This monograph addresses scholars and the general and
critical-thinking public who would like to comprehend the logical mechanics of
the physical body and also to understand the meaning and limit of scientific
growth and cosmic acceleration within the physical universe. Starting with
Zeno's and Aristotle's problem of motion, "The Infinite In Act" poses
and answers the following fundamental questions about the real physical body
endowed with continuous motion. The physical body, which we number by the real
1, designates the physical universe and any being of the physical universe. -
Assuming that continuous motion is a real property of the physical body, what
then is its founding principle? - What is the geometry of the physical body
endowed with continuous motion? - Why is it that science grounded in our
finite, analytic, particular perception of things and employing the analytic
paradigm for knowing the object, can tell us nothing about the physical body
and its founding principle? - What kind of science and what kind of cognitive
faculties and organizing principles must we have in order to know the physical
body and its founding principle? - Does knowledge of the real physical body
liberate us from evil, whose diverse aspects are ignorance, suffering, injustice
and death? - Can we think of our cosmic acceleration as the realization of the
supreme good, which is our liberation from evil? - Where is the place (topos)
of the supreme good relative to us here and now taken as the center of the
physical universe?
