The Black Book
Кои сме? От къде идваме? Къде отиваме? Първият мъдрец, задал си тези въпроси, слага начало на философията (любов + мъдрост) като един вечен стремеж към познанието. От тогава до ден днешен чозечеството продължава да гради хипотези и да търси отговори. И истински ценното в случая не е дали някога ще бъдат намерени отговорите, а това, че търсенето не престава. Нали в стремежа за откриване на отговори се корени прогресът? А всяка хипотеза създава теория, в основата на която стои желанието за познание. Важно ли е да е вярна? Разбира се, че не. Дори и невярна, тя отново е един поглед към познанието. Според физиците в един отрицателен резултат понякога се сълържа повече информация, отколкото може да се открие в положителния. А както казва Джон Кехоу в книгата си „Успехът и парите": „Не"-то полага пътя, по който в крайна сметка да стигнем до „Да".

Kniha, ktorú som priebežne začínal čítať posledných 10 rokov. Vždy som ju vybral z knižnice, začítal sa, zívol a odložil. Koronovská izolácia je výborný čas práve na dobehnutie takýchto restov. Vytriezvenie prišlo už po predslove. Autor vie, prečo oslovuje ľudí, ktorí knihu NEBUDÚ ČÍTAŤ a apeluje na nich spôsobom "blahoslavení chudobní duchom". Človek nemusí byť príliš veľký skeptik, aby zbystril pozornosť pri slovách "levitácia" či "reinkarnácia", najmä v knihe, ktorá sa má zaoberať paradoxmi logického myslenia. Vzletná klasifikácia kvantovo-teologickej a filozofickej rozpravy je len zavádzanie. Celá kniha je viac ezoterická, než filozofická. Snaží sa predostrieť hypotézu a overovať ju prostredníctvom všeobecne známych faktov, no nefunguje to. Plesnivou čerešničkou na tejto kôpke sú potom vyjadrenia "najväčšieho média a jasnovidca 20. storočia". Pôvodne som chcel dať knihe 2* za podporu kritického myslenia - možno pri čítaní budete krčiť čelo, ale ak to začnete vnímať ako argumentačný tréning a vážne nemáte čo robiť, skrátite si čas. Potom mi napadlo, že Nabokovej Lolite som dal 3*. Posadiť v rámci hodnotenia Lolitu - akokoľvek ma nudila - vedľa tejto ezoterickej p*čoviny by nebolo fér.

The Black Book: http://readwithstyle.wordpress.com/20...
Nobody ever sees anything. Nobody every hears anything. Nobody ever tastes anything. Nobody ever smells anything. The material world as we know it doesn’t exist. Merely, it is a hologram created in our mind. Yes, you heard right. I am not touching or seeing my laptop while I am writing this. I am not seeing the words on the screen. I am merely in touch with the computer’s energy field. You can shape the world any way you want it because this world exists only in your mind.
Basing his research on philosophy, theology, and physics, Ivomir carefully proves that all of our senses are biased. Quantum theory itself states that electrons have both wave-like and particle-like characteristics and they behave as particles only when we observe them. The common idea that we see the world because it exists turns to the world exists because we look at it. In fact electrical signals are sent to our eyes, nose, ears, fingers. These signals then interact with the mind to produce images, smells, sounds, and feelings. According to this theory, one is perfectly capable of controlling his world, because it only exists in his/her mind. As Salman Rushdie himself said it: “Memory has its own special kind. It selects, eliminates, alters, exaggerates, minimizes, glorifies, and vilifies also; but in the end it creates its own reality, its heterogenous but usually coherent version of events; and no same human being ever trusts someone else’s version more than his own.” In other words, I can’t complain the world is like this; the world is like this because I myself created it in my mind.
