LOL, that's all you read is non-fiction. Unless of course you are saying that science is absolute ???

I read fiction sometimes, rarely, I don't find I gain much from it. Gravity's rainbow was awesome, and some other classics as well. I like Lem oddly enough.

Science is simply a way of gathering information. It's a third person enterprise that brackets out much of experience.

Youre a big humanities guy are ya?

Read Cryptonomicon by Neal Stephenson.

If you enjoy that, it will unlock an additional 4000 or so pages of awesomeness that follow.

You can make sense out of Gravity's Rainbow?

It's a masterpiece to be honest. Another one I liked is foucaults pendulum. Only book I ever found impenetrable no matter how much I tried by Joyce's finnegan's wake. I think it's moronic and ultra boring.

I will start reading it again today. It was a "stream of consciousness" writing style I believe with no structure or editing.

I believe Narcosis was abusing psychedelic drugs while he read that book. You may want to hammer back some shrooms and a few tokes before engaging in the material.

It's been about 20 years since I have read it.

It's a bit of that with some complex layering and a lot of random information, formulas and side text.
I think you need to really engage your imagination while reading it otherwise it becomes dry and meandering. It's worth the struggle and very rewarding.

"Don’t send any money for daycare because the United States can’t take care of daycare, that has to be up to a state. We can’t take care of daycare. . . . We’re fighting wars, we can’t take care of daycare. You gotta let a state take care of daycare, and they should pay for it, too. . . . It’s not possible for us to take care of daycare, Medicaid, Medicare, all these individual things."
