********** BACK COVER TEXT ********** 1: The Ultimate Foundation of Nature may very well be the most important conceptual breakthrough in the prediction, validation, and unification of physics. It provides solutions to challenges posed by the greatest minds of all time. Eugene Wigner of Princeton University, 1963 Nobel laureate in physics, stated, The full meaning of life, the collective meaning of all human desires, is fundamentally a mystery beyond our grasp . . . We have no right to expect that our intellect can formulate perfect concepts for the full understanding of inanimate natures phenomena. Max Planck from the University of Berlin, 1918 Nobel laureate in physics, declared, Science cannot solve the ultimate mystery of nature. And it is because in the last analysis we ourselves are part of the mystery we are trying to solve. In 1: The Ultimate Foundation of Nature, we suggest that you have in your hands the solution for the ultimate mystery of nature that has no explanations in terms of deeper principles. It is based on the laws of physics, the unchanging frame of reference, the 1, predicting, validating, and unifying different laws and theories in a seamless, all-embracing theory of everything. Some Earlier Reviews on Books by Orest Bedrij By integrating spiritual validations with scientific evidence, placing one upon the other in verification after verification, Orest Bedrij arrives at an amalgam of the one single fundamental concept: 1 . . . a holy vision of you, the nature of God, and the theory of everything. Dr. Tibor Horvath, SJ, Professor Emeritus, University of Toronto; Founder/General Editor, Ultimate Reality and Meaning This book is an important stepping-stone to a quantum jump in evolution, a world of oneness, which is in the making under our very eyes. May this book inspire leaders to catch up with the sages of our times, who are revealing to us the fundamental oneness of humanity and all creation. Dr. Robert Muller, Chancellor of the United Nations University for Peace; Former Assistant Secretary General of the United Nations Here is a manual for raising the human dimension and struggle to its cosmic significance. Its encyclopedic scope and depth is the product of a lifetime of dedicated study. Orest Bedrij brings fresh light to the Divine disguise in time . . . The book turns into the coinage of everyday parlance. Dr. Glen A. Olds, Former President of Kent State University; US Ambassador to the UN Economic and Social Counsel Cover design by Andrew Patapis

This is a new release of the original 1962 edition.

Max Tegmark leads us on an astonishing journey through past, present and future, and through the physics, astronomy and mathematics that are the foundation of his work, most particularly his hypothesis that our physical reality is a mathematical structure and his theory of the ultimate multiverse. In a dazzling combination of both popular and groundbreaking science, he not only helps us grasp his often mind-boggling theories, but he also shares with us some of the often surprising triumphs and disappointments that have shaped his life as a scientist. Fascinating from first to last—this is a book that has already prompted the attention and admiration of some of the most prominent scientists and mathematicians.

This book, the first of two volumes, uses a framework of philosophical anthropology, and the concepts of humanistic leadership and humanistic management, to explore the value of work in the hospitality and tourism industry. It presents robust theoretical and practical implications for professionalism and excellence at work. This volume addresses the hospitality professional, beginning with an exploration of the foundational literature, before moving on to discuss topics like the concept of human dignity at work, how one can find meaning within the hospitality industry, spirituality at work, philosophy in the world of work, and personal development. These volumes will be of use to academics and practitioners in the fields of hospitality and tourism management, humanistic and transformational leadership, corporate social responsibility, human resource management, customer service, and workplace spirituality.

Focusing on the transformation of the scholastic notion of 'occult qualities' during the Scientific Revolution, this book offers novel insights into the new approaches to early modern science, and the disciplinary realignments that shaped the new physics of the age.

This book uses humanity-rationality and experience and the freedom of human will as a theoretical perspective to examine the basic framework of criminal law theories constructed by the criminal classic school and the criminal empirical school. The author puts forward the principle of the duality of rationality and experience of humanity and affirms the determinism of human behavior in the ontological sense and the freedom of will in the axiological sense. From this point of view, this book examines the humanistic foundations of crime and punishment, legislation and justice.

The question of what the nature of history is, is a key issue for all students of history. It is recognized by many that the past and history are different phenomena and that the way the past is actively historicized can be highly problematic and contested.

This collection of essays investigates the notions of life, living organisms, and human nature in Classical German Philosophy from a historical and conceptual perspective. Its 19 chapters move from the peculiarities of organic life to the peculiarities of the distinctly human life form and discuss the strengths and weaknesses of naturalistic accounts of life. In light of the growing interest in nature within current philosophical debates, the book provides an overview of what the philosophical epoch of Kant, Fichte, Schelling, Humboldt, the Romantics, Hegel, and others can contribute to our understanding of life today. The collection of essays represents a plurality of approaches that reflects the pluralism of the tradition itself – highlighting the liveliness and polyphonic nature of the issues at stake and the ways in which they were approached in post-Kantian thought.In combining historical and philosophical investigation, the collection constitutes a unique resource for scholars and graduate students working in various areas related to the study of nature in philosophy, contemporary theories of science, and the humanities more generally.
