This book takes the reader on a journey through the fascinating world of science, exploring the history of the philosophical concept of the atom, the shape of atoms and the address of electrons, through the history, philosophy, and science of atoms, nuclei, and the universe. From the ancient sages who pondered the nature of atoms to the modern-day physicists who use quantum mechanics to explain the world around us, this book explores the many facets of the fascinating quantum realm.

The reader will learn about the different types of bonding, including metallic, covalent, ionic, and coordinate bonding. The book also delves into the society of the periodic table, where similar elements live together, and the core of the building, the nucleus. The book delves into the probabilistic world of atoms, where electrons exist as probability waves until they are observed.
The book then explores the world of quantum mechanics, discussing the fundamental forces of the universe and the mysteries of gravity, black holes, and wormholes. The author delves into the theories of special and general relativity, as well as experiments that have proven these theories correct.

The role of consciousness and the double-slit experiment is discussed, as well as the idea that the future is not predetermined and the concept of quantum entanglement. The book also delves into the many-worlds interpretation and the idea of unification, leading to the ultimate quest for the theory of everything.

In addition to exploring the world of science, the book also touches on the role of consciousness and biocentrism, questioning whether the egg or the hen came first. Vedanta philosophy is used to provide answers to some of the biggest questions in science and life.

Overall, Building Blocks of the Universe is a fascinating and insightful read, exploring the complex world of science and philosophy in an easy-to-understand manner.
