Reviews
"Usually we say the universe is made of particles, but Päs shows how quantum physics inverts that. The whole comes first, not the parts--the parts come from fragmenting the whole. I'll never see reality the same way again!"-- George Musser, author of Spooky Action at a Distance, "Are we one with the universe? It is a question as old as mankind, as deep as a wormhole, and as broad as the infinitely branching possibilities of the Manu World's Interpretation. But Päs is ready for the challenge and delivers an original and fresh account of both the history and the science of monism. An enticing read for those who seek to understand their place in nature--and who does not?"-- Sabine Hossenfelder, physicist and author of Existential Physics
Synopsis
A "fascinating [and] provocative" argument by a particle physicist--marshalling a "heady mix of history, philosophy and cutting-edge theory" ( Wall Street Journal )--for monism, the ancient idea about the universe that says, All is One In The One , particle physicist Heinrich Päs presents a bold idea: fundamentally, everything in the universe is an aspect of one unified whole. The idea, called monism, has a rich three-thousand-year history: Plato believed that "all is one" before monism was rejected as irrational and suppressed as a heresy by the medieval Church. Nevertheless, monism persisted, inspiring Enlightenment science and Romantic poetry. Päs aims to show how monism could inspire physics today, how it could slice through the intellectual stagnation that has bogged down progress in modern physics and help the field achieve the grand theory of everything it has been chasing for decades. Blending physics, philosophy, and the history of ideas, The One is an epic, mind-expanding journey through millennia of human thought and into the nature of reality itself.
