Speech distinguishes the human species from the other inanimate, vegetative, and animate parts of nature, and it earns us the title of “speaking beings.” All of our communication has developed through speech, words, language, and writing. When we examine evolution…
Why did language evolve in human society? What was it meant to complete? Also, why are people today increasingly unable to understand one another? All of nature is founded on a basic driving force, the desire to exist well, to…
How much is our communication influenced by our sensory system? What exists around us now that we do not feel? Trackers are highly skilled individuals who are trained to read subtle signs in the environment. They can detect footprints, disturbances…
In order to improve our lives and protect ourselves from threats, it is important to deeply understand the system in which we exist. What forces operate in it? How are they managed? What influences us from the inside and from…

The following is a statement by Apple co-founder, Steve Wozniak: “When we started Apple, Steve Jobs and I talked about how we wanted to make blind people as equal and capable as sighted people, and you’d have to say we succeeded when…
Today scientists are excited about new tools, such as molecular scissors, that can cut defective genes and remove hereditary problems. They believe this could prevent illness and even change a person’s character. But I believe we must approach this with…
There is no death, but it has nothing to do with the first law of thermodynamics. Life itself is not a matter of energy transfer. What we call life—our existence, experiences, thoughts, and feelings—does not stem from physical energy. It…
Dr. Yeshayahu Rubinstein, an Israeli scientist, made an intriguing discovery about DNA. He found that the sulfur bonds between the base pairs of genetic material follow a repeating pattern: 10, 5, 6, 5, which correspond to the numeric value of…
Physicist Michio Kaku envisions a future where technology propels humanity toward a “super-future,” with devices and machines designed to improve our lives. In theory, this sounds promising. Imagine distributing devices to everyone that, instead of distracting or isolating us like…
Scientists have discovered that when people spend significant time together, their brain activity can become remarkably similar—sometimes nearly identical. In such cases, the two brains begin to function in synchrony. For example, after two weeks of watching the same movies, reading the…
It was since the time of Aristotle and Plato. They had warned that science should not enter the hands of the ignorant under any circumstances, as they would misuse and sell it to the wealthy. As a result, we ended…
