This book presents the website exactphilosophy.net, as of 2017. Written by a Swiss physicist, it contains lots of beautiful novel ideas, inspired by nature and physics, ancient and modern philosophy, as well as by astrology, the I Ching and more... Please note that this book does not yet present these ideas in a way and format suitable for most readers. That will follow in other books by the same author. Instead, this book addresses anyone with a mind free enough to think outside of some of the usual ""boxes"", paired with imagination and also a more scientifically critical mind in the end, as implies the ""exact"" in exactphilosophy. In essence, first ""elements"" are tentatively defined from first principles, inspired mostly by Kant, then some correlations between these abstractly defined ""elements"" and the ancient Greek elements are revealed, as well as with the 8 trigrams of the Chinese I Ching, and more.

It provides up-to-date coverage of key aspects, including bronze age origins, references to women, excavated manuscripts, the canonical commentaries, cosmology, and the Yijing in modern China and the West.
This book presents the website exactphilosophy.net in 2019. Written by a Swiss physicist, it contains lots of beautiful novel ideas, inspired by nature and physics, ancient and modern philosophy, as well as by astrology, the I Ching and more... For the first time, this book compiles all web pages and articles in a single printed volume. A real treasure trove for anyone with a mind free enough to ?think outside the tesseract?, about philosophy, science, history, art, and a lot more. Most contributions are related to a new approach to ?elements?, tentatively defined from first principles related to space and time in immediate perception, inspired by Kant, but often going way beyond ancient Greek elements or the trigrams of the Chinese I Ching, considering also how astrology or telepathy could work in ways that would be astonishingly simple everyday physics, even though they would still be ?illusions? in a way. And there is more.

A novel of love and political upheaval, in which “Kathmandu is as specific and heartfelt as Joyce’s Dublin” (San Francisco Chronicle). In Buddha’s Orphans, Nepal’s political upheavals of the past century serve as a backdrop to the story of an orphan boy, Raja, and the girl he is fated to love, Nilu, a daughter of privilege. Their love scandalizes both of their families—and the novel takes readers across the globe and through several generations. This engrossing, unconventional love story explores the ways that events of the past, even those we are ignorant of, inevitably haunt the present. It is also a brilliant depiction of Nepali society from the Whiting Award–winning author ...
