Dear Dr. Elliot McGucken:

I am an old physician, and I don't know nothing of mathematics and almost nothing of physics, but after the common people physic discipline is the one that uses more the so called "time" than any other. After I read what you think of today physics, I think my essay can land real physics down to earth.

I am sending you a practical summary, so you can easy decide if you read or not my essay "The deep nature of reality".

I am convince you would be interested in reading it. ( most people don't understand it, and is not just because of my bad English).

Hawking in "A brief history of time" where he said , "Which is the nature of time?" yes he don't know what time is, and also continue saying............Some day this answer could seem to us "obvious", as much than that the earth rotate around the sun....." In fact the answer is "obvious", but how he could say that, if he didn't know what's time? In fact he is predicting that is going to be an answer, and that this one will be "obvious", I think that with this adjective, he is implying: simple and easy to understand. Maybe he felt it and couldn't explain it with words. We have anthropologic proves that man measure "time" since more than 30.000 years ago, much, much later came science, mathematics and physics that learn to measure "time" from primitive men, adopted the idea and the systems of measurement, but also acquired the incognita of the experimental "time" meaning. Out of common use physics is the science that needs and use more the measurement of what everybody calls "time" and the discipline came to believe it as their own. I always said that to understand the "time" experimental meaning there is not need to know mathematics or physics, as the "time" creators and users didn't. Instead of my opinion I would give Einstein's "Ideas and Opinions" pg. 354 "Space, time, and event, are free creations of human intelligence, tools of thought" he use to call them pre-scientific concepts from which mankind forgot its meanings, he never wrote a whole page about "time" he also use to evade the use of the word, in general relativity when he refer how gravitational force and speed affect "time", he does not use the word "time" instead he would say, speed and gravitational force slows clock movement or "motion", instead of saying that slows "time". FQXi member Andreas Albrecht said that. When asked the question, "What is time?", Einstein gave a pragmatic response: "Time," he said, "is what clocks measure and nothing more." He knew that "time" was a man creation, but he didn't know what man is measuring with the clock.

I insist, that for "measuring motion" we should always and only use a unique: "constant" or "uniform" "motion" to measure "no constant motions" "which integrates and form part of every change and transformation in every physical thing. Why? because is the only kind of "motion" whose characteristics allow it, to be divided in equal parts as Egyptians and Sumerians did it, giving born to "motion fractions", which I call "motion units" as hours, minutes and seconds. "Motion" which is the real thing, was always hide behind time, and covert by its shadow, it was hide in front everybody eyes, during at least two millenniums at hand of almost everybody. Which is the difference in physics between using the so-called time or using "motion"?, time just has been used to measure the "duration" of different phenomena, why only for that? Because it was impossible for physicists to relate a mysterious time with the rest of the physical elements of known characteristics, without knowing what time is and which its physical characteristics were. On the other hand "motion" is not something mysterious, it is a quality or physical property of all things, and can be related with all of them, this is a huge difference especially for theoretical physics I believe. I as a physician with this find I was able to do quite a few things. I imagine a physicist with this can make marvelous things.

With my best whishes

Dear Dr. Elliot. Hello, and apologies if this does not apply to you. I have read and rated your essay and about 50 others. If you have not read, or did not rate my essay The Cloud of Unknowing please consider doing so. With best wishes.

Dear Dr. Elliot McGucken,

I am a decrepit old realist and I do hope that you will not think me impertinent. You wrote about FQXi "...the only thing with consistent, novel foundational, physical testable model of the universe, complete with postulate and equation was ignored. I do hope FQXi does not ignore my theory.

The real Universe only deals in absolutes. All information is abstract and all and every abstract part of information is excruciatingly difficult to understand. Information is always selective, subjective and sequential. Reality is not and cannot ever be selective subjective and sequential.

One (1) real unique Universe can only be eternally occurring in one real here and now while perpetually traveling at one real "speed" of light through one real infinite dimension once. One is the absolute of everything. (1) is the absolute of number. Real is the absolute of being. Universe is the absolute of energy. Eternal is the absolute of duration. Occurring is the absolute of action. Here and now are absolutes of location and time. Perpetual is the absolute of ever. Traveling is the absolute of conveyance method. Light is the absolute of speed. Infinite dimension is the absolute of distance and once is the absolute of history. Life is the absolute of understanding.

