In this book, Dr. Allan Benjamin considers such widely ranging topics as: > The origin of consciousness and our processing of it; > Precognition and our processing of choice and time; > Collective intelligence and the role of DNA; > Emotional connectedness versus self-interest; > The meaning of near-death experiences; > Why there is something rather than “everything”; > Our reality being a computer-like simulation.By synthesizing scientific principles and verified discoveries with the viewpoints of the foremost experts in physics, biology, medicine, philosophy, and psychology, and his own experiences, he develops a separate case for each topic that leads to an integrated case for the nature of reality.To be sure, these subjects have been studied and reported upon by many experts in many fields over many years. Until now, however, practically all of the studies have been pursued from the perspective of either objective science or subjective experience, but not both. What seems to be lacking is a comprehensive accounting that combines objectivism and subjectivism in an integrated manner. In this book, Dr. Benjamin addresses this gap to produce a case for reality that is consistent with both perspectives.Allan Benjamin is a former Senior Technical Fellow and present Independent Consultant specializing in complex topics including the analysis of uncertainties and accounting for unknowns in the planning, development, and execution of large programs of national interest. He has 50 years of experience consulting for NASA, the US Department of Energy, Department of Defense, national laboratories, and large aerospace companies. His current professional efforts are directed toward providing guidance to the Office of Safety and Mission Assurance at NASA Headquarters in Washington, DC, in the areas of space system safety and risk management.
