About this title

Synopsis

Dr. Winthrop undertakes to identify the very source of physical law, with a view to explaining why there are any laws at all and why they have the forms they do. The main idea is to treat the representation of a fact of the external world as a received message. By assuming exact correspondence between the fact and its representation one arrives a general law of physics, a Law of Laws, one that yields both known and new laws governing the behavior of the quantum micro-world and the universe at large. Moreover, the laws so obtained are true by definition. Hence the Principle of True the laws of physics derive from the unification of appearance and reality. The present volume erases the boundaries between physics, metaphysics and neuroscience and should attract the attention of a broad spectrum of workers seeking to view fundamental problems in a new light.

About the Author

John T. Winthrop studied x-ray holography and optical selfimaging at the University of Michigan, earning his doctorate in physics there in 1966. A Fellow of the Optical Society of America, he devoted his professional life to the design of varifocal lenses and holds many patents in the field of ophthalmic design. The Principle of True Representation documents his independent research into foundational matters.