Had Wheeler only asked?

Is the real Universe simple? Yes

Is the abstract universe simple? No

Is unique, once simple Yes.

Is 0 1 simple? No.

Good luck in the contest,

Joe

Dear Dr. Elliot McGucken,

Firstly, let me tell you I am delighted by your essay. Secondly, I am happy to count one more dependable ally in the mission to restore glory to our physics. There is nothing to criticize in your essay as all lovers of truth must read it thoroughly. As we all know, history will surely vindicate the just. Even if you would not be commenting on or rating my essay, as one close to Wheeler, I would like you to guess answers he would have given to some of my questions below (following Wheeler's own quote and use of words). I had earlier sought answers by circulating to a few but some found this disrespectful so I stopped.

"If you wake up one morning and dip your hand in your pocket and 'detect' a million dollars, then on your way back from work, you dip your hand again and find that there is nothing there...

1) Have you 'elicited' an information in the latter case?

2) If you did not 'participate' by putting your 'detector' hand in your pocket, can you 'elicit' information?

3) If the information is provided by the presence of the crisp notes ('its') you found in your pocket, can the absence of the notes, being an 'immaterial source' convey information?

Finally, leaving for the moment what the terms mean and whether or not they can be discretely expressed in the way spin information is discretely expressed, e.g. by electrons

4) Can the existence/non-existence of an 'it' be a binary choice, representable by 0 and 1?"

Answers can be in binary form for brevity, i.e. YES = 1, NO = 0, e.g. 0-1-0-1.

Looking forward to more correspondence with an ally.

Best regards,

Akinbo

Then on the foundational issues raised in my essay, is the basic unit of geometry, that 'having no part', a zero dimensional or an extended object? That is 'point' or 'monad'?

"To begin with, let us examine a simple, irrefutable proof of moving dimensions theory, that anyone who has witnessed the double-slit experiment, cannot deny. The proof comes from my earlier paper:

Time as an Emergent Phenomenon & Deriving Einstein's Relativity from Moving Dimensions Theory's dx4/dt=ic: Traveling Back to the Heroic Age of Physics"

Dear Dr. Elliot McGucken,

I found your above comments to be well grounded in the current paradigm of how observed or measured effects cause effects, i.e., effectual causality and could not help but wonder if you had considered/addressed what caused the effects observed in the double-slit experiments in the first place?

I am more than pleased to give you a high rating. However, before I do, I would like to run some other questions by you if I may via email. My email address is: msm@physicsofdestiny.com

I look forward to hearing from you and supporting your efforts before the conclusion of this competition.

Dear d-r Elliot,

I have read your nice essay that arise many controversial associations to me. Particularly I see your big honor to our teachers/classics of physics that I fully share with you. I think however that they must be perceived as normally fair persons in first. Thus, they have right also to have mistakes as anyone from us. You know well the drama that become the share of Einstein, as well as of Schroedinger, de Broglie, Pauly and for many others. So, we must ask himself - what happened with physics and physicists in that time? Whay they become so unhappy on the end of their career and of lives? I have touch to this questions also in my essay within other aspects. I hope you will find time to open it Es text. For me will be very valuable any your comment in my forum - as from of one professional.

I see very unfair such small attention on your work that I am going to rate as ,,high,, - as one of interesting work presented in the contest.

I wish you good health and all the best!

George

Dear Dr McGucken

I just read your response to Anton Vrba. I so agree; especially about the lipstick!

Now, to read your paper...

Stephen Anastasi

    I have read your paper. I cannot see how an expanding dimension would not lead to Zeno's paradoxes. It would need to assume a smooth continuum I feel, as with a lot of other physical theories, as well slamming into my 'Problem for Geometry' carried into your fourth dimensional schema (see attached).

    Just a thought.

    Dear Professor McGucken,

    Thank you for your epic post above. I agree we certainly have similar views on some things. Are we now to old to be heroes?

