Irrational mechanics: published!
Irrational mechanics: Narrative sketch of a futurist science & a new religion, by Giulio Prisco.
I published my new book, titled “Irrational mechanics: Narrative sketch of a futurist science & a new religion.”
I wish to thank the many early readers who have sent me feedback. Some early readers have read the draft carefully, cover to cover, and sent me very useful comments and suggestions.
The book is now live on Amazon.
Irrational mechanics is defined as a futurist science that will eventually open the door to faster than light travel, time travel, psychic engineering, God-like abilities, and the resurrection of the dead.
This is not a scientific theory of irrational mechanics, but a narrative sketch that tries to communicate the flavor of what a futurist science of irrational mechanics could be.
Irrational mechanics will eventually become the foundation of a new religion, one that is inspired by science instead of revelation, but is still able to offer all the comforts of traditional religion.
Yes, the universe is striving toward a purpose, and we are part of that purpose. Yes, the cosmic operating system has the attributes that traditional religions have assigned to their God(s). Yes, you’ll live again after death with your loved ones.
Chapter titles: 1 - Introduction; 2 - Astounding universe, amazing grace; 3 - Down and out in a block universe; 4 - Libertarian determinism (I); 5 - Incomplete interlude; 6 - Libertarian determinism (II); 7 - Creative evolution toward quality; 8 - The cosmic operating system; 9 - Zooming in and out (I); 10 - Spacetime oddities; 11 - Zooming in and out (II); 12 - Bats and bits; 13 - Cosmic engineers; 14 - So what happens after death?; 15 - Religion for Spaceship Earth.
For those who are unable to buy the book at this moment, there’s a free web version.
Of course immediately after publishing the book I found a couple of typos and formatting issues. But these are only very minor bugs, and I’m sure there must be others, so I decided to leave well enough alone. I am collecting needed changes in a document titled “Irrational mechanics: Errata.”
