Just like Richard P. Feynman, winner of the Nobel Prize in physics, who thrived on outrageous adventures. In this lively work that 'can shatter the stereotype of the stuffy scientist' (SUSP Science Foundation), Balungi unifies Quantum mechanics with Albert Einstein General Relativity theory in a remarkable way. This thought experimental book is a good introduction to quantum gravity and has a lot of interesting history about the development of the theory since 1899. It’s an informal introduction to a very difficult and doubtfully intelligible theory.- doubted even by its most ingenious contributors. The reader should expect that he/she will have to concentrate hard on what Balungi says but the rewards are significant. He is a talented physicist and a good writer. If you read it carefully and stop to think about the message as it unfolds then you will get a worthwhile if imperfect picture of what the theory is saying and how it was invented,It’s buried treasure and you will have to do some digging. It is a really serious attempt to do all that can be done in an informal style. Balungi explains and re-defines Einstein’s theory of general relativity, quantum mechanics, black holes, the complex architecture of the universe, elementary particles, gravity, and the nature of the mind. This wonderful and exciting book is optimal for physics graduate students and researchers. Not since Stephen W Hawking’s celebrated best-seller Brief History of Time or Carol Rovelli’s Reality is not what it seems ( The journey to quantum gravity) has physics been so vividly, intelligently and entertainingly revealed.

  • The Origin of Gravity and the laws of Physics

    Since it was developed, Newton’s law of gravitation and many other laws of physics cannot be derived from one grand underlying principle. Deriving Newton’s law of gravitation or Einstein general relativity theory, would mean that gravity emerges from something else and that would mean that the only known Newton’s law of universal gravity is no longer a fundamental law of physic...

    Since high school, I have been rebellious to how physics derivations are presented with difficult and confusing mathematical tools. I am not used to deriving physics laws using the same mathematical tools that our forefathers of physics used (the same found in various physics text books), which I find not only confusing to me but to the entire scientific community who are categ...

    In 1900, the British physicist Lord Kelvin declared "There is nothing new to discover in physics. All that remains is to more accurately measure its quantities" today, hardly anyone would dare say that our knowledge of the universe and everything in it is almost complete. There are still some deficiencies in the standard model of physics, such as the origin of mass, the strong ...