    I'd be most grateful if you have a moment to check over and agree the equations in my previous essay and end notes. They're not extensive.

    I noted I hadn't rated your essay and it was languishing, we should dos so, have now done so to very good effect I hope. Some essays such as yours do seem rather out of position.

    Very best wishes

    Peter

    Dear De McGucken,

    I've lost a lot of comments and replies on my thread and many other threads I have commented on over the last few days. This has been a lot of work and I feel like it has been a waste of time and energy. Seems to have happened to others too - if not all.

    I WILL ATTEMPT to revisit all threads to check and re-post something. Your thread was one affected by this.

    I can't remember the full extent of what I said, but I have notes so know that I rated it very highly.

    Hopefully the posts will be able to be retrieved by FQXi.

    Best wishes,

    Antony

    Dear Dr McGucken,

    What a fantastic essay - sorry I have only just read it! I rate it highly as it deserves to be much higher in the rankings. Regardless of this, I think you've presented the right arguments in a clear, concise and relevant way. It is very, very interesting with the history involved and the passion you've shown sucks the reader in - in a good way! :)

    I'm an advocate of bottom up approaches.

    Anyway best wishes for the contest and congratulations on an engaging essay.

    Antony

    Having read so many insightful essays, I am probably not the only one to find that my views have crystallized, and that I can now move forward with growing confidence. I cannot exactly say who in the course of the competition was most inspiring - probably it was the continuous back and forth between so many of us. In this case, we should all be grateful to each other.

    If I may, I'd like to express some of my newer conclusions - by themselves, so to speak, and independently of the logic that justifies them; the logic is, of course, outlined in my essay.

    I now see the Cosmos as founded upon positive-negative charges: It is a binary structure and process that acquires its most elemental dimensional definition with the appearance of Hydrogen - one proton, one electron.

    There is no other interaction so fundamental and all-pervasive as this binary phenomenon: Its continuance produces our elements - which are the array of all possible inorganic variants.

    Once there exists a great enough correlation between protons and electrons - that is, once there are a great many Hydrogen atoms, and a great many other types of atoms as well - the continuing Cosmic binary process arranges them all into a new platform: Life.

    This phenomenon is quite simply inherent to a Cosmos that has reached a certain volume of particles; and like the Cosmos from which it evolves, life behaves as a binary process.

    Life therefore evolves not only by the chance events of natural selection, but also by the chance interactions of its underlying binary elements.

    This means that ultimately, DNA behaves as does the atom - each is a particle defined by, and interacting within, its distinct Vortex - or 'platform'.

    However, as the cosmic system expands, simple sensory activity is transformed into a third platform, one that is correlated with the Organic and Inorganic phenomena already in existence: This is the Sensory-Cognitive platform.

    Most significantly, the development of Sensory-Cognition into a distinct platform, or Vortex, is the event that is responsible for creating (on Earth) the Human Species - in whom the mind has acquired the dexterity to focus upon itself.

    Humans affect, and are affected by, the binary field of Sensory-Cognition: We can ask specific questions and enunciate specific answers - and we can also step back and contextualize our conclusions: That is to say, we can move beyond the specific, and create what might be termed 'Unified Binary Fields' - in the same way that the forces acting upon the Cosmos, and holding the whole structure together, simultaneously act upon its individual particles, giving them their motion and structure.

    The mind mimics the Cosmos - or more exactly, it is correlated with it.

    Thus, it transpires that the role of chance decreases with evolution, because this dual activity (by which we 'particularize' binary elements, while also unifying them into fields) clearly increases our control over the foundational binary process itself.

    This in turn signifies that we are evolving, as life in general has always done, towards a new interaction with the Cosmos.

    Clearly, the Cosmos is participatory to a far greater degree than Wheeler imagined - with the evolution of the observer continuously re-defining the system.

    You might recall the logic by which these conclusions were originally reached in my essay, and the more detailed structure that I also outline there. These elements still hold; the details stated here simply put the paradigm into a sharper focus, I believe.

