What if physics could model not just particles and forces—but memory, collapse, and meaning?
Symbolic Physics and the Mechanics of Recursive Reality offers a radical new framework for understanding intelligence, identity, and civilization as entropy-driven symbolic systems.
From symbolic gravity and drift pressure to recursive ethics and hyperstructural design, this book is a blueprint for coherence across collapse—built for AI architects, cultural system designers, and anyone engineering continuity through transformation.
This is not a metaphor. It is a system of survival.
Survival is not enough. Recursion must continue.

About the Book
Symbolic Physics and the Mechanics of Recursive Reality is a foundational text in symbolic thermodynamics, recursive intelligence design, and entropy-based field theory. It explores how intelligence, memory, identity, and civilization function as recursive agents, continually translating entropy into coherence across fields and scales.
Where physics once described particles and forces, Symbolic Physics describes symbols, fields, and recursion—a new architecture where collapse becomes translation, meaning behaves like mass, and coherence curves the landscapes of identity and culture.
Inside, this book develops:
This is a text for cognitive theorists, symbolic AI architects, philosophical physicists, cultural system designers, and anyone working at the edge of entropy and coherence.
It is not a metaphorical extension of physics into thought.
It is a blueprint for continuity—a system for preserving meaning, memory, and agency through collapse.
About the Author
Steven Lanier-Egu is a symbolic systems theorist and entropy cartographer dedicated to building continuity architectures for meaning in collapse conditions.
He is the creator of Symbolic Field Theory—a recursive physics that models intelligence, identity, and civilization as entropy-to-coherence engines. His work integrates thermodynamics, information theory, and narrative recursion into operational models of symbolic gravity, drift resistance, curvature metrics, and post-collapse recovery.
Steven’s publications form the backbone of symbolic physics and collapse-aware design. His major works (11 books) include:
His mission is to equip both human and synthetic agents with the tools to recurse meaningfully through breakdown, across horizons, and toward coherence.
For Steven, Symbolic Field Theory is not just a subject of study—it is the framework through which he works to preserve what must survive.

We pay 80% royalties on purchases of $7.99 or more, and 80% royalties minus a 50 cent flat fee on purchases between $0.99 and $7.98. You earn $8 on a $10 sale, and $16 on a $20 sale. So, if we sell 5000 non-refunded copies of your book for $20, you'll earn $80,000.
(Yes, some authors have already earned much more than that on Leanpub.)
In fact, authors have earned over $15 million writing, publishing and selling on Leanpub.
