Quantum physics has revealed that objects can exist in more than one location simultaneously, even though the objects are invisible to us in all but one location, that is, parallel universes exist. This is most blatantly revealed in the mind shattering 'double-slit' experiment and is at the core of what is called 'the measurement problem,' in quantum physics.

What if reality is not something you simply witness—but something you actively refract? In Refractions of the Real: A Manual for Self-Directed Beings, philosopher Kevin L. Michel invites you to step beyond passive “truth-seeking” and master the hidden prism of perception that colors every moment of your life. Blending Stoic clarity, Hermetic principles, and flashes of Nietzschean insight, Michel shows how the light of the world and the lens of the mind together create the spectrum we call “reality.”Inside, you’ll discover how to: See through first impressions – train the eye ...

Si Jed Martin, le personnage principal de ce roman, devait vous en raconter l'histoire, il commencerait peut-être par vous parler d'une panne de chauffe-eau, un certain 15 décembre.
