Paper Summary:
Author Rudy Rucker has a way of explaining science and mathematics so that even the 'technology challenged' can usually get a grip on it. This paper shows that in his book, "Infinity and the Mind", Rucker explains "physical infinities" in a way that makes it simple for the layman to comprehend.From the Paper:
"Dante, Nicolas of Cusa, Bruno and Giordano all believed in the infinitude of space, and isn't it a fascinating note in science that Bruno was traveling around Europe and teaching his doctrine of the universe in the late 1580s? By mentioning Bruno's travels and lectures (and his dialogue of 1584, "On the Infinite Universe and Worlds"), Rucker helps readers understand that the theories that are out there on infinity are not only old, but still up for debate."More papers on "Infinity and the Mind":
