Theory of Nothing

Описание:
This book covers a diverse range of topics that may be of interest to info-lifers or Infodels. It takes the idea of the anthropic principle and developes the idea of the multiverse and using information theory to explain that an ensemble of universes with every random configuration carries no information and is essentially nothing. We would (using anthropic reasoning) as conscious observers find ourselves only in a highly ordered subset of the ensemble. The book goes on to describe the implications of such a world with regard to the simulation argument, personal immortality and the doomsday argument. His Borgesian worldview is backed up by mathematical and philosophical arguments. Definitely a good read for infolifers of a mathematical platonist bent.Похожие книги
