Die Sammlung umfasst sowohl veröffentlichte als auch unveröffentlichte Artikel von John Bell, die sich mit grundlegenden konzeptionellen und philosophischen Fragen der Quantenmechanik befassen. Zu den behandelten Themen gehören das Einstein-Podolsky-Rosen-Paradoxon und die Natur der Realität, illustriert durch Bertlmanns Socken. Bells Arbeiten sind entscheidend für das moderne Verständnis von Quantenkonzepten und deren Grenzen im Hinblick auf klassische Auffassungen von Raum, Zeit und Lokalität.
Time is all. A new cycle has begun. The Atlas Mountains in Morocco, present day: A Berber boy, Uyyub, falls asleep under a sacred tree and dreams the tree talks to him. Curious and intrigued, he returns, but this time the tree talks to him when he is not asleep. Together they travel through time, charting the course of the evolution of life on Earth with particular reference to his clan's genesis. Uyyub's sister, Thiyya, joins them to watch the dirty-dancing dinosaurs and ends up interacting with events at the meeting between man and superman. Belief, Sid, is close by on all occasions to guide the brother and sister towards the final meeting with Time himself. Our solar system is one of the several nurseries within the universe, devised by Time and his many personalities (the gang) to promote life and help staunch Time's ongoing boredom. The experiment on planet Earth is a miraculous success, giving rise to much speculation within Time's gang. It is, therefore, being closely monitored and so the illegal time travellers are soon discovered, prompting a race between Time, who is determined to put an end to this anomaly; and the sacred tree, equally determined to enlighten the children fully of their heritage. Who will win the race?

“A holistic vision breathtaking in scope.”—Frances Moore Lappé Distilling a lifetime’s insights on the triangle of healing emotional pain, social justice work, and spiritual growth, veteran activist and educator John Bell shares personal stories and reflective practices to help us on our path of personal and collective transformation Unbroken Wholeness brings an integrated lens of social justice, trauma healing, and spiritual practice to the work we do in the world and the pressing concerns of our times. Collectively, these writings help us access a view of the world as unbroken, even in the face of obvious suffering and disharmony. With searching questions and easy-to-follow practices, Unbroken Wholeness offers a way for activists to apply mindfulness and insight to bring about healing for seemingly intractable social divisions. “Skillfully handling our emotional pain about the world while cultivating a joyful and kind heart helps us navigate the troubled waters of our life,” says John Bell. Continuing the peace work of his teacher, the Vietnamese social activist and Zen master Thich Nhat Hanh, John Bell brings forward the importance of cultivating a practical yet visionary, ennobling view of humankind when engaging in the “mud” of daily difficulties that gives rise to the lotus of an enlightened, compassionate heart.
Die Übersetzung der englischen Originalausgabe 'Speakable and Unspeakable in Quantum Mechanics' enthält sowohl alle publizierten als auch unpublizierten Artikel John Bells über die konzeptionellen und philosophischen Probleme der Quantenmechanik wie z. B. 'Über das Einstein-Podolsky-Rosen-Paradoxon', 'Bertlmanns Socken und das Wesen der Realität' oder 'Sechs mögliche Welten der Quantenmechanik'. Für unser heutiges Verständnis von Quantenkonzepten und ihrer eingeschränkten Verwendbarkeit auf klassische Vorstellungen von Raum, Zeit und Lokalität haben seine Arbeiten eine herausragende Rolle gespielt. Nach einem kurzen Vorwort von John Bell erläutert Alain Aspect den gewaltigen Beitrag, den John Bell in der Quantenphilosophie geleistet hat.
