Great New Worldview - Read a Chapter

[Andy]

Just a heads-up for anyone interested either in science or just the latest big new ideas. I just finished an amazing and unusual read called The Final Theory by Mark McCutcheon. Before reading it I never realized how many holes there are in what we're taught, even just with gravity, light, magnetism and electricity, let alone more advanced areas like relativity and quantum mechanics. But I also never thought I'd ever find such solid, simple answers to it all in my lifetime, just by looking at the universe from a slightly different viewpoint -- everything just falls neatly into place!

The book goes through everything in very plain language with plenty of diagrams, showing all the errors and misunderstandings leading to wild ideas like "dark matter", "dark energy", "superstrings", "hyper-dimensions", etc., and replaces them with one simple overlooked principle throughout that clears up all the mysteries and paradoxes. And the inspiration for this new theory even came from one of Einstein's own thought experiments where gravity on Earth is indistinguishable from being pulled upward in an elevator in deep space. Very intriguing read!

There seems to be a lot of controversy with this book. In the forum link below, there's a discussion of said book and a claim that Amazon took a "not a glowing" review off its web site and has since restored the review.

Being that I am not an expert in the field and I have not read the book, I cannot recommend either review. Looks like I have to go buy another book - sigh- (secretly delighted).
