Metaphysical foundations of physics and humanities: fundamental physics. Problems of consciousness

The book of the famous domestic theoretical physicist V. D. Zakharov presents his works dedicated to the metaphysical analysis of the foundations of fundamental physics, the philosophy itself, religion, history, nature of consciousness, as well as the humanities. The book consists of four parts.

The sections of the first part set out the author’s metaphysical approach to the description of the physical universe.

In the sections of the second part, the inextricable unity of studies of the foundations of physics and metaphysics is shown. Particular attention is paid to the discussion of the content and problems of the general theory of relativity, in particular cosmology and the role of reference systems in the theory of gravity.

In the third part, from the standpoint of metaphysics, the role of consciousness in quantum mechanics is discussed and vice versa - the role of quantum mechanics in the structure of consciousness.

In the sections of the fourth part, the author’s view of the archetypes of literature in the works of Shakespeare, Pushkin, Dostoevsky and other great writers is presented. The book is recommended for both professional physicists, philosophers, literary critics, and a wide circle of readers interested in the foundations of our ideas about the universe.