    With many thanks and best wishes,

    John

    Dear Dr. Elliot McGucken,

    I find your interest in the arts most endearing and relative to the findings of a recently completed experiment that may indeed confirm your Moving Dimensions Theory and your statement, "And if I want to turn history around to try to get a new way of looking at it, it doesn't make any difference; the only real test in physics is experiment, and history is fundamentally irrelevant." Although you have a different approach to the topic than I do, I found your essay to be insightful and intuitive and most worthy of merit.

    Best wishes,

    Manuel

    Dear Elliot,

    We are at the end of this essay contest.

    In conclusion, at the question to know if Information is more fundamental than Matter, there is a good reason to answer that Matter is made of an amazing mixture of eInfo and eEnergy, at the same time.

    Matter is thus eInfo made with eEnergy rather than answer it is made with eEnergy and eInfo ; because eInfo is eEnergy, and the one does not go without the other one.

    eEnergy and eInfo are the two basic Principles of the eUniverse. Nothing can exist if it is not eEnergy, and any object is eInfo, and therefore eEnergy.

    And consequently our eReality is eInfo made with eEnergy. And the final verdict is : eReality is virtual, and virtuality is our fundamental eReality.

    Good luck to the winners,

    And see you soon, with good news on this topic, and the Theory of Everything.

    Dear Elliot McGucken,

    Yes you are a hero in many ways. You have the ancient Plato's soul that is searching for the truth no matter what. I share your searching for truth no matter what. Simultaneously, I welcome and desire diversity of opinions and I am against uniformity of opinion because this means the death of humanity. We can learn this from history of many civilizations from Asia, to Africa, to America and to Europe, wherever, they closed their doors from outside influences and from exchange of ideas and goods, these civilizations are in the "dark ages".

    Yes, we need more heroes. Fortunately I have met many brave heroes like you.

    We have similarities but also many differences. I do think differences are good and blessing. I don't like uniformity.

    Rather than four dimensions x1, x2, x3, x4, in the fourth dimension x4 that is moving to the x1,2,3; whereas KQID has ψτ(iLx,y,z, Lm) Multiverse in the zero dimension of singularity A+S=E=ψI(CTE) meme as the bits-waves function of consciousness (C), time(T) and energy(E). This meme ψI(CTE) is an atom, you and me, earth, our universe, our God/s and our Multiverse as well as Karl Popper's scientific method. The iLx,y,z are within the Lm or zeroth dimension. In other words, LM is pregnant with iLx,y,z. the mother Lm is carrying around the child ilx,y,z. The i before Lx,y,z showing that it is a secondary entity and it is an emergent products of Lm and iLx,y,z are the child of Lm and Lm is the mother of iLx,y,z. KQID treats i as a real number just like 123 but it is still √-1. Thus, everything is going on is going on inside that one singularity Qbit Multiverse meme that calculates Einstein complex coordinates and simultaneously project those numbers onto 2D screen everywhere space in time.

    Yours MDT: dx4/dt= ic , whereas KQID dLm/dt = c where Lm is our Multiverse timeline in the zeroth dimension, c is the KQID flexible c-timerod or c is the movement of time. Thus, c is time; c is KQID flexible c-timerod, rather than Einstein's rigid meterrod. Einstein and MDT are measuring spacetime but KQID is measuring space in time. the time c-timerod is measuring time!!! Time contracts; thus length contracts and energy and mass increase. Time is the mother of space and space is the child of time. Time is primary and space is secondary. Time is pregnant with space in its bosom. Whereas, your MDT like Einstein assumes space is real and time is a persistent illusion. This is legitimate worldview but KQID prescribes contrary worldview that time is real as primary, and space in time is also real as secondary.

    I agree with Karl Popper's statements below that you quoted that I do also like and agree with Karl Popper's meme ψI(CTE) and I subscribe his scientific method and falsification.

    You stated:

    "Karl Popper: Good tests kill flawed theories; we remain alive to guess again.

    Karl Popper: Science must begin with myths, and with the criticism of myths.

    Karl Popper: In so far as a scientific statement speaks about reality, it must be falsifiable; and in so far as it is not falsifiable, it does not speak about reality."

