Actually, I've only read some of this book. I was disappointed to find out that this person isn't even a scholar; this book is just about some guy's intuitions of how the universe works. It's laced with some preliminary scientific knowledge, but I found a number of glaring errors just in the first few pages.

I'm about half-way or more though this book. I just put that I've read it so I could leave a review. I thought several of the underlying points in this book were illogical conclusions. And most of the rest of it I just don't buy. It's not because I'm a physicalist or scientistic (I'm not), as this is a very spiritual book, just his strange take on things. Examples of pillars of this book's content that I thought were illogical: 1. If you have a nanoscopic pendulum, at the points where it has zero velocity its location is anywhere, because according to Heisenberg Uncertainty the more precisely position or velocity is defined the less precisely the other is on quantum scales, and mathematically at the apexes of the pendulum's motion you know its velocity is exactly zero. And atoms and other things behave like pendulums, therefore we're all in omnispace several times a second. This makes no sense because you can calculate the velocity of a pendulum to total precision at any point in its motion, not just where it's zero. I'm not a physicist, but I strongly suspect there's something wrong with his assuming it's relevant on a quantum level that we can theoretically calculate the the position/velocity/acceleration of a pendulum at any given time or place. 2. He likens the uncertainty of position at tiny scales to motion that's faster than light, and compares that to the fact that you traverse many points of space at once when you travel at light speed, and concludes from that that we're omnipresent. First, uncertainty isn't the same as traveling or propagating, and second, when you travel at light speed you only occupy the points in a "world line" (the specific path you follow), not all points in space. I'm sure there were more things I thought were illogical but I don't remember them. IMO, the best and possibly only good part of this book is his story of how a large rock or cliff face or whatever it is begins to become sentient and a protector, about half-way into the book. As I said, though, I haven't finished it.
