A Guide to Persistence

A Guide to Persistence explores the idea that a single, recurring act of self-consistency underpins the many wonders of the universe, from particles to cosmic structures. Using plain language, vivid imagery, and storytelling, the book examines ten different scales of existence—such as atoms, stars, and the cosmic web—asking three key questions at each level. It invites curious listeners to see the universe as a harmonious, repeating sentence expressed across many scales, without relying on mathematics or technical jargon.