    Yes, we have many in common as a rebel among other things and we both respect heroes like Newton, Maxwell, Boltzmann, Max Planck, Einstein, Bohr, Wheeler, Feynman, Landauer, and i do also like Chinese heroes like Fu Xi, Nüwa, Shennong, Xuan Yuan, Kongzi, Wang Yaming and many others like Jesus, Mohammad, Buddha, Krishna, etc, and we do still need more heroes everywhere who stand for the truth and are willing to risk their jobs, positions, fame and fortune and if necessary even lives.

    Salute!

    Live long and prosper,

    Best wishes,

    Dr. Elliot McGucken

    Would love to do a podcast for FQXI on how LTD Theory stemmed from working with J.A. Wheeler on the nature of time, entanglement, and general relativity!

    Simply put, the fabric of spacetime, relativity, quantum probability, nonlocality, and entanglement, and the asymmetry of time were all *PHYSICALLY* REAL in Wheeler's office, and any foundational physics would have to account and exalt all these phenomena.

    And that is what LTD Theory does. (have fun browsing the below books--I am happy to answer any questions)

    LTD Theory is that "simple, unifying idea" which Wheeler sought.

    Would love to describe what it was like working with Wheeler, Nobel Laureate Joseph Taylor, and PJE Peebles on the foundations of quantum mechanics!

    Best,

    Subject: Article proposal for FQXI: New books from J.A. Wheeler's former Princeton student!

    To: "Dr. Elliot McGucken"

    Greetings FQXI!

    LTD Theory's Postulate: The fourth dimension is expanding at c relative to the three spatial dimensions.: dx4/dt=ic

    I would love to pen an article for you based on my four books pertaining to LTD Theory, which were based on my fqxi essays pertaining to Moving Dimensions Theory.

    As far as I can tell:

    1) nobody else has published four books pertaining to their essays (let alone a single book)

    2) nobody else has yet presented a simple postulate, principle, nor equation

    3) nobody has offered a proof of their principle nor postulate

    4) nobody else was ever as highly recommended as I was by the legendary J.A. Wheeler

    5) nobody else has answered close to as many foundational questions as LTD Theory has answered. And too, even more importantly, nobody has ASKED as many foundational questions as LTD Theory has.

    6) Nobody else healed the blind with their physics Ph.D. dissertation.

    Enjoy the four books on LTD Theory below! I would be happy to write an article of any length for you! Please let me know how many words and figures you would prefer!

    BEst,

    Regarding the award-winning physicist Dr. Elliot McGucken at Princeton University, the late John Archibald Wheeler stated, "More intellectual curiosity, versatility and yen for physics than Elliot McGucken's I have never seen in any senior or graduate student. . . Originality, powerful motivation, and a can-do spirit make me think that McGucken is a top bet."

    LTD Theory's Postulate: The fourth dimension is expanding at c relative to the three spatial dimensions.

    Proof:

    1. Every entity has a velocity of c through the three spatial dimensions.

    2. All observers agree that a photon has a velocity of c through the three spatial dimensions.

    3. If a photon had any velocity component through the fourth dimension, its velocity would be other than c, which is impossible.

    4. Ergo the velocity of the photon is zero through the fourth dimension.

    5. Thus, a photon provides a tracer and tracker of the movement and character of the fourth dimension.

    6. The fourth dimension is expanding at the rate of c,as is also seen in Minkowski's x4=ict (dx4/dt=ic) from which all of relativity may be derived from the invariance of the Minkowski spacetime metric. Thus the expansion of the fourth dimension naturally leads to all of relativity.

    7. The expansion of the fourth dimension is the foundational cause of quantum nonlocality and thus its probability, as a photon has an equal chance of being found anywhere upon a sphere expanding at the rate of c, which is exactly how the expansion of x4 manifests itself.

    8. The one-way expansion of the forth dimension provides the foundational asymmetry for time and all its arrows, as well as the second law of thermodynamics.

    Thus LTD Theory's simple, foundational, physical model grants us time and all its arrows and asymmetries alongside all of relativity and quantum mechanics.

    I thought you might enjoy my new books unifying quantum mechanics and relativity with a foundational, physical model. If you would like a free review copy of any or all four books, please do let me know!

