  Wiley Brooks - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Wiley Brooks is a breatharian, and founder of the Breatharian Institute of America.
Wiley has stopped teaching in recent years, so he can "devote 100% of his time on solving the problem as to why he needed to eat some type of food to keep his physical body alive and allow his (5D) light body to manifest completely." [1] This comes after much controversy over the years.
Brooks had previously stated that his fee for teaching others how to avoid food and water altogether is $5,000; however, as of June 2006 Brooks' website states that Brooks will personally select up to 5 billionaires to receive his training in exchange for a nonrefundable $1 million advance fee.

 Taking Evolutionary Transitions Seriously
Brooks and Wiley (1988; Brooks, 2000, 2001) suggested that evolution is caused by the entropic increase in biological information within genetic (more properly ‘inheritance systems’: Jablonka and Lamb, 1995) phase space constrained historically, due to both internal (nature of the organism, or ‘text’) and external (nature of the conditions, or ‘context’) factors.
Brooks and Wiley (1988) proposed that cohesive properties, ranging from molecular affinities to cell-cell adhesion to genetic compatibility, mate recognition, and genealogy, are analogous to inertia in physical systems, and are essential in allowing the emergence and persistence of macroscopic properties.
Brooks and Wiley (1988) thus proposed that the cohesive nature of sex was a critical part of resolving the dilemma of the ‘cost of sex’.

Wiley has been a Breatharian for some 30 years and has been giving seminars and teaching his intrinsically learned philosophy for over 20 of those years.

Although Wiley is now 70 years of age he is still able to lift 600 to 900 lbs of weight without ever working out.

 Wiley Brooks' brand of Breatharianism
Brooks, who was 50 years old at the time, came to Hawaii in 1983 to give a talk and then a 3-day seminar.
Wiley admits that everybody is not going to be a breatharian, and that most people aren't even interested.
Wiley says: "Life comes only from life, and there is only one source of life, which is God." But he says "these liquids and solids, which we call food, do not give us life, or health, or beauty," as we are programmed to believe by the food industry.

 Evolution in the Information Age:
Brooks and Wiley (1988) felt that evolution does not result from an extreme TS perspective nor from an extreme BM perspective, but from an interaction between a self-organized biological system (a BM component) and an organized environment (a TS component), each with their own "rules" of behavior.
Nonetheless, most of the emphasis by Brooks and Wiley (1988) was on developing an understanding of the genealogical component of biological systems, leaving the impression that their proposal was an extreme BM stance.
Brooks and Wiley (1986, 1988) examined different kinds of biological processes that show direction in time, growth and increasing complexity, coupled variation and constraint, and hierarchical and self-organization, to see if there were any underlying generalities.

Brooks and Wiley, 1988, argue that in the case of biological information, the shared abstraction analogies are strong enough to accept HIT entropy as physical entropy.
Additionally, suitable economic and cultural forms of "entropy" presumably need to be added to the picture—but the biological systems within which economies function (or fail to be functional) fall in the arena of evolutionary ecology, and this is the domain of the entropy concept into which an economic entropy concept should be fitted.

The axiomatic behavior of living systems should be increasing complexity and self-organization *as a result of, not at the expense of*, increasing entropy." Brooks and Wiley sum up their opinion of the current state of the neo-Darwinian synthesis (with the caveat that they believe no such synthesis actually exists).
We will now examine these shortcomings in some detail." "Statistical entropy of a simple system may be given as: S = k ln omega where omega is the set of accessible microstates to the system (the "macrostate")." "We suggest an alternative theoretical framework for biological evolution, based on four principles: 1.
Unlike many other sources that seek to find a link between EMTs and entropy (usually to attempt to show a contradiction), Brooks and Wiley use quite a lot of math in order to push their thesis.
