Paperback. Condición: new. Paperback. How to Move On: An Unfinished Memoir of Loss, Love, and Surviving Your Family is Joel Yanofsky' s final, deeply personal work- an unfinished yet profoundly moving meditation on grief, love, and the complexities of family. Known for his wit and insight, Yanofsky grapples with the loss of his beloved sisters and parents, all while navigating the joys and challenges of marriage, fatherhood, and a writing life.This posthumously completed book, pieced together by close friends and literary collaborators Bryan Demchinsky and Elaine Kalman Naves, expands on the themes explored in Bad Animals, his acclaimed memoir about raising his autistic son. Here, Yanofsky turns inward, confronting the weight of cumulative loss while celebrating the enduring bonds of love. With self-deprecating humor and keen eye, he finds meaning in the rituals of mourning, the absurdities of everyday life, and the unspoken tensions within families.At once tender and sharp, How to Move On is a poignant book about death, yes, but it is equally a book about life- its messiness, its unpredictability, and the people who make it worth living.

Paperback. Condición: new. Paperback. An exploration of the scientific limits of knowledge that challenges our deep-seated beliefs about our universe, our rationality, and ourselves.Many books explain what is known about the universe. This book investigates what cannot be known. Rather than exploring the amazing facts that science, mathematics, and reason have revealed to us, this work studies what science, mathematics, and reason tell us cannot be revealed. In The Outer Limits of Reason, Noson Yanofsky considers what cannot be predicted, described, or known, and what will never be understood. He discusses the limitations of computers, physics, logic, and our own thought processes.Yanofsky describes simple tasks that would take computers trillions of centuries to complete and other problems that computers can never solve; perfectly formed English sentences that make no sense; different levels of infinity; the bizarre world of the quantum; the relevance of relativity theory; the causes of chaos theory; math problems that cannot be solved by normal means; and statements that are true but cannot be proven. He explains the limitations of our intuitions about the world-our ideas about space, time, and motion, and the complex relationship between the knower and the known.Moving from the concrete to the abstract, from problems of everyday language to straightforward philosophical questions to the formalities of physics and mathematics, Yanofsky demonstrates a myriad of unsolvable problems and paradoxes. Exploring the various limitations of our knowledge, he shows that many of these limitations have a similar pattern and that by investigating these patterns, we can better understand the structure and limitations of reason itself. Yanofsky even attempts to look beyond the borders of reason to see what, if anything, is out there.This exploration of the scientific limits of knowledge challenges our deep-seated beliefs about our universe, our rationality, and ourselves."A must-read for anyone studying information science." -Publishers Weekly, starred reviewMany books explain what is known about the universe.