Originality, powerful motivation, and a can-do spirit make me think that McGucken is a top bet."

    Dr. E would go on to heal the blind with his NSF-funded, award-winning Ph.D. dissertation which also laid down the foundations of Light Time Dimension Theory. Over the years, LTD Theory added foundational *physical* postulates, principles, and equations en route to becoming numerous books, with this one forming the simple, illustrated introduction.

    In this commonsense volume penned for the layman and advanced scientist alike, Dr. E's LTD Theory provides a unifying, foundational *physical* model underlying relativity, quantum mechanics, time and all its arrows and asymmetries, and the second law of thermodynamics. The detailed diagrams demonstrate that the great mysteries of quantum mechanical nonlocality, entanglement, and probability naturally arise from the very same principle that fosters relativity alongside light's constant velocity, the equivalence of mass and energy, and time dilation.

    One fine afternoon while Dr. E was lunching with J.A. Wheeler at the Princeton Institute for Advanced Study (IAS), a bespectacled gentleman joined them. Wheeler introduced the fellow as Ed Witten--one of the leading pioneers of string theory and inventor of M-theory. Dr. E had been contemplating pursuing string theory, but there were some finer details he could not wrap his head around. "Great!" Dr. E thought to himself, "This guy can help me along my odyssey!"

    So halfway through lunch Dr. E asked Dr. Witten, "What are string theory's postulates, principles, and equations?"

    Witten thought about it, smiled, and said, that well, it depended on who you asked, and well, it was a young theory.

    So Dr. E followed up with, "When do you think string theory might get postulates, principles, and equations?" Ed stopped smiling.

    And so, instead of studying string theory, Dr. E pursued LTD Theory on that "road less taken," healing the blind along the way with his award-winning dissertation titled Multiple Unit Artificial Retina Chipset to Aid the Visually Impaired and Enhanced CMOS Phototransistors. In the latter part of the dissertation, Dr. E placed the first iteration of LTD Theory, born of his days studying with the great PJE Peebles, Nobel Laureate Joseph Taylor, and J.A. Wheeler. Like Einstein and Feynman, they were all rugged, kind, intense men who valued hands-on physics and *physical* reality over mere math and mysticism--over spurious speculation and outlandish hype.

    Unlike string theory, inflation, and multiverse mania, LTD Theory is a *physical* theory in the spirit of Copernicus, Galileo, Newton, Faraday, Maxwell, and Einstein. At Princeton Dr. E learned to think of the geometry of spacetime as a physical entity which could bend, curve, and move. He learned to think of the photon as a real, physical entity described as probabilistic, spherically-symmetric wavefront expanding at velocity c. Dr. E learned to think of entanglement as a real, *physical* effect connecting distant entities in an instantaneous relationship, and he learned to think of the second law of thermodynamics not as a mere mathematical formula, but as a foundational, physical law governing the universe. And by thinking of these diverse phenomena in terms of *physical* pictures, Dr. E conceived of LTD Theory--the simple, physical model common to them all.

    How do light, time, the quantum, and relativity all emerge from LTD Theory? Enjoy this epic odyssey as you realize the deeper, foundational, unifying, *physical* model! And too, the book is graced with Dr. E's fine art landscape photography offering a parallel *physical* celebration of light and time.

    J.A. Wheeler: More intellectual curiosity, versatility and yen for physics than Elliot McGucken's I have never seen in any senior or graduate student. . . Originality, powerful motivation, and a can-do spirit make me think that McGucken is a top bet . . . I say this on the basis of close contacts with him over the past year and a half. . .(. -J.A. Wheeler, Princeton's Joseph Henry Professor of Physics )

    Arthur Schopenhauer: Talent hits a target no one else can hit; Genius hits a target no one else can see.

    Bernard Baruch: Millions saw the apple fall, but Newton was the one who asked why.

    Albert Szent-Györgyi: Genius is seeing what everyone else sees and thinking what no one else has thought.

    Steve Jobs: Think different.

