Science Unshackled | Restoring Causality in a World of Chaos | November 2023, Paperback: 275 pages | By Matthew Ehret
As a young student of Math and Philosophy, I noted many unanswered questions I just didn’t have time or resources to explore further. These questions were swept aside to focus on learning the proscribed materials provided by the university. Decades passed since that time and now I have the grand opportunity to revisit many of these inconsistencies and counter-patterns that stuck in my mind like a splinter:
“You’ve felt it your entire life, that there’s something wrong with the world. You don’t know what it is, but it’s there, like a splinter in your mind, driving you mad.” – Morpheus (from The Matrix).
Matt’s treatment of the ‘Leibniz–Newton calculus controversy’ was enlightening and helpful: As a young math student, I often wondered why Newton got all the credit. I also enjoyed understanding the roots of our current science can be traced back to Aristotle and why Plato would have been the better choice.
Matt makes many references to Plato’s Timaeus and Critias. My first instinct was to save time and read or listen to established ‘scholars’ opinions on this piece, but I am thankful I read it afresh –trusting myself– without peering through the lenses and guidance of established ‘experts’. I also skipped the introduction after reading some 20 pages which turned out to be a great decision. The dialogue starts to gain some traction at ‘3. Prelude’. The distinction between being and becoming; the world has come into being as a likeness of eternal being; our account of it can therefore be no more than ‘likely’.) TIMAEUS: We must in my opinion begin by making the following distinctions. What is that which always is, and has no becoming, and what is that which is always becoming but never in any way is?”
Matt also exposes the anthropogenic climate change fiction brilliantly and concisely in Chapter 8.
Sit back and enjoy as Matt exposes the reader to a deeper understanding of our history, art, science, philosophy and geopolitics; and how they have worked together to create today’s World of Chaos. -db
Back cover:
“Matthew’s book is a fascinating journey that navigates the evolution of science and soul; science and soul as seen through the eyes and works of the many creative and destructive facets of man himself.” – Jessica Rose, PhD
“Matt Ehret manages to provide a systematic overhaul of basic foundations for the concept of Science as a constructive force for the good of humanity, unshackling it from the political use as a ‘Science of Limits’, Science Unshackled will open your eyes to help you in connecting the dots.” –Uwe Alschner, PhD
“This book should be of interest of anyone willing to know about the clashes of worldviews, different paradigms in science and in society in general. Even if you do not agree with all of Ehret’s points of view, this work will make you reflect about most of modern science, to question what appears of the media and in the textbooks. You can become a more critical thinker, which is one of the important things a good book can bring about.” –Andre Koch Torres Assis PhD
“Science Unshackled is a work of universal importance that can inspire a renaissance in our approach not only to science but to economics, politics, and education.” – Richard C. Cook (former U.S. government analyst, NASA whistleblower and author, Our Country, then and Now
“I encourage people to read this book, and take advantage of each of the chapters to do their own research, and begin their own discoveries.” –John Plaice, PhD
“ This book leaves me with a brand new way to look at, understand and think about science – a new worldview.” -Tanyss Munro, PhD
“The book weaves together concepts which have been systematically compartmentalized: math, science, history, philosophy and art, by a ruling class which has no love for humanity. Ehret thoroughly exposes the corruption of science, and offers an introduction to a holistic outlook with potential to unshackle the mind.” –Fox green (Founder of Space Commune)
