Reason, we are told, is what makes us human, the source of our knowledge and wisdom. If reason is so useful, why didn't it also evolve in other animals? If reason is that reliable, why do we produce so much thoroughly reasoned nonsense? In their groundbreaking account of the evolution and workings of reason, Hugo Mercier and Dan Sperber set out to solve this double enigma.

Bayes' rule appears to be a straightforward, one-line theorem: by updating our initial beliefs with objective new information, we get a new and improved belief. To its adherents, it is an elegant statement about learning from experience. To its opponents, it is subjectivity run amok. Sharon Bertsch McGrayne here explores this controversial theorem and the human obsessions surrounding it.

According to Winston Churchill, Alan Turing made the single biggest contribution to the Allied victory over Nazi Germany with his code-breaking machine. The world is also indebted to Turing's genius for the modern computer. It was clear that Turing had a remarkable mind from an early age. He taught himself to read in just three weeks. At his first school, the headmistress said, "I have had clever and hardworking boys, but Alan has genius."

A fascinating, comprehensive, accessible account of conodont fossils—one of paleontology's greatest mysteries. Simon J. Knell takes the listener on a journey through 150 years of scientific thinking, imagining, and arguing. Slowly the animal begins to reveal traces of itself: its lifestyle, its remarkable evolution, its witnessing of great catastrophes, its movements over the surface of the planet, and finally its anatomy. Today the conodont animal remains perhaps the most disputed creature in the zoological world.

Is the world around us real—or is it a construct, a mirage generated by a powerful and incomprehensibly advanced intelligence? This question, once confined to the pages of science fiction novels and speculative late-night discussions, has in recent years migrated into the heart of contemporary philosophical and scientific inquiry. The idea that our universe might be an elaborate simulation, running on an immense computational substrate, is no longer dismissed as a fringe hypothesis. Instead, it is now taken seriously by physicists, cosmologists, computer scientists, and philosophers alike.

What is the connection between physics and consciousness? In this groundbreaking new audiobook, Samuel Avery presents the quantum screen, a paradigm-shifting model of perceptual consciousness and of the world. This model looks to the enigmas of modern physics to demonstrate the primacy of consciousness - the essential oneness of spirit and matter.

Welcome to our podcast! People are reporting UAP sightings worldwide. There are thousands of historical reports, some of which researchers have rigorously investigated yet remain unidentified. In this podcast, we speak to witnesses, authors, researchers, and others to seek a better understanding of UAP. At Enigma Labs, we aim to advance progress on UAP using cutting-edge technology and social intelligence. Only through the thoughtful, open-minded study of unidentified phenomena can we get answers.
