Quantum gravity seeks a unified theory in which quantum matter is dynamically related to generally relativistic spacetime. Although a continuing work in progress, research programmes in the field such as string theory, loop quantum gravity, and causal set theory make it clear that a successful theory of quantum gravity will raise important challenges to our conceptions of space, time, and matter-perhaps abolishing them altogether as fundamental entities. But just as important, there is good reason to think that some of the problems in finding a theory of quantum gravity are themselves conceptual, in need of philosophical analysis. Philosophy Beyond Spacetime: Implications from Quantum Gravity assembles original papers from philosophers (and one physicist), establishing a definitive statement of the current state of play, on which future research into this area can build. Aiming to expand knowledge and understanding of the philosophy of quantum gravity, it emphasizes how debates in metaphysics--regarding emergence, composition, or grounding for example--shed light on the conceptual questions of quantum gravity. And conversely, how quantum theories of space and time call into question philosophical views grounded in classical spacetime. Furthermore, the philosophy of quantum gravity raises methodological questions, for instance concerning the relation between physics and metaphysics. The essays have been chosen to demonstrate to a wide range of philosophers the significance of the subject, as well as making novel contributions to it.

Translated into English for the first time, this brilliant French bestseller by eminent astrophysicist Laurent Nottale presents the theory of scale relativity, which offers a framework for the unification of quantum theory and relativity through fractal geometry. Updated and revised, with a new afterword by philosopher of science Charles Alunni, The Relativity of All Things is the first of Nottale's popularly accessible works available to English-language readers."To describe the ideas of relativity and quantum mechanics without a single mathematical formula is a veritable feat of magic. . . . With a philosophical audacity that only non-philosophers can possess, Nottale finds that the essence of the principle of relativity is in fact the affirmation of the existence of universal laws applied at every scale. . . . His task is enormous. He proposes that the theory of relativity and that of quantum mechanics, with the radical schism between their findings and methods of thinking, can be reconciled. . . . Nottale's methodological innovation is truly revolutionary. To bring it to fruition, he weds the mathematics of fractals with the theory of relativity. . . . Nottale's approach shows us that we are far from the 'end of science': we are perhaps only at its recommencement." Basarab Nicolescu, Business Digest"Einstein himself explicitly considered that a realistic approach to the quantum problem could go through the introduction of non-differentiability in physics. In 1948, he wrote in a letter to Wolfgang Pauli: 'Maybe someone will find out another possibility, provided he searches with enough perseverance.' Laurent Nottale is very precisely this 'someone'! Read and study this wonderful theory, let yourself be carried away by its beauty, its depth, and its major experimental implications, which are nothing less than fundamental for the future of science, and for philosophy." Charles Alunni, Director, Laboratoire Disciplinaire Pensée des Sciences at the École Normale Supérieure"Since the birth of quantum theory, physicists have been challenged with the development of a unified theory of quantum mechanics and relativity, with no general consensus on the best way forward. To progress further, we have to confront deep questions about space and time, quantum theory, and cosmology, which take theory back into contact with experiment. The theory of scale relativity offers a serious contribution to the debate on unification, offering an intuitive insight into how these theories could be fundamentally linked through space-time geometry." Philip Turner, Director, Centre for Plant Science and Biopolymer Research, Edinburgh Napier University"Laurent Nottale proposes that we look at the concept of fractals to make relativity, extended further yet, the fundamental principle on which to base quantum mechanics. After the relativity of time and space, he has tackled the relativity of scale, putting into question much of what we thought we knew." Pierre Bonnaure, Futuribles"Developments in geometry have often enabled progress in physics, especially when concerning relativity. Non-Euclidean geometry, geometrical systems where the plane is a sphere, made it possible for Einstein to devise his theory of curved space. Today, a new geometry, fractal geometry, allows us to propose a theory of fractal space." Idées clés, by Business Digest

"The Universe and Beyond" concentrates on the interrelationship between the ability of Physicists by way of Quantum Physics and other scientific methods, together with Philosophy, Parapsychology and the Hebraic Mystical Kabbalah in order to form a balance for the description of the Universe and how it functions in a Spacetime environment.Physicists have focused primarily on the universe determining that it has depth, has black holes, is held together by invisible strings (string theory and super string theory) is curved, has a magnetic force with a vibration all of its own in an infinite spacetime platform with no beginning and no end. They have also postulated that the universe as we know it, is expanding without end in sight. Einstein with his Theory of Relativity E=mc2 determined that nothing moves faster than the speed of light. However, in order for a spaceship to transverse from one solar system to another within our galaxy a UFO would have to propel its ship faster than the speed of light. Thus physicists have hypothesized that there may exist worm holes in space which would allow vehicles to travel thousands of times faster than the speed of light. With Spacetime only moving forward, I am convinced that there is a Divine Dimension from which miracles are performed and from which everything known and unknown to man was, is and will be created. Having said that, I ask the following question: Do all life forms have a soul? Then I ponder the following questions: Where do life characteristics come from? When do human life forms have souls placed into the independent material configuration? At what stage of development and how was this accomplished by our creator? Is life eternal? If so, where do we go once we leave this dimension? Do we return from where we came? The answers to these questions and an in depth scientific analysis of the universe will be found in "The Universe and Beyond".

