The Theory of Elementary Waves: A New Explanation of Fundamental Physics, by Dr. Lewis E. Little, upends the standard view of quantum mechanics. His new theory explains activity at the sub-atomic level with the same understanding of cause and effect that governs all other science: In other words, the Theory of Elementary Waves (TEW) "makes sense of the physical universe." The science of physics should allow us to understand the physical world, from galaxies to sub-atomic particles. Yet quantum mechanics has produced a sad irony, namely that millions of high school and college students consider physics to be virtually incomprehensible. Explanations under quantum mechanics include a variety of contradictions. Most prominent is that elementary particles simultaneously exhibit the properties and behavior of particles and waves, a notion which produced the claim that a single particle—or at least it’s “potential”—can be in two places at once. The links in this chain of absurdity have led to bizarre extremes, such as the idea of backwards time, curved space and the comment from a well-known physicist that "the moon is demonstrably not there when nobody looks." The time is ripe for a credible challenge to the formalisms of quantum theory. The Theory of Elementary Waves presents: ·A full critique of quantum theory, including Heisenberg's Uncertainty Principle, Bell's Theorem, the "double-slit" experiment and such topics as "dark matter." ·An entire chapter on how TEW provides a physical explanation of Einstein's theory of relativity. ·How TEW sheds new light on the physics of the atom and atomic decay. ·Suggestions for future research, not just in physics but in chemistry and biology as well. In the book’s foreword, best-selling author Robert Prechter credits Dr. Little with "a vision as revolutionary as that of Copernicus 350 years earlier," and writes "he not only revolutionizes the fundamentals of sub-atomic physics but also reclaims the fundamentals of scientific philosophy." If you want to experience being at the forefront of a scientific revolution in what was formerly an unnecessarily mysterious field, The Theory of Elementary Waves: A New Explanation of Fundamental Physics is for you.

About the Author:
Dr. Lewis E. Little received his BA in physics from Brown University in 1962, graduating with highest honors. He received his MA in physics from Princeton University in 1965 and his Ph.D. in physics from New York University in 1974. As a second year graduate student in 1963, Dr. Little came to the conclusion that quantum mechanics, the currently accepted theory of subatomic phenomena, is erroneous. The clash between quantum mechanics and the basic principles of elementary logic and reason had led many physicists to question those principles rather than the theory of quantum mechanics. But the clash proved to Dr. Little that some aspect of quantum mechanics must be false. Thus began a 30-year odyssey in search of a properly physical and rational theory. In 1996, Dr. Little published his groundbreaking paper, The Theory of Elementary Waves, in Physics Essays. He delivered his first presentation on The Theory of Elementary Waves at Jet Propulsion Labs in 2000, and in 2009 Dr. Little completed The Theory of Elementary Waves: A New Explanation of Fundamental Physics to introduce the key elements of his theory to physicists and non-physicists alike. Dr. Little ardently advocates a philosophy of reason and hopes that this work will contribute to the restoration of rational thought not only in science but also in our culture at large. --This text refers to the Kindle Edition edition.
Review:
Physicists will marvel at the way Dr. Little is able to penetrate to the crux of the matter with crystal clear explanations on so many related subjects in so short a space....A good read even for experienced professionals. -Frank Schneider, Ph.D., Jet Propulsion Labs I recommend this important work. Little s theory makes quantum physics understandable. -Archie McKerrell, Ph.D., Theoretical Physicist, University of Liverpool Like Copernicus demolishing the cycles and epicycles of Ptolemaic astronomy, the Theory of Elementary Waves has the potential to sweep away decades of absurdity which have grown up on the basic observations of quantum mechanics. -Michael Flagg, Nuclear Engineer, University of Missouri Research Reactor Center --Frank Schneider, Ph.D., Jet Propulsion Labs
