Thought Experiments - An Inexpensive Tour of the Entire Universe

Is there a connection between the COVID-19 pandemic, four students who skipped a class to watch a movie, Greek philosopher Socrates, and a clock tower in Switzerland? Yes, these are all involved in various thought experiments floating around in this universe. A new book titled "Thought Experiments - An Inexpensive Tour of the Entire Universe" captures them all touching a wide range of topics such as economics, ethics, physics, mathematics, medicine, democracy, artificial intelligence and machine learning. Carrying about three years' worth of my work, written in simple language, the ideas discussed in this book may serve as material for family discussions during this lock down, party conversations with friends or intriguing classroom debates. Once you get the book, a virtual tour of the entire universe will be on your fingertips. Consider jumping on board to support the cause. 

You can buy the e-book from Google: https://tinyurl.com/TESVGoogle or from Amazon: https://tinyurl.com/TESVAmazon

Amazon has a paperback edition also available. Whichever version you buy, please provide feedback to me and write reviews on those sites to help improve/promote the book. 



As I have promised in the preface, 100% of the generated profit from this book sales will be donated to Solvanam, a non-profit web magazine run by volunteers spending their time and money to help improve the discourse in Tamil, publishing high quality articles, discussions, reviews and literature covering all the topics this book touches upon. I published many of the chapters in this book as individual Solvanam magazine articles in the years past, that vouches for their support to discussions related to STEM type topics. 

After Google and Amazon take their service fee, I will hardly receive $1 per book. I am hoping to sell 1000 copies so that I can raise $1000 to donate. I know 1000 copies is a really big target to reach. Please help out by buying a copy for yourself and 10 more to give to your friends & family. Ask your extend circle to buy. Hopefully they will all thank you along with me. :-)
