David Deutsch's 'The Beginning of Infinity' ventures boldly into the realms of knowledge, presenting a compelling argument on the role of explanations in the universe. The author, a pioneer in quantum computation, contends that the pursuit of improved explanations is not only central to science but to all human endeavors. This book expands upon the interconnectedness of evolution, quantum physics, knowledge, and computation introduced in Deutsch's earlier work 'The Fabric of Reality.' The ambitiously wide-ranging topics addressed include creativity, free will, the future of humanity, and the evolution of culture. Deutsch offers profound insights on human choice, progress, and the potential of knowledge, suggesting an infinite scope for understanding within the physical laws of our universe.
