Since the time of the Greek philosopher Zeno (fifth century BCE),
our faculty of analytic understanding has failed to comprehend
motion through the ages. The reason is the paradox or contradiction
associated with motion. One fundamental contradiction is the
conflict between the finite body and the infinite divisibility of
the unit distance ab. Indeed, how is it possible to move from a to
b if we must first pass through an infinite series of sub-distances
in one instant? How can we traverse an unlimited series-a series
without limit-yet reach its limit? Because the heart of the problem
is the conflict between the finite and the infinite, its solution
depends on reconciling this contradiction and transforming this
reconciliation into the founding principle of motion. Having
accomplished these two things, this work investigates the sweeping
consequences they have regarding the geometric form of the physical
universe, the Aristotelian ontology of the physical body, the
nature of our finite brain, the finite analytic paradigm of
empirical science and the meaning of our technological
acceleration. This book will appeal to a wide range of readers with
interests in the logical mechanics of the physical universe, the
hidden powers of our finite brain, and the utility of robots in the
future. Although some of the presentation requires the
understanding of elementary mathematical equations, the argument is
conducted at the deepest level: that of principles. This approach
enables readers to follow the book's reasoning without technical
training on the subject. For more information, please visit the
