Paperback. Condizione: new. Paperback. Must we destroy more than we create?Human exceptionalism is our conviction that we are not solely governed by natural laws. Our exceptionalism gives the universe meaning and it makes us superior to everything. This is a myth. We are trapped believing there is a radical break between nature and us. We have subjectively constructed an unreal world in our relationships, institutions, and belief systems.The real story is not human-centered. Science alone allows us to see ourselves from the outside, particularly through the law of entropy. This second law of thermodynamics prescribes the breakdown of organized particles into random ones that can never again be gathered into complex matter. We exist to participate in this mandate as part of the arc of the cosmos. We resist entropy but fail. This physical process underlies the conflicts within our species and social organizations as we try to amass matter but inevitably burn through it; create order and destroy it. How can we make ourselves safe in this world? Will we create a new species? In Entropy Rules, retired psychotherapist Grant Goodbrand - with over fifty years of experience helping individuals find personal meaning- explores how the laws of physics underlie our personal meanings and the values our species imposes. This offers us within the limits of natural law ameliorating alternatives to our destructive activities. How can we make ourselves safe in a world where order inevitably breaks down to randomness? Entropy Rules explores how the laws of physics underlie the values we impose, offering alternatives to our destructive activities. This item is printed on demand.
