Blending scientific insight with lyrical storytelling, the series bridges cosmology and consciousness, physics and feeling, the known and the intuited.From the journey of a single photon to the deep memory of stone and the sacrifice of fire, these memoirs explore what it means to become, to persist, and to belong to a universe in motion.Perfect for readers of science-inspired literature, reflective nonfiction, and anyone seeking a deeper connection with the elemental world.
