Rules for Eternity (eBook, ePUB)

Beschreibung

What are the fundamental laws of existence? Do they shape the universe before creation, or do they unfold as life evolves? Is intelligent life a cosmic inevitability or a fleeting accident? And most importantly-what are our true limits as conscious beings?

In Rules for Eternity, John Hunter embarks on a thought-provoking exploration of the biggest scientific and philosophical questions of our time. This book bridges the gap between science and the unknown, merging cosmology, evolution, human psychology, and the role of belief systems to uncover the hidden rules that govern our reality.

A Journey Through Science, Philosophy & the Human Mind

• The Universe's Blueprint - What cosmic principles shape existence?
• The Origins of Life & Intelligence - Is there a pattern to how life emerges?
• Free Will vs. Determinism - Are we bound by universal laws, or do we have agency?

• The Fate of Intelligent Civilizations - Are we destined for eternity, or are we doomed?

Hunter delivers a compelling, accessible, and deeply insightful discussion that will challenge your perceptions of reality.

Autor

John was raised in country Victoria, Australia, where an uncluttered lifestyle provided ample opportunity for hands-on exposure to the wonders of nature. At the University of Melbourne he took out an honours degree in Science, thus qualifying as a Particle Physicist. Although he was well-qualified and enthusiastic, it soon became apparent that nuclear-phobic Australia offered quite limited career prospects in that field. He then completed a second degree in Electrical Engineering.

For several years John worked with Schlumberger as an oil engineer, before retiring to coastal Queensland where he established a small electronics business. It was not commonly known, but this business was purely a front to facilitate his desire to invent things. His proudest achievement was possibly the Computaphon, the world¿s first electronic phone.

None of John¿s inventions was ever commercialised as he expressed little interest beyond building prototypes and proof-of-concept. He later gravitated to software development, a pursuit which continues to this day. However, none of these ¿day jobs¿ managed to overshadow his fundamental love - Cosmology.
