The development of science, logic, mathematics, and psychology in the 19th century made it necessary to introduce a growing number of new entities, of which classical empiricism and strong extensionalism were unable to give a wholly satisfying account. One of the major issues confronting the 20th century philosophers was to identify which of these entities should be rationally accepted as part of the furniture of the world and which should not, and to provide a general account of how the latter are nevertheless subject to true predication. The 13 original essays collected in this volume explore some of the main approaches to this issue in the 20th century, including Brentano, Meinong, Husserl, Carnap, Frege, Twardowski, Kotarbinski, Nicolai Hartmann, and realist phenomenologists.

The world, matter has the looks of a ballet But it is only music, A melody In 1970 the author presented a view of the universe that linked physics and esoterism. This model was based on the thought that there had to be two parallel universes - to use a language that we are all familiar with. Dr. Leclercq work of the last few years was dedicated to further this analysis. The entire concept is prepared outside the university culture, it contains no mathematical formula, thus it can be seen as a work of fiction, or else as a vision. There are very many basic assumptions of physics that can be challenged without ever rejecting the experimental data. During the last thirty years for instance the superstring theory appeared: there would be a single element behind all the known aspects of matter. Since 1998 there is a challenge to this view. A theory, offered by the Drs Randall and Raman, suggests that there are parallel universes, this being the only way to explain some facts of physics. You can imagine the pleasure of Dr. Bruno Leclercq to see his 'fiction' progressively more and more vindicated. Neither of these modern theories says anything about the way electricity or magnetism work. They also fail to see that their theory may validate the claims of the 'seers' and visionaries of all times, whose visions are the base of all religions. Are there really particles of matter? Or as we said earlier and as the cover suggests are all phenomena nothing more that the local, ephemerous effect of energy as it jumps between the points of space? Is the universe in expansion? Could there be a god? This Theory B will make you think.

What if those who pretend to perceive something beyond the visible, what if they were right? Is Science capable of saying that it may indeed be so? We are presenting a complete view of the world and of man. Admittedly, it can be considered as pure fiction as no mathematical formulas are used anywhere in those texts. The hardware, the multi layer structure of our brain was described in 'Man, Worm and Ant' of the same author. In 'Glitter', we are looking at the software aspect of our flesh computer. This is a thorough analysis of the organization and functioning of the brain-mind. But it doesn't end there. In 'Yoga des Sphres', in 1970, this author postulated the existence of two 'parallel' universes. In 'Matter of Dream' this concept is repeated with more details. This is heresy to most physicists, yet there is a new theory within the walls of the university - thus debatable but acceptable - theory that shows that some of the problems encountered by physics can be resolved, assuming that the universe is indeed multi-layered. This theory is mostly the brain-child of Drs. Lisa Randall, and Raman Sundrum. Dr Leclercq's description of this complex universe opens the door to accepting that there is indeed clairvoyance and thaumaturgic healing. It also shows that the notion of 'spirits' and 'souls' can be supported by science once it is seen that there are parallel universes really communicating. We can then ponder the presence of other entities, even gods maybe. In any case, this path finally helps us think reasonably about what we are here for. Are we just accidents of matter? Are we pawns placed for the enjoyment of some creator? Are we helpers in the progress of evolution? Dr. Leclercqsays we are!

Unexpected death in the family made the author realize that in his previous book he had just scanned the notions of the afterlife. first few days, and thereafter. This leads to the Sacraments: how they work, their usefulness. The soul is stuck in the Purgatory by his Sins - unresolved issues between what he thought he should have done and what he did - What are sins today? Politics changes this life and also the next. Two issues. New laws create new forbidden activities, new sins. On another scale, unjustified war is more power to Evil. Indirectly this entity gives added strength to the groups who impose abnormal laws on the majority. Entering the Age of Aquarius, Reason should establish its power. Laws should be thought thru: what about nature? biosphere, needs of evolution, of mankind; human instincts; energy: water, love, money. The author established earlier the existence of another world, here he clarifies the links between both sides, explains the living souls' - this silent majority's needs. direction of society.
