A cohesive theory of everything from quantum physics and gravity to black holes and inertia. The theory hinges upon the existence of a single oscillating particle and the scalable forces created by the mass it governs. This hypothesis suggests that light and electromagnetism are the flow of a bipolar pair of these particles in resonance; while electrons and photons are discreet groups of this charge. Using this theory, everything is explicable, from...

This updated edition of the New York Times Notable Book recounts the long hunt for Einstein's predicted gravitational waves-and celebrates their discovery.
In February 2016, astronomers announced that they had verified the last remaining prediction of Einstein's general theory of relativity-vibrations in space-time, called gravitational waves. Humanity can now tune in to a cosmic orchestra. We have heard the chirp of two black holes dancing toward...

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 categorized as the "Silent Majority". I try so much to tackle the problem from...
