This book examines the fundamental basis of 'reality, ' in all of
its manifested forms, whether or not experienced by humans.
Explored are what there is to know; what it is we are capable of
knowing; what makes such knowing possible (theoretically,
technologically, anatomically, physiologically, etc.) ... and ...
perhaps more interestingly, clearly identified are what it is we
are not capable of knowing: why we can never know these things, and
what this inability means in terms of how we perceive the world
around us in all of its various forms. These include physical,
chemical, political, social, economic, religious, cultural, and
other manifestations of reality -- all of which, as is shown,
derive from a common set of fundamental attributes ... denominators
that are 'common' to all realizable forms of energy, and hence,
form the basis for a 'Unified Theory of Everything. Having
discovered this, one is able to explain the essence of everything
... or, at least, know what to look for in seeking meaningful
knowledge. Indeed, the search for knowledge, and through it, truth,
is among the strongest of all human drives. As a part of this
search, we constantly seek common denominators ... basic attributes
that can help us, in some generic sense, gain further insights into
the fundamental nature of our universe, and how it becomes manifest
in our daily experiences. Indeed, this book explores how we
perceive the world around us, and how we build those perceptions
into a body of knowledge. The quest for such knowledge ... the
journey ... may be an end in itself for - given our own anatomic,
physiologic, technologic, analytic, sociologic, political, and
other constraints and limitations - the ultimate objective may very
well be unattainable. That having been said, however, our
continuing efforts to improve life on this planet is an attainable
goal ... so, to that end, we strive to learn more, to understand
more, to accomplish more, and to keep expanding the envelope of our
abilities and understanding.
