The Beginning of Infinity: Explanations That Transform the World

The Beginning of Infinity is a groundbreaking book that will change the way you think about knowledge, progress, and the human condition.

Award-winning physicist David Deutsch argues that explanations are the fundamental building blocks of the universe, and that improving them is the basic regulating principle of all successful human endeavor.

Taking us on a journey through every fundamental field of science, as well as the history of civilization, art, moral values, and political institutions, Deutsch tracks how we form new explanations and drop bad ones, explaining the conditions under which progress can and cannot happen.

This book is highly original, ambitious, and deeply connected to the laws of nature, the human condition, knowledge, and the possibility for progress.

It's a must-read for anyone looking to understand the nature of reality and the potential for endless growth and improvement.
