Publisher's Synopsis
This is a National bestselling physics textbook based on some lectures by Balungi Francis, a Quantum Gravity researcher who has sometimes been called ―The Next Einstein‖. The lectures were presented before graduate students at the College of Engineering, Design, Art and Technology (Makerere), during 2012-2014, Ranging from the most basic principles of Newtonian physics through such formidable theories as general relativity and quantum mechanics, explaining dark matter and developing a quantum theory of gravity. Balungi's lectures stand as a monument of clear exposition and deep insight. Timeless and collectible, the lectures are essential reading, not just for students of physics but for anyone seeking an introduction to modern physics. Not since the Feynman lectures on physics has physics been so vividly, intelligently and entertainingly revealed. DISCLAIMER: If you have bought Balungi's " A New Kind of Physics" and "The Balungi Lectures on Physics Vol2" book, please don't pay for this book because the contents are almost the same in both books except only for the added six sections: 18. The Spectrum of the Atomic Universe 219 19. On the Generalization of Loop Quantum Gravity 227 20. An Exceptionally Simple Classical Unified Field Theory 232 21. The earliest period of time in the history of the Universe 237 22. Another form of general relativity and its new predictions 244 23. Balungi's 2010 Research in Quantum Gravity 260
