent clerk, he would squirrel away his research papers in his desk and work on them when no one was looking. During his “miracle year” of 1905, Einstein would produce four papers that would revolutionize theoretical physics. One of the masterworks would later earn him a Nobel Prize and another paper covering his Special Theory of Relativity would upset the foundations of physics set forth by Sir Isaac Newton.Though Einstein’s professional career lead to world renown, his personal like was often in shambles - a failed marriage, estrangement from his children, and his time wandering as a refugee. After the rise of the Nazi party in Germany, his Jewish ancestry forced him to flee to the United States with his second wife to find a new homeland. Einstein finished his brilliant career at the Institute for Advanced Study in Princeton, New Jersey, working on his “theory of everything” or a unified field theory - with no success.This compact biography surveys in concise terms the life and times of this towering figure. By the end of this short audiobook, you will not only understand how the genius of Albert Einstein shaped our past, but how it continues to subtly influence the world in which we all live. ungekürzt.
