And is the fact that you, on the Earth—your very own self—are spinning—never mind if it’s largely or even a tad—something that just went right past your brain without any thought? Did your brain absorb the thought and start making pictures of it? Hold up flash cards to get your attention?
Why, no. I would be dizzy. I would know, wouldn’t I? What are my senses for if they can’t grasp even that simple fact?

“One of the most radiant-mind thinkers of our time, Margaret Ann Harrell, takes on all groundbreakers, from Euclid to Galileo to Newton to Descartes to Einstein to AI. She dives head first into quantum territory asking Why? Why? Why? in all the most brilliant, daring, direct, straightforward ways. Why? Because she’s curious, she wants to know. A sense of deep wonder permeates every page of NEWTON’S NOTEBOOKS FELL INTO WONDERLAND: Dialoguing with My Readers, The Consciousness Wizards and Adepts, yet another must read Margaret Ann Harrell masterpiece.
“Brilliantly hilarious! Cracks me up!”
—Ron Whitehead, U.S. National Lifetime Beat Poet Laureate
Newton’s Notebooks Fell into Wonderland deals with the quantum physics and relativity theory through the eyes of Loop Quantum Gravity, as laid out by Carlo Rovelli and Matt Strassler, funneled to the author seriously and investigatively. But not as a scientist. The questions these ideas raise—questions the universe raised—the exciting ways to think about this new territory if one is wild-eyed and speculative. And playful. In earnest. Willing to ask anything. And play with the answer, play with one’s own curiosity. To begin with, Strassler and Rovelli say space and time come into existence in action, in “happenings.” In INTERACTIONS.
Is that true? And what does it mean? All the ruckus that raises. Join with the author as she blasts her senses with questions they overlooked. Join her and do the same. You’ll encounter these questions together. Make “happenings” together. Fill some spacetime.
