In Infinity and the Mind, Rudy Rucker leads on excursion to that stretch of the universe he calls the ``Mindscape``, where he explores infinity in all its forms: potential and actual, mathematical and physical, theological and mundane. Rucker acquaints us with Gödel`s rotating universe, in which it is theoretically possible to travel into the past, and explains an interpretation of quantum mechanics in which billions of parallel worlds are produced every microsecond. It is in the realm of infinity, he maintains, that mathematics, science, and logic merge with the fantastic. By closely examining the paradoxes that arise from this merging, we can learn a great deal about the human mind, its powers, and its limitations.
``Rudy Rucker`s Infinity and the Mind is a terrific study with real mathematical depth.``
