Introduction
Find-Your-Map is the book I wish I had when I was eighteen, a time when there is a lot to discover, but little time to learn. Where to start? I contend this book is a good place. One book that covers philosophy, mathematics, and science, while integrating recent findings on life, quantum biology, and how humans learned to think. The recent findings include three hypotheses: chemist Nick Lane's bioelectric hypothesis related to energy and life; psychiatrist Iain McGilchrist's hemisphere hypothesis that describes how our divided brain aligns with a universe that is also divided into discrete and continuous elements; and my temporal hypothesis that describes how humans learned to think. The three work well together, while the latter completes Ayn Rand's work in epistemology. Rand was one of the great minds of the twentieth century, if equally controversial. Thus, this is not an easy book, covering topics from quantum mechanics to how psychedelics may have influenced early religions. It is though, I hope, as real as it gets - our teenagers deserve the best.
Book Availability
This book is available at Amazon in both hard and soft copy format.
Electronic transcript
A PDF version of the book is provided here for free as I would like the book to be available to all teenagers regardless of economic means. As well, given the number of images in the book, the download option allows users to manipulate the size of the images in order to ensure optimal readability. Those wishing to support this project can purchase a copy of the book for a friend or interested teenager - thank you!
