VOLUME 8 OF THE COPERNICAN SERIES
Atoms, Stars and
Minds: Synthesizing An Elementary Particle That Comprehends Itself, the
third volume of The Copernican Series, hypothesizes an elementary particle with
two properties, motion and attraction, to explain the motion and force measured
in the universe. It requires that the hypothesized particle describe a mind
that can perceive the measured force and motion that the particle describes.
The Model Mind: How The Mind Moves Matter, the fourth volume of The Copernican
Series, describes how the resulting mind, described in the last four chapters
of Atoms, Stars and Minds, affects physical matter.
This, the eighth volume of The Copernican Series, takes the mind's operation
a step further and describes how it produces the societies that we form, the
religions we observe, the sciences we create and the behavior we are driven
to engage in.
Human Nature: How The Mind Generates Behavior describes how the mind
handles objects in physical reality; how it deals with nonapparent reality,
questions of energy, the source of force and motion and questions of origin,
the source of objects in physical reality; how it creates realities that do
not exist in reality to produce the technology we use to alter reality to our
benefit; and how, by creating realities that do not exist in reality, the mind,
by its interactions with other minds, creates morality to restrain what would
otherwise be societally destructive behavior.
Human Nature concludes discussing how the mind drives one society to
take the resources of other societies and how that drive might affect the future
of the planet.
