«[A] heady mix of history, philosophy and cutting-edge theory that is fascinating, provocative ... stimulating and engrossing.»
Wall Street Journal
«The history is thoroughly researched, the physics is cutting edge and Päs's larger point resonates: much, or maybe all, of what we take for reality is an artifact of our limited perspectives.»
Scientific American
"It has always been the dream of philosophers to have all matter built up from one fundamental type of particle," said Paul Dirac in 1930. With expert guidance from Heinrich Päs, in The One we glimpse the scale and grandeur of the dream in one of its modern forms: everything is quantum information.
Jim Baggott, author of Atomic and Quantum Reality
«Usually we say the universe is made of particles, but Päs shows how quantum physics inverts that. The whole comes first, not the parts - the parts come from fragmenting the whole. I'll never see reality the same way again!»
George Musser, author of Spooky Action at a Distance
«Are we one with the universe? It is a question as old as mankind ... But Päs is ready for the challenge and delivers an original and fresh account of both the history and the science of monism. An enticing read for those who seek to understand their place in nature - and who does not?»
Sabine Hossenfelder, physicist and author of Existential Physics
