This course chronicles the history of Earth and life on Earth from the point of view of the minerals that made it all happen. A major theme is how minerals and life coevolved, leading to the unprecedented mineral diversity on our world compared to the other planets in the solar system. Professor Hazen tells this epic story in 48 action-packed lectures that take you from the big bang to the formation of the solar system to the major milestones that marked the evolution of Earth and life.

Who are we, and how did we get here? These are two of the most fundamental and far-reaching questions facing scientists and cosmologists alike and have rested at the center of human intellectual endeavor since its beginning. They are questions that stretch across numerous disciplines. Philosophy, theology, evolutionary biology, and mathematics are just some of the fields looking to explain the emergence of human life.

Our true origins are not only human, or even terrestrial, but in fact cosmic. Drawing on recent scientific breakthroughs and cross-pollination among geology, biology, astrophysics, and cosmology, Origins illuminates the soul-stirring leaps in our understanding of the cosmos. This newly revised and updated edition features such startling discoveries as the more than 5,000 newly detected exoplanets that shed light on the origins of and possibilities for life in the cosmos.

More than 30 years ago, Frank White coined the term "overview effect", to describe the cognitive shift in awareness that results from the experience of viewing Earth from orbit or the moon. He found, that with great consistency, this experience profoundly affects space travelers' worldviews - their perceptions of themselves and our planet and our understanding of the future. White found that astronauts know from direct experience what the rest of us know only intellectually: We live on a planet that is like a natural spaceship moving through the universe.

Seja você um entusiasta da ciência, um pensador profundo ou simplesmente alguém em busca de aventura e sabedoria, este livro promete um refúgio do cotidiano, transportando-o em uma viagem de conhecimento e inspiração.

Story is the source code of culture and consciousness and of all Reality-all the way up and down the evolutionary chain. Story is the attempt to gather information about the nature of Reality and translate it into narrative frameworks bounded by Value. Stories that organize culture are Stories of Value backed by the Universe. Postmodernity argues that Reality is just a story, and that all stories are created equal (equally meaningless of inherent value) because value itself is not real. And therefore, all stories of value are but social constructs, fictions, figments of our imagination.

This book is an homage to the deep love and Whole Mate relationship between Barbara Marx Hubbard and Marc Gafni, with all its depth, beauty and challenges. It tells the story of how they both deepened their intimacy through sometimes fierce contestation while modelling how to have evolutionary conversations as Homo amor. They were allured to each other in their shared desire to tell a new Story of Value—the new story that had the depth and power to activate the emergence of a new human and new humanity with the capacity to respond to existential risk.

Everywhere light goes, It has found that darkness is already there. Darkness is the natural state of the universe. For a star to be born, it takes an astounding number of possibilities to become a reality. From this unlikely alignment, we now have trillions of stars! Thankfully stars would progress to give us light, life, and an observable universe. No one knows how many stars exist, but we will tour a handful of the most famous in our known universe. Sit back and enjoy the world of outer space that spreads before you. Each constellation and luminary has a story that you won’t want to miss!

How did we get here? What was here before us? In this informative book, Cosmic Evolution, written by Ramesh Nathan, founder of the Church of Illuminism, explore the concept of evolution. Evolution is very different from what we have been taught. In the modern world, we relate evolution to a physical process and growth. This is incorrect. The concept of evolution in reality has only to deal with the soul, with the consciousness. The evolution of mankind is the evolution of mankind's consciousness.

LONGLISTED FOR THE NATIONAL BOOK AWARD NATIONAL BESTSELLER “A riveting feat of science writing that recasts that most familiar of celestial objects into something eerily extraordinary, pivotal to our history, and awesome in the original sense of the word.”—Ed Yong, New York Times...

Evolution and creation are in a spiritual battle. Evolution scientists ignore, dismiss, and unequivocally reject creation out of hand - "It is not science or fact as evolution is," they say. However, Nullifying God shows that random Darwinian evolution does not have the direct evidence required to support the claim. Not only that, but it provides contrary evidence that evolution is biologically impossible.
