John L. Casti, The One True Platonic Heaven: A Scientific Fiction of the Limits of Knowledge
Joseph Henry Press | ISBN 0309085470 | 2003 | PDF | 2.2 MB | 178 pages
This book is not a novel, but it is a work of fiction.Such a work, while containing elements of fiction, is more like a chronicle than a typical novel.The principal conflict explored here is the problem of the limits to scientific knowledge.
The logical limit to what we can know is explored here within the framework of the computer project promoted by John von Neumann at the Institute for Advanced Study in Princeton, NewJersey, shortly after the Second World War.As this story unfolds, a number of great thinkers from that period—Albert Einstein, J. Robert Oppenheimer,Wolfgang Pauli, HermannWeyl, and others— weigh in with their views.
