Title: The Fabric of Reality Pdf The Science of Parallel Universes - and Its Implications
Author of the New York Times best seller The Beginning of Infinity, David Deutsch, explores the four most fundamental strands of human knowledge: quantum physics, and the theories of knowledge, computation, and evolution - and their unexpected connections. Taken together, these four strands reveal a deeply integrated, rational, and optimistic worldview. It describes a unified fabric of reality that is objective and comprehensible, in which human action and thought are central.
With new preface exclusive to the audiobook, read by the author.
Bake a cake from scratch I see this book as the ultimate guide to cake baking. It is the very thing the title suggests ~The FABRIC of Reality~. As a famous saying goes, "To bake a cake from scratch first you create the universe" This book identifies the absolute basic ideas that define our understanding of what our senses tell us. Regardless of what you think of his theory of the multiverse or even his views on quantum physics you must admire the way he challenges us to look at the things we believe in their most basic form. He says if you kick a stone and you feel it hurt your foot then you must assume it is real. All our lifetime beliefs must stem from this simple observation. To me DD has opened up my eyes to see the world and after reading this book my mind was forced to make adjustments in the way I come to accept things as fact. He goes to the very heart of what not only what the fabric of the universe is but during the explaination forced me to see what the fabric of my own surroudings is and how I should decide what to believe in.I must highly recommend this book as required reading to anyone who has ever decided to belive in something just because someone else said it was true (hint - religous writings) without offering the rock kicking experiment to prove it.Such a great author Written through the eyes of wonder and amazementVery good book, read full review for my nitpicks. Overall 5 stars, extremely interesting and good read. I also find the main thesis fairly convincing but that doesn't figure into the rating much in this case, for me. There are a few points that I feel were not material to the main point of the book and which were also poorly argued, and if I were editing the book I'd simply remove them-- Deutsch's seeming insistence on some kind of libertarian free will (I think he even says explicitly "you could have done otherwise") as a consequence of Many Worlds, a somewhat frantic argument at the end of the book where he attacks a strawman of evolutionary psychology trying to make a genealogical case against moral realism, and the chapter on time travel.
