Change will be armed by nationalism all the civil war coming up in todays going underground but 1st on wednesdays show we interviewed the chief executive of britains kings fund richard mari he said he believes that failures of the 2012 tory health and social care act have been highlighted by the british response to coronavirus i then asked him this because you were at mckinsey did you see any understanding or consciousness of these kinds of problems ahead of time given that of course it was the gordon brown government that commissioned a mckinsey report that is widely seen as the beginning of the 20th 12 health and social care act i was at the can see long before that so i was back in the department of health by the time of the Gordon Brown Administration so i dont think. The kids he was very influential on the approach taken by Andrew Lansley hed written up his plans many many years before in response to these. Allegations mckinsey and company referred us to this statement which says
Cutting edge science and show how they are relevant to our understanding of who we are where we came from what we might be doing the motivation for our behavior and what may happen in the very far future and you say that death is a very specific and whole empowering. For you and for all of us and for Quantum Mechanics we have well certainly when you realize that we are the singular species on the planet that knows about our own impermanence knows about our own mortality you recognize that it is a powerful force in driving behaviors that we humans execute and what i do in the book is id juxtapose that realization of our own impermanence with the realization of science that the universe is impermanent so theres a wonderful interplay and reflection between the cosmic version of this idea and the human version of this idea that people may think they know what entropy is maybe maybe some of yours wouldnt you seem to say entropy is a key to our and it is of daily life and the unit absolutely
Meantime were screening somebody a favorite episodes of the so far coming up in this show with a Global Pandemic weighing heavily on the mind of the only animal in the known universe aware of its own mortality humans we are the theoretical physicist who helped bring string theory of the multiverse into the public eye professor brian greene about what we can learn about our deaths from the ever present called mchales that could imminently destroy our reality plus why is modern physics like magic why is human consciousness cosmically in call brands of all and his freewill just a man made construct in a reality based on probability all this more coming up in todays going underground lets not go straight to professor brian greene of Columbia University whose book until the end of time mind matter in our search for meaning in an evolving universe is out brian welcome to going underground we dont have until the end of time obviously to talk about his book but we could talk for ages i know ev
Were screening somebody a favorite episodes of the sofa coming up in this show with a Global Pandemic weighing heavily on the mind of the only animal in the known universe aware of its own mortality humans we are the theoretical physicist who helped bring string theory in the multiverse into the public eye professor brian greene about what we can learn about our debts from the ever present cosmic chaos that could imminently destroy our reality plus why is modern physics like magic why is human consciousness cosmically income preventable and his free will just a man made construct in a reality based on probability all this more coming up in todays going underground lets not go straight to professor brian greene of Columbia University whose book until the end of time mind matter enough search for meaning in an evolving universe is out there brian welcome to going underground we dont have until the end of time obviously to talk about his book but we could talk for ages i know every interv
Is human consciousness cosmically in called preventable and his free will just a manmade construct in a reality based on probability all this more coming up in todays going underground lets not go straight to professor brian greene of Columbia University whose book until the end of time mind matter enough search for meaning in an evolving universe is out brian welcome to going underground we dont have until the end of time obviously to talk about his book but we could talk for ages i know every individual say that they read the elegant universe the fabric of the cause mostly in reality. This may consolidate some of those ideas but it is very different only about why death and should be yeah is the beginning of the book yes im a previous books are really about explaining cutting edge science and bring it out in an accessible language this book is more about trying to take the ideas of cutting edge science and show how they are relevant to our understanding of who we are where we came fr
