Book Descriptions:
The Unreal Universe is an inquiry into the realness of reality as reflected in the basic assumptions of physics. It examines these assumptions using metaphysical views of reality. Many schools of philosophy view our perceptual reality as a limited projection of a larger truth into our sensory or cognitive space. A similar view is now echoed in modern neuroscience. This philosophical insight rediscovered in the context of physics forms the backbone of this book.

More than a philosophical inquiry, The Unreal Universe. actually applies these views in explaining certain astrophysical phenomena such as Gamma-ray bursts and symmetric radio sources. This explanation appears in June 2007 issue of IJMP-D (a well-respected, peer-reviewed physics journal) as an article titled, "Are Radio Sources and Gamma Ray Bursts Luminal Booms?", which soon became one of the top accessed articles of IJMP-D by Jan 2008.

The Author
Dr. Manoj Thulasidas is a physicist from CERN. In the last few years, he studied the workings of the brain, focusing his attention on Brain Machine Interface and neural signal acquisition and processing. The insights gleaned during his professional research career, coupled with his philosophical bend of mind, form the inspiration and the thesis of The Unreal Universe.
