Mind Over Matter Illustrated

Is it possible to 'send' thoughts into someone else's brain? Can random number generators predict future events? Why does a placebo work like a drug? Is there a collective consciousness? Even in this age of neurological discovery, the mind is still largely uncharted territory. What if there is more to the power of thought than we have yet grasped? This enthralling introduction, packed with illustrations and feature panels, takes in an extraordinary breadth of topi, with an even-handed approach, sifting fact from fantasy—and fraud. Encompassing the ideas of the greatest minds in Western intellectual and scientific history—Aristotle, Descartes, Newton, Einstein and more—it ventures far beyond the confines of that tradition to address Eastern thought and other ways of knowing, and exploring some of the enigmas that might conceivably be unlocked in the near future. "A smart, dynamic, approachable exploration ... offering a rare blend of compelling narrative and responsible research on the connections between mind and matter."

Mind Over Matter is a children's book about the effects of what you concentrate and focus on. Creed was at school playing a game of tag with his classmates and stepped on a nail. He had to go to the doctor to get a tetanus shot. He also learned later that week that he needed to get a coronavirus shot. Before Creed learned about Mind Over Matter, he was always afraid to get vaccinations. He was told by his doctor that is was just Mind Over Matter. He took both shots and did not feel a thing. We believe the children who read this book, will have a good experience when getting their next shot.

This book explores mind over matter in a digital age and presents the importance of continued transformation of the mind to promote humane Artificial Intelligence for greater good. In doing so, it focuses on the organizational and managerial practices that are critical in creating an environment that supports mindset and organizational growth. The digital age is significantly impacting employees and organizations and steering billions of people around the world. Artificial Intelligence has created a whole new paradigm with a revolution loftier than all the industrial revolutions and the innovations of the past millennia combined. We are either headed towards restoring humanity back to the “Imago Dei”, where creative powers are unleashed in human freedom, or advocating selective breeding and “survival of the fittest”.

A Mind Over Matter is a biography of the Nobel-prize winner Philip W. Anderson, a person widely regarded as one of the most accomplished and influential physicists of the second half of the twentieth century. Anderson (1923-2020) was a theoretician who specialized in the physics of matter, including window glass and metals, magnets and semiconductors, liquid crystals and superconductors. More than any other single person, Anderson transformed the patchwork subject of solid-state physics into the deep, subtle, and coherent discipline known today as condensed matter physics. Among his many world-class research achievements, Anderson discovered an aspect of wave physics that had been missed by all previous scientists going back to Isaac Newton. He became a public figure when he testified before Congress to oppose its funding of an expensive project intended exclusively for particle physics research. Over the years, he published many articles designed to influence a broad audience about issues where science impacted public policy and culture. Anderson grew up in the American mid-west, was educated at Harvard, and rose to the pinnacle of his profession during the first decade of his thirty-five career as a theoretical physicist at Bell Telephone Laboratories. Almost uniquely, he spent many years working half-time as a professor at the University of Cambridge and at Princeton University. The outspoken Anderson enjoyed broad influence outside of physics when he helped develop and champion the concepts of emergence and complexity as organizing principles to help attack very difficult problems in technically challenging disciplines.
