5.0 out of 5 stars From General Relativity to Unified Field Theory, October 16, 1999

By A Customer

This review is from: Electroform Unified Field Theory (Hardcover)

The transition from general relativity to unified field theory took place in a way that was unexpected: the classical general theory of relativity could itself be ruled out with non-self-consistency theorems, although it was believed to be entirely self-consistent by most physicists for decades. That the non-self-consistency theorems could coincide with the miraculous GR prediction of the perhelion precession of Mercury, the curvature of light around the sun, and the gravitational red shift

was, however, surprising, as GR seemed to be proven by experiment, although careful study shows it can not be the correct theory for reasons accessible only to the minds of mathematical physicists. Before the experiment was even done, classical General Relativity could have been ruled out. However, the linearized field equations suggested that in local coordinates at least, the gravitational field would look like a mirror-image of the usual Maxwell's equations, with like-charges-attract coupling automatically producing right-hand rule magnetic-like effects. However, Einstein's theory predicted a magnetic component 4 times larger that one would would obtain if the magnetic part of the field were due strictly to the Lorentz time-dialation, as is the case in relativistic electrodynamics. The extra factor of 4 finally produces a violation of the conservation laws in the form of a violation of the equation of continuity, which provides the foundation of the 1st overthrow theorem. If we look for theories that do not have the unwanted factor of 4, we find that a suitable generalization of vector-boson field theory works out for the short- range nuclear forces as well as for gravitation and electromagnetism if the field equations are taken as locally valid in flat space with gravitational time-dialation only. Then one can derive all of Einstein's miraculous GR effects from a conservative quantum field theory, as shown in this book. 3rd edition, small hardback, 192 pp, 22 illustrations. See also GRAVITATION & THE ELECTROFORM MODEL: FROM GENERAL RELATIVITY TO UNIFIED FIELD THEORY by James A. Green, and THERMONUCLEAR FUSION IN STARS, also by James A. Green, which explores non-symmetrical properties of beta decay in connection with the short-range part of the field theory.
