Bestselling author and astrophysicist Mario Livio examines the lives and theories of history's greatest mathematicians to ask how--if mathematics is an abstract construction of the human mind--it can so perfectly explain the physical world. Nobel Laureate Eugene Wigner once wondered about "the unreasonable effectiveness of mathematics" in the formulation of the laws of nature. Is God a Mathematician? investigates why mathematics is as powerful as it is. From ancient times to the present, scientists and philosophers have marveled at how such a seemingly abstract discipline could so perfectly explain the natural world. More than that--mathematics has often made predictions, for example, about subatomic particles or cosmic phenomena that were unknown at the time, but later were proven to be true. Is mathematics ultimately invented or discovered? If, as Einstein insisted, mathematics is "a product of human thought that is independent of experience," how can it so accurately describe and even predict the world around us? Physicist and author Mario Livio brilliantly explores mathematical ideas from Pythagoras to the present day as he shows us how intriguing questions and ingenious answers have led to ever deeper insights into our world. This fascinating book will interest anyone curious about the human mind, the scientific world, and the relationship between them.Binding Type: Paperback

The book is great e Dept the lady chapter
Format: Kindle
I loved reading every moment of this book up until the last chapter. You can’t pray Jesus I to your heart and expect to get to Heaven. First you must become a disciple as Jesus commanded in Matthew 28:18-20. Jesus said disciples get baptized. The. We receive the gift of the Holy Spirit Acts 2:36-41. Read all of Acts 1 and 2 to really understand what happened. Many people think they are on the narrow road but they don’t fully follow what Jesus laid out. Matthew 7:21-23 shows us. We can’t take parts of scripture and create our own religion that’s easy and appeals to our feelings and is just motivational. We must be willing to give our WHOLE heart to avoid, keep His statutes, and obey His will totally (Psalm 119:1-2). It takes understanding of biblical principles, practice, and guidance from other disciples. If you’d like to explore this more check out PHXICC.org…. We are a highly persecuted group of dedicated disciples imitating the first century church….persecuted like they were! It’s awesome to read the entire book of Acts and know we are bringing it into our modern times! God can move powerfully through us when we give Him our whole heart and obey….. otherwise we are receiving gifts from satan….. think about that!

The end of our age
Format: Kindle
This book clarifies scripture regarding signs that we are in the end times that lead to Jesus' return. These signs that were given 2000 years ago are happening now right before our eyes. This book is about ten years old now and I don't have to tell anyone reading it now how even more accurate the words of Jesus and the prophets are ringing true today. Jesus is coming and I for one am looking up, ready to meet Him in the sky!
