JUST PLAIN WRONG The Dalliance of Quantum Theory with the Defiance of Bell's Inequality
by Frank LadThe educated public have long been regaled with "the mysteries of quantum physics", which enshroud far-flung claims about the fundamental nature of matter. These rely on a stunning proposition of quantum theory arising in the 1960s and contested through the subsequent sixty years: that the probabilities deriving from it defy a mathematical inequality known as Bell's inequality. John Bell himself, who formulated the problem, was puzzled by the result, and surmised that in time we would discover w... more -
Complexity Thinking
by Cornelis Pieter PietersThis book explores the hidden assumptions behind 'objectivity' 'truth' and 'fact' in (amongst others) scientific research and proposes a complexity-informed, dialectical alternative in order to counter the threat of naïve truth relativism -
The Four Forces of Human Nature: A Unifying Theory
by Roberto Treviño PeñaSince physicists discovered the four fundamental forces of nature—Weak, Strong, Electromagnetic and Gravity—they have tried to unify them into one theory. Physicists went down to the subatomic level to search and ended up with vibrating strings. They went up into space and ended up with gravitons (which are yet to be found). But what do these forces mean in terms of human behavior? In The Four Forces of Human Nature: A Unifying Theory, Dr. Treviño Peña identifies the human forces and the specifi... more -

Quantum Theory of Electrodynamics
by Russel James FarmerQuantum Theory of Electrodynamics was first published in the Toth-Maatian Review, Lubbock, Texas, 1990-93, Editor Harold Willis Milnes. Having ascertained that a wave packet spectrum had to be constructed out of Doppler shift frequencies, it was natural to use non-relativistic, rather than relativistic, Doppler shifts, as they are simpler and the chance of a successful theory is greater using them. Constructing a Fourier spectrum in this manner, the first thing evident was that the width of the ... more -
Grand Unification of the Four Fundamental Forces of Physics
by Russel James FarmerAnother version of Feynman's QED, in which Einstein's interpretation of Planck's law is derived from first principles, without all the tedious rigour of the "semi-classical treatment" of quantum mechanics. We arrive at a theoretical mass of the Higgs boson, without reference to particle physics! It is confirmed that "dark matter" is just the mass equivalent of the galactic gravitational energy.

Cellular Mind: Your Cells Create Your Mind (Not Your Brain)
by M. RowenCenturies of scientific research has failed to find evidence that the human mind is generated by brain processes. No scientific theory has ever been developed that explains, even in principle, how brain processes can generate the vibrant conscious experiences that we all take for granted, a mystery known as the "hard problem of consciousness". This book will review astonishing evidence from experiments in cutting edge biology and neuroscience that suggest that your mind is not generated by you... more -
