Logic For Dummies by Mark Zagarelli
Logic for Dummies by Mark Zagarelli is a book that goes into depth about the main types of logic and how they are applied in divergent conundrums. The book covers formal logic, syllogisms, writing proofs, Boolean logic, and other integral logic concepts. Logic for Dummies presents the information in an easy to read and understand format. I recommend this book to anyone who is studying or is interested in logic and its many axioms and intricacies.

Human Intellectual Advancement
I have currently read two articles that provide theorems on the future state of humans. The two article differ in the perspective range of this topic. One of the articles proposes that computers will surpass human intelligence and end the existence and/or dominance of humanity. The disparate article stated that humans will still dominate with better perceptions. My stance on the topic is I believe that technology will dominate the human life but I also believe that because of computers that epitomize human intelligence humans can gain higher sensory perceptions and receive information at a more rapid pace. In correlation to the previous statement because of ultra intelligent and sensory computers the quality of human life intellectually and health-wise can be improved.
Online Article from TIME Magazine "2045: The Year Man Becomes Immortal"
I recently read this article online from TIME Magazine about the future advancements of computers that surpass human intelligence. Link:

The Science of Mechanics by Dr. Ernst Mach
The Science of Mechanics by Dr. Ernst Mach is a wildly accepted and a quintessential, intellectual, and scientific work that explores the inner workings and the axioms of science. I recommend this book to anyone who is heavily interested in science or who wants to explore its axioms.

The Political Mind: Why You Can't Understand 21st- Century American Politics with an 18th- Century Brain by George Lakoff
The Political Mind: Why You Can't Understand 21st- Century American Politics with an 18th- Century Brain by George Lakoff is a book that explores politics and its correlation to humans from a scientific and/or cognitive perspective. By reading the synopsis of the book I found the book interesting and would recommend it to anyone who would also find this book interesting or who likes politics.

Complexity and Simplicity
In the previous post I expressed my perceptions and conceptions towards science as a whole. This post is a continuation of its predecessor in terms of expressing what I think is the correlation and intertwining nature between complexity and simplicity in terms of intellectual forms as a whole. I think complexity and simplicity intellectually, are interwoven concepts that feed off the characteristics of one concept to create another one. Complexity and simplicity are two quantities and/or entities that are at both ends of a spectrum in which there is a medium between the two seemingly contrasting concepts. I assume complexity and simplicity come together when a ostensibly simple or simple-worded/processed concept actually holds a complex meaning. Complexity and simplicity also interact when a complex concept holds a simple meaning. Profound interpretations and progressions in my opinion form out of the bonding of complexity and simplicity. Complexity and simplicity both hold an aesthetic and disciplinary eminence.
