The Evolving Receiver

Riemann, Quantum Science, and Evolution

This book steps through the mirror left standing at the end of Brain / Universe · Universe / Brain. It asks what happens when the Riemann substrate is no longer treated as a fluid field but as the selective pressure that shaped living tissue, cultural tools, and the cognitive aperture we call a self.
