This book is neither fact nor fiction. It's something in the middle. It's about the universe and time and is a book for ordinary inquisitive people to read. Curious people who feel disconnected from much of the complex and jargon-heavy logic about the universe and time that comes from scientific or religious quarters. But the contents of this book might interest a broad segment of scientists causing them to raise their voices, hands and arms in agreement or most probably disagreement. Words like rubbish, stupid, and it's a naïve falsification may be uttered. So be it. This book is readable for…mehr

Produktbeschreibung
This book is neither fact nor fiction. It's something in the middle. It's about the universe and time and is a book for ordinary inquisitive people to read. Curious people who feel disconnected from much of the complex and jargon-heavy logic about the universe and time that comes from scientific or religious quarters. But the contents of this book might interest a broad segment of scientists causing them to raise their voices, hands and arms in agreement or most probably disagreement. Words like rubbish, stupid, and it's a naïve falsification may be uttered. So be it. This book is readable for the uninformed because most of it is in plain text and pictures with some elementary mathematics sprinkled here and there. Various simple questions are posed as to why our universe exists and how it happened. That happening was what the book terms a grey swan moment. Time will not tell if that moment was even a moment because time is an earthly fabrication of our imagination and is not real. Read this book and gain a fresh perspective on what has, is and might happen.
Autorenporträt
Maurice Perks is a retired IBM fellow who spent 50 years working on the challenges of large, complex IT systems. He still calls modern IT systems 'computer systems.' Our universe is, for him, the biggest computer system of them all. He passionately believes in engineering and in that our universe is properly engineered, and this is continuing but, we may be interfering with the designated program through our fixation with the concept of time and AI now. In this book, he considers how scientists, religious persons and philosophers consider the effects that our universal evolutionary program brings as it executes.
