Scientists tell us that ninety-six percent of the universe is unexplained dark matter and dark energy. Also, they admit that no unifying "theory of everything" exists in physics. This shaky foundation is the basis of modern thinking about the cosmos and Earth's place in it. Something big seems to be missing.  Thus, we're left with no choice but to question the "consensus" cosmological model. Are we really flying through space on a spinning ball within an expanding universe, while free-falling around the Sun--all as a consequence of a "Big Bang" that supposedly occurred 13.8 billion years ago? And do we really occupy no special place in the cosmos, while living out random and fundamentally meaningless existences? Or are there problems with this scientific worldview? Mark Gober's An End to the Upside Down Cosmos  deconstructs these commonly held beliefs, revealing their many shocking flaws and inconsistencies. Although he doesn't claim to provide definitive answers, sometimes arriving at what's not  true is just as valuable.  A word of caution: you may never think about your existence--or where you live--in the same way after listening to this book! Mark Gober is an author whose worldview was turned upside down in late 2016 when he was exposed to world-changing science. This science suggested that contrary to mainstream assumptions, consciousness is not produced by the brain. After researching extensively, he wrote An End to Upside Down Thinking to introduce the general public to these cutting-edge ideas--all in an effort to encourage a much-needed global shift in scientific and existential thinking. Mark is a senior member of Sherpa Technology Group in Silicon Valley, a firm that advises technology companies on mergers and acquisitions and strategy. He previously worked as an investment banking analyst in New York. Mark has been quoted for his opinions on business and technology matters in Bloomberg Businessweek and elsewhere, and he has authored internationally published business articles. He graduated magna cum laude from Princeton University, where he was captain of the tennis team.
