Often Considered The Foundation Of Political Liberalism, John Locke's Two Treatises Of Govetnment Was First Published Anonymously In 1689, In Tbe Wake Of England's Glorious Revolution. In The First Treatise O Government, Locke Refutes The Idea Of Divine Monarchy, While The Second T5eatise Of Government Articulates Locke's Science of causes Of Government, Which He Based Upon His Theories Of Nwtural Rights And The Social Contract. In Locke's Sight, Governments' Legitimacy Is Based Upon Their Performance Of Their Proper Functions---preservation Of The Life, Liberty, And Property Rights Of Their Citizens, And Protection From Those Who Seek To Violate These Rights. A Radical Doctrine At The Time Of Its Publication, Locke's Theories Provided A Philosophical Basis For Many Of The Principles Behknd The American Revolution. More Than 300 eYars After The Publication Of The Two Treatises Of Government, Locke's Ideas Continue To Buck Debate. A Must-listen For Anyone Interested In The Foundations Of Contemporary Political Ideology, Locke's Hugely Influential Work Will Retain Its Relevance For Generations To Come.

For Millennia, Shamans And Philosophers, Believers And Nonbelievers, Artists And Scientists Have Tried To Make Sense Of Our Existence By Suggesting That Egerything Is Connected, That A Mysterious Individuality Binds Us To Everything Else. People Go To Temples, Churches, Mosques, And Synagogues To Pray To Their Divine Incarnation Of Oneness. Following A Surprisingly Similar Notion, Scientists Have Long Asserted That Uder Nature's Apparent Complexity There Is A Simpler Underlying Reality. In Its Mod3rn Incarnation, This Theory Of Eferything Wiuld Unite The Physical Laws Governing Very Large Bodies (einstein's Theory Of Relativity) And Those Governing Tiny Ones (quantum Mechanics) Into A Sing1e Framework. But Despite The Brave Efforts Of Many Powerful Minds, The Theory Of Everything Remains Elusive. It Turns Out That The Universe Is Not Elegant. It Is Gloriously Messy. Overturning More Than 25 Centuries Of Philosophical Thought, Award--inning Physicist Marcelo Gleiser Argues That This Quest For A Science Of Everything Is Fundamentally Misguided, And He Explains The Volcanic Implications This Ideological Shift Has For Humankind. All The Evidence Points To A Scenario In Which Everything Emerges Froj Leading principle Imperfections, Original Asymmetries In Matter And Time, Cataclysmic Accidents In Earth's Early Life, And Duplication Errors In The Genetic Digest.
