It poses a profound question: Does this process create an illusion concealing the true nature of reality itself?

Within this ambitious literary endeavor, the author masterfully assembles an exceptional ensemble of characters, featuring luminaries such as Socrates, Leonardo da Vinci, Albert Einstein, and Stephen Hawking.

By employing the same method of questioning and answering perfected by Socrates in classical Greece, the author guides us through the perplexing realm of modern theoretical physics. At this intersection of relativity, quantum theory, and our role as observers, we confront the notion that our experience of reality is merely an illusion.

Kazden's multidisciplinary background and lifelong pursuit of the nature of perception and reality shine through the pages of "TotIs." Drawing inspiration from Taoist, Buddhist, and Hindu thought, shamanic practices, and the study of physics and cosmology, the author skillfully weaves together a tapestry of knowledge that challenges traditional notions of reality.
