Books that explain Quantum (meta)Physics

@dalniente,
true what you say, i think most people are looking for an avenue of pseudo-intellectualism for which to express an intrinsic curiosity. but education is always the answer!

@stlouis,
this book is pretty solid, i read it in highschool, physics isnt the area i am pursuing in my academic career currently but this book has the background as well as some somewhat modern ideas regardsing quantum physics without making you do math

but honestly, if you cant do math, you will never begin to understand the hard sciences like physics and chemistry.

also, just because it has a cool name like “Meta-physics” does not mean that its anymore interesting the capillary action! another cool physical phenomenon that carries over into chemistry!

I recently watched the video too and had some of the same questions. I am studying Physics in University and lately I’ve been really interested in this exact kind of stuff. Trying to connect spirituality and science. The sad truth seems to be our society doesn’t care about spirituality, and I get the feel that research into these areas has been low priority and only pursued by a few pioneers, many who have even been suppressed.

If you are looking for Book’s specifically about “Athene’s Theory” start by checking out Athene’s other popular videos on you tube, everything from naughty love tips and eating worms, to video games, lots of videogames. Athene claims to have compiled the research of a few scientists experiments, therefore it’s his interpretation of research which isn’t even his, If you want to look into those, well I would hope he references them.

If you are looking for Book’s about quantum physics, the textbook I use that had a really good intro to modern physics was Physics for Scientists and Engineers by Serway & Jesuit which you can just get off the pirate bay, but there’s countless textbooks. You’ll have to understand though that just reading the material you’ll only get an idea. People devote their lives to this stuff and are still confused.

If you want books about spirituality well I would start here http://www.youtube.com/user/thespiritscience and you will be lead to a lot of different radical ideas, but lots of great resources that would normally be overlooked.

@dalniente,

the quote about people bullshitting referring to anything with the word “quantum” is pretty true.

i like bringing it up in regards to spirituality on these grounds though:

1. the standard model of physics and science as we know it explain everything…except the biggest questions. especially consciousness. what more important subject to fully understand than consciousness? in my opinion.
2. quantum physics showing that observation can affect the observed, and this to me has a connection to the idea that life is just consciousness experiencing itself. also how two electrons a wide distance apart react to each other instantly. i intuitively feel that this has a deep connection to spirituality, whether it be “oneness” or “collective unconscious” etc im not sure. but i just know.

ya know?

@dalniente,

those links look great, thanks!
you’re right. it doesn’t magically answer it as QM is very young and not understood fully yet.

lol you misquoted me. i meant, i am not sure which of the following it is connected to: oneness, collective unconscious, etc. but i have an intuitive feeling that quantum mechanics definitely shows potential to explain spiritual phenomena.

@dalniente,

you can never be sure in writing hahaha
