The main idea is to treat the representation of a fact of the external world as a received message. By assuming exact correspondence between the fact and its representation one arrives a general law of physics, a Law of Laws, one that yields both known and new laws governing the behavior of the quantum micro-world and the universe at large. Moreover, the laws so obtained are true by definition. Hence the Principle of True Representation: the laws of physics derive from the unification of appearance and reality. The present volume erases the boundaries between physics, metaphysics and neuroscience and should attract the attention of a broad spectrum of workers seeking to view fundamental problems in a new light.…
