Science Unshackled | Restoring Causality in a World of Chaos

Posted October 21, 2024 – for those who read

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 the 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.  I also enjoyed understanding the roots of our current science can be traced all the way back to Aristotle and why Plato would have been the better choice.

Matt 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)

What Is (Almost) Everything Made Of?

Misc Musings on the surety of science or why I am skeptical of ‘Well-Established’ facts.

Math-for-Piano-PerformanceNewton’s 3 Laws of Motion were proven science for 100s of years and helped put a man on the moon and are still used today … only one problem: they are incorrect. Newton’s laws of motion, together with his law of gravitation, provide a useful basis for explaining the motion of everyday objects under everyday conditions. However, when applied to extremely high speeds or extremely small objects, Newton’s laws break down.

How about the Heisenberg Uncertainty Principle? It put a big crack down the middle of the well-behaved universe.

How about Zeno’s paradox Achilles and the tortoise? How about the a priori? The fallacy of logic: If A=B and B=C, then A=C, right? But the entire logic is based on an unexamined assumption of the IF which is the a priori which can never be proven.

How about the Precambrian explosion of life forms in the geologic record?

How about the three sets of laws that don’t agree? The big laws (Relativity), the medium laws (Newtonian) and the really small laws (Quantum). They are all correct except when they are not.

In ancient times mathematicians ran into a logical brick wall which no one could overcome. This had to do with the interplay of the linear, logical, discontinuous mind-set of the day –that many of us today still possess– and the reality of infinity. Corollaries to this conundrum would be the asymptote (y – 1/x), Zeno’s paradox or just trying to find the area under a curve for y = x^2 or y equals x squared.

The area of a square or rectangle is easy enough to determine. If the box is 4 ft. by 5 ft. you just multiply 4 X 5 and the area is 20 sq. ft. If however you want to determine the area under a curve defined for example by the equation of y = x^2 (Note: y is also called the function at x or f(x)), you can subdivide the area under the curve into smaller and smaller boxes but you can never determine the exact area under the curve because you can never make the boxes small enough since there are an infinite number of box sizes before you can get them small enough to determine the exact area under the curve.

The Calculus solved this problem by saying that the limit of f(x) is exactly = to the area as the change in x goes to zero. So, we never really get there, we just say that the limit or the point beyond which it can go is limited by the curve.

Mathematics…is man’s way of cutting up and compartmentalizing the world he is able to experience into digestible units and then describing relationships that seem to have some meaningful use. The result of this activity can produce useful understanding and some ability to control / manipulate our environment.

Science…I believe in the empirical method. I also believe that many in our scientific community have let their emotions and political point of view turn their science into a religion. You either believe certain “well-established facts” or you do not get tenure or you are ridiculed or…. These “well-established facts” represent a dogma or a credo similar to any religion. The result is that many place their minds in a box and their ability to take in new information and process this information critically and honestly is therefore necessarily aberrated.