    Early on in the book, a most simple, remarkable, revolutionary drawing is shared. The figure is Sir Isaac Newton's revolutionary drawing of a cannonball being fired off a mountaintop at the North Pole. The drawing depicts what happens as the cannonball is fired with higher and higher velocities. At first, the cannonball lands fairly close to the cannon. Then, with a higher velocity, it lands farther away upon the earth's curved surface. Ultimately, as Newton's figure shows, if the cannonball is fired with a great enough velocity, it will orbit the earth and return to point on the mountaintop from whence it began. Via a simple drawing, Newton showed that the same force which draws objects to the earth can also keep objects in orbit. And so it is that Newton's famous theory and law of universal gravitation was born.

    The Greeks, from Pythagoras on down, knew the earth was round. They also knew that objects fell towards the earth. Thus Plato, Socrates, and Aristotle could have drawn Newton's figure. Bruno or Copernicus could have drawn it. Galileo could have drawn it. Kepler could have drawn it, and perhaps he should have! But none of them did. It was Newton who drew it.

    Not only does this book celebrate how simple drawings have ever advanced and revolutionized physics, from Thomas Young's sketch of the double slit experiment to Faraday's sketches of the electric and magnetic fields, but it also exalts a brand new theory--Light Time Dimension Theory--exalting and advancing science by these very same, simple methods rooted in simple, physical pictures and ideas.

    Just as Newton revolutionized our understanding of gravity via a remarkably simple physical picture, so did Einstein, writing, "I was sitting in a chair in the patent office at Bern when all of a sudden a thought occurred to me: "If a person falls freely he will not feel his own weight. I was startled. This simple thought made a deep impression on me. It impelled me toward a theory of gravitation." This simple thought lead to Einstein's General Theory of Relativity, wherein space and time bend and curve. Unlike string theory, Light Time Dimension Theory acknowledges the fact that dimensions move, and it simply extends the general principle by stipulating that the fourth dimension is expanding at the rate of c relative to the three spatial dimensions.

    In the same way Newton was the first to sketch the gravitational orbits of cannonballs and Faraday was the first to sketch electric and magnetic fields and the invisible "lines of force," Dr. E the first to draw the expansion of the fourth dimension. And in doing so, he recognized that x4's expansion was responsible for the basic characteristics of quantum mechanics, relativity, and the second law of thermodynamics. Via the simple sketch, Dr. E found a doorway to the deeper physical reality underlying and unifying relativity, quantum mechanical behavior, and time's arrows and asymmetries.

    Join us on this epic odyssey through not only the beautiful simplicity of science's greatest revolutionary thoughts and drawings from the likes of Feynman, Einstein, Faraday, Newton, Galileo, and Copernicus, but from Dr. E too.

    John Archibald Wheeler: More intellectual curiosity, versatility and yen for physics than Elliot McGucken's I have never seen in any senior or graduate student. . . Originality, powerful motivation, and a can-do spirit make me think that McGucken is a top bet. (J.A. Wheeler, Princeton Joseph Henry Professor of Physics)

    The great Albert Einstein stated, "The development of Western Science is based on two great achievements, the invention of the formal logical system (in Euclidean geometry) by the Greek philosophers, and the discovery of the possibility to find out causal relationships by systematic experiment (Renaissance)."

    Unfortunately, the string theorists and multimillionaire multiverse maniacs have abandoned both experiment and formal logic. In order to sustain their failed regimes, they exiled the two pillars of Western Science, alongside simple truth and beauty. And so it is that theoretical physics ground to a halt.

    But yet, hope springs eternal, and Light Time Dimension Theory, born of the noble spirit of Galileo, Newton, Faraday, and Einstein, is based on a simple postulate that has been physically observed and formally proven.

    LTD's Postulate: The fourth dimension is expanding at the rate of c relative to the three spatial dimensions, or dx4/dt=ic.

    From this simple postulate, a physical model emerges accounting for and exalting all of relativity, time and all its arrows and asymmetries, quantum mechanics' nonlocality, probabilities, and entanglement, and the second law of thermodynamics. Thus LTD provides a vast and resounding unification of physics, while finally characterizing the deeper nature of the stage underlying both quantum mechanics and relativity.

