MEMORY is the latest of the INFINITE DIMENSIONS series of theme-based science fiction/fantasy anthologies — a collection of seven tales exploring new ideas around the concept of memory, and how it shapes our past, present and future.
Asteroid XXII by Mackenzie Reide: Welcome to the future among the stars, where the survival of you and your crew depends upon a space station that may literally be losing its mind.
Blank by Michael Ben-Zvi: In the near future, a woman discovers if removing a piece of herself can restore the past, or at least the past she wants.
Level 4 by Michelle A. Belgrave: An experienced professional lives in a society where a comfortable life is aided by technology, but breaking the rules can lead to the loss of one's identity.
Dream Time by Paul Smith: One man's decision leads to a punishment that threatens to blur the lines of justice and truth.
Post Epiq by Jennifer Graham: An amnesiac struggles to determine which reality is real and makes a decision that will change her life forever.
Sister, Sister by Shirley Chan: The history of a person, even the most famous, is not always what is remembered.
You Are Music by Steven L. Rosenhaus: A composer creates his greatest masterpiece, only to learn how much of us truly lives on through art and the memories of loved ones.
In a time where truth is too easily forgotten, memory remains an essential part of our lives. Because among the infinite dimensions, the memories you hold dear might be the most crucial tools you have to build a better future.

This volume covers the philosophical, historical, religious, and interpretative aspects of the ancient Guodian bamboo manuscripts (郭店楚簡) which were disentombed in the Guodian Village in Hubei Province, China, in 1993. Considered to be the Chinese equivalent of the Dead Sea Scrolls, these manuscripts are archaeological finds whose importance cannot be underestimated. Many of the texts are without counterparts in the transmitted tradition, and they provide unique insights into the developments of Chinese philosophy in the period between the death of Confucius (551-479 BCE) and the writings of Mencius (c.372-289 BCE), and beyond. Divided into two parts, the book first provides inter-textual contexts and backgrounds of the Guodian manuscripts. The second part covers the main concepts and arguments in the Guodian texts, including cosmology and metaphysics, political philosophy, moral psychology, and theory of human nature. The thematic essays serve as an introduction to the philosophical significance and the key philosophical concepts/thought of each text contained in the Guodian corpus. Each chapter has a section on the implications of the texts for the received tradition, or for the purpose of comparing some of the text(s) with the received tradition in terms of the key philosophical concepts as well as the reading and interpretation of the texts. The volume covers most of the texts inscribed on the 800-odd slips of the Guodian corpus dated to the fourth century BCE. - E-bokEngelska, 2019
