Lloyd Whitling (Author)

Book Description

Publication Date: September 5, 2002

A controversial 100 thousand word guide into worlds you never thought to explore. Whitling offers straight talk about memetics with a twist: how to recognize your own malignant memes, how to free yourself with evolutionary concepts, relevance of demons and angels, what are your lifetime aims (and why you probably don't know), and what is at stake. To quote from its author: "My mind's filled with open cans of worms so I can induce others to go fishing." A cogent, in-your-face challenge to current perceptions about the universe and Evolution as Creation's first cause. Can he pull this off?Yes! Go with him down many paths to the same destination. The fiery end of human life on earth may not be from bombs or plagues. Learn about what NASA is keeping their eyes on while we distract ourselves with petty jousts. Recent scientific discoveries and theories help you develop a personal lifeplan for an accomplishment-oriented existence you will enjoy. Read it. See for yourself.

More About the Author

Lloyd H. Whitling, a native Pennsylvanian, has been in trouble since 1937 due to a sense of curiosity that cannot be satisfied with superficial or artificial details about his surroundings. His hands-on attitude has led him through a diverse existence that he draws on for his books and web site. The result is a unique point of view that, most likely, will keep him in trouble with his readers.

This review is from: The Complete Universe of Memes: Branches of Reality on The Reality Tree (Paperback)

Juicy and fresh insights show a whole new realm of Nature where we all live in an ocean of interwoven continua. Parasitic memes swim through that ocean looking for bubbles of vacuum toward which they are sucked. They become those bubbles' occupants, from where they replicate to fill that part of the ocean that's in our minds, and learn to steer and control the body to which each mind belongs. The author starts with his new defense of evolution as the first cause of creation, and as a necessary ingredient of a complete understanding of the relationship between energy and time, with evolution as a necessary component of energy, and time as the impetus.
An extremely advanced thinker flies in the face of science, religion, and common conceptions to take off in a new direction with this subject. If you haven't read this book, and its companion Reality 101 ISBN 0-595-21834-2, you have not yet seen a full understanding of all the meanings of memetics, and have yet to learn all that it implies. The book is controversial to the extreme, yet practical and utilitarian in application.
I recommend also to read The Mad Poet Does Science, which can only be purchased directly from this author at lloydwhitling.com because it is self-published.
