Taking us on a journey through every fundamental field of science, as well as the history of civilization, art, moral values, and the theory of political institutions, Deutsch tracks how we form new explanations and drop bad ones, explaining the conditions under which progress--which he argues is potentially boundless--can and cannot happen. Hugely ambitious and highly original, \u003ci\u003eThe Beginning of Infinity\u003c\/i\u003e explores and establishes deep connections between the laws of nature, the human condition, knowledge, and the possibility for progress.\u003ch3\u003eAuthor Biography\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eBorn in Haifa, Israel, David Deutsch was educated at Cambridge and Oxford Universities. He is a Fellow of the Royal Society and a professor of physics at the University of Oxford, where he is a member of the Centre for Quantum Computation.
