In Nature’s Watchmaker John Thompson provides an answer to the enigma that has challenged scientists and philosophers since the study of time began: a complete description of the physics of the universe from its creation to its ultimate destruction.
His groundbreaking theory confronts the major issues faced by scientists - including gravity, the perplexing dark matter and even more bafling dark energy. It explains why particles exist, why they have their specific properties and predicts exactly the values of certain constants previously only obtainable by experiment.
Thompson explains why, despite the universe apparently expanding at an ever-increasing rate, it will eventually enter a contraction epoch. No other theory so elegantly combines the effects found in both the microscopic (atoms) and macroscopic (stars, black holes, galaxies) universes in one simply derived equation.
