Synopsis

This book asks a profound question: is it possible that we are conditioned as indestructible conscious units, who can simultaneously exist and play an active role in a universe of endless changes? The author, an experienced scientist and philosopher, believes that our existence as unchanging personalities, yet active participants in a universe of endless changes, is a real possibility. This scientifically grounded text presents evidence that the ultimate atom could be an indivisible sentient unit, eternally conditioned by force and extension. The author pulls from the realms of physics and philosophy to explore complex topics such as isomeric substances, molecular structure, and the cooperative action of force. They analyze the nature of atomic units and posit that if every living or sentient atom is indivisible and indestructible, then all of its modes of sentient force are unique in their kind and are also denitely related to associated physical forces. This book is a nuanced exploration of the profound problem of personal identity and the nature of ultimate reality, a must-read for anyone interested in the intersection of science and philosophy.

Présentation de l'éditeur

This book was originally published prior to 1923, and represents a reproduction of an important historical work, maintaining the same format as the original work. While some publishers have opted to apply OCR (optical character recognition) technology to the process, we believe this leads to sub-optimal results (frequent typographical errors, strange characters and confusing formatting) and does not adequately preserve the historical character of the original artifact. We believe this work is culturally important in its original archival form. While we strive to adequately clean and digitally enhance the original work, there are occasionally instances where imperfections such as blurred or missing pages, poor pictures or errant marks may have been introduced due to either the quality of the original work or the scanning process itself. Despite these occasional imperfections, we have brought it back into print as part of our ongoing global book preservation commitment, providing customers with access to the best possible historical reprints. We appreciate your understanding of these occasional imperfections, and sincerely hope you enjoy seeing the book in a format as close as possible to that intended by the original publisher.