    However, the massively failed regimes cannot admit their failure, and thus simple truth and beauty must be castigated, impugned, and exiled. But like Tom Brady and Odysseus, Dr. E just won't give up. The bold book exalts in the words and wisdom of dozens of Nobel Laureate physicists, Giants such as Newton, Galileo, Copernicus, and Einstein, and other contemporary luminaries who, although vastly outnumbered by the string theory click-bait blogger, multiverse maniacs, and televangelists of pseudoscience, take a stand with Dr. E.

    So come enjoy a fantastic, heroic odyssey that not only examines the soul of science, but also exalts its higher, historical nature alongside a brand new theory born of the higher scientific spirit celebrated by Einstein and Newton.

    Regarding the award-winning physicist Dr. Elliot McGucken at Princeton University, the late John Archibald Wheeler stated, "More intellectual curiosity, versatility and yen for physics than Elliot McGucken's I have never seen in any senior or graduate student. . . Originality, powerful motivation, and a can-do spirit make me think that McGucken is a top bet."

    Leonardo da Vinci: Simplicity is the ultimate sophistication.

    At long last, a simple, foundational theory has risen above the fray so as to finally unify relativity and quantum mechanics in a simple, physical model premised upon the principle of a fourth expanding dimension. This heavily-illustrated book delights in deriving all of Einstein's relativity, both intuitively and mathematically, from LTD Theory's simple postulate and equation. Unlike many other books, it takes us beyond the stringy swamp to new, pristine territory where simple postulates and principles again reign supreme, as they did throughout the original development of quantum mechanics and relativity. In the grand spirit of Einstein, the book celebrates the simplicity of physics, and thus makes for a straightforward, exalting read for the expert and layman alike.

    Albert Einstein: A theory is the more impressive the greater is the simplicity of its premises (LTD Theory's principle of the fourth expanding dimension), the more different are the kinds of things it relates (relativity, the quantum, time, the second law of thermodynamics, dark matter, dark energy, entanglement) and the more extended the range of its applicability.

    Arthur Schopenhauer: Talent hits a target no one else can hit; Genius hits a target no one else can see.

    Few know that Einstein yet sought a deeper foundation for his relativity. Regarding relativity, Einstein wrote, "A physical theory can be satisfactory only if its structures are composed of elementary foundations. The theory of relativity is ultimately as little satisfactory as, for example, classical thermodynamics was before Boltzmann had interpreted the entropy as probability."

    At long last, Light Time Dimension Theory hath found the elementary foundations underlying not only relativity, but all of quantum mechanics too, as well as time and its arrows and asymmetries. As physics has ever been furthered via *physical* principles and postulates, as opposed to string theory press releases, LTD Theory exalts the hitherto unsung postulate of a fourth expanding dimension given by dx4/dt=ic. And the very heavens open up.

    By the end of this book, you will see how LTD Theory replaces Einstein's two postulates of relativity with a simpler, more foundational principle of nature--the universal invariant of the fourth expanding dimension also seen in LTD Theory's simple equation dx4/dt=ic. And you will see that this principle has the added benefit of also providing a simple, natural, *physical* mechanism for quantum mechanics, time, and the second law of thermodynamics.

    The fast-paced book takes the reader on a fantastic odyssey beginning with the simple, intuitive proofs that light remains stationary in the fourth dimension, leading to the remarkable fact that the fourth dimension is expanding relative to the three spatial dimensions at c. Einstein's drawing of the light cone is celebrated alongside all the aspects of relativity it exalts. And too, quite remarkably, for the first time in the history of physics, the foundations of quantum mechanics are also seen in the nonlocal expansion of the light cone.

    Einstein's simple, intuitive derivations of the Lorentz transformations are shared and discussed. And it is shown that the Lorentz transformations, and thus all of relativity, naturally emerge from LTD's deeper principle of a fourth expanding dimension, right alongside the quantum and time and all her one-way arrows.

    Unlike the dominant string theory and multiverse mania, LTD Theory exalts in simple postulates, principles, and equations on towards exalting its epic unifications.

    Enjoy the books!