After reaching the realms of Relativity & Quantum Mechanics, science, today, is as if bouncing back on the screen created apparently by those theories. Can't modern science cross over this screen and reveal further truths veiled in nature to give new directions to mankind, which is ever engaged in its relentless pursuit for ultimate contentment and freedom? Doesn't it owe the scientists to kindle new lights of awareness by such enquiries in the modem man, now so obsessed, confused, feared and ruined, as evident from recent mental and intellectual catastrophes witnessed in this super-computer era of ours? The deliberations in this text, first published in December, 1987, are oriented towards a breakthrough in modem scientific thought by analysing the theories hitherto available culminating in relativity and quantum mechanics. It rather tries to interpret and extend the ideas inherent in these theories to the entire field of human experiences and bring forth the ultimate essence of existence. In this exercise, experience, recognized as the fundamental basis of any scientific analysis, is given pivotal importance. The outcome of these deliberations brings forth a different orientation to the relationship between the experiencer- the individual -and the universe he is experiencing. It gives a new dimension to his ultimate goal and his assessment with regard to other fellow beings-human as well as subhuman -around, which can influence him to rearrange his interactions with nature so that both the individual as well as nature can evolve simultaneously in harmony. An enlarged version of these deliberations, that hopefully will help to study them further in detail, is under preparation.

The Springer Handbook of Spacetime is dedicated to the ground-breaking paradigm shifts embodied in the two relativity theories, and describes in detail the profound reshaping of physical sciences they ushered in. It includes in a single volume chapters on foundations, on the underlying mathematics, on physical and astrophysical implications, experimental evidence and cosmological predictions, as well as chapters on efforts to unify general relativity and quantum physics. The Handbook can be used as a desk reference by researchers in a wide variety of fields, not only by specialists in relativity but also by researchers in related areas that either grew out of, or are deeply influenced by, the two relativity theories: cosmology, astronomy and astrophysics, high energy physics, quantum field theory, mathematics, and philosophy of science. It should also serve as a valuable resource for graduate students and young researchers entering these areas, and for instructors who teach courses on these subjects. The Handbook is divided into six parts. Part A: Introduction to Spacetime Structure. Part B: Foundational Issues. Part C: Spacetime Structure and Mathematics. Part D: Confronting Relativity theories with observations. Part E: General relativity and the universe. Part F: Spacetime beyond Einstein.

Addressing some of the biggest questions of cosmology 1. How our universe came into existence? 2. What was the time before start of universe? 3. Is there anything outside of this universe? 4. Is time travel possible? 5. Is there any multiverse or parallel universe? The new understanding of basic dimensions absolute Time and Space will open the possibility of exploring beyond our current known universe. These absolute dimensions might supersede our current spacetime dimension and related theories. Interpretations based on these dimensions could effectively bridge the gap between theories of microscopic and telescopic worlds and it will eventually give us a better picture of our universe. This book will take us one step closer towards the understanding of our Entire Existence. Book Pages 60

Thanks to Einstein's relativity theories, our notions of space and time underwent profound revisions about a 100 years ago. The resulting interplay between geometry and physics has dominated all of fundamental physics since then. This volume contains contributions from leading researchers, worldwide, who have thought deeply about the nature and consequences of this interplay. The articles take a long-range view of the subject and distill the most important advances in broad terms, making them easily accessible to non-specialists. The first part is devoted to a summary of how relativity theories were born (J Stachel). The second part discusses the most dramatic ramifications of general relativity, such as black holes (P Chrusciel and R Price), space-time singularities (H Nicolai and A Rendall), gravitational waves (P Laguna and P Saulson), the large scale structure of the cosmos (T Padmanabhan); experimental status of this theory (C Will) as well as its practical application to the GPS system (N Ashby). The last part looks beyond Einstein and provides glimpses into what is in store for us in the 21st century. Contributions here include summaries of radical changes in the notions of space and time that are emerging from quantum field theory in curved space-times (Ford), string theory (T Banks), loop quantum gravity (A Ashtekar), quantum cosmology (M Bojowald), discrete approaches (Dowker, Gambini and Pullin) and twistor theory (R Penrose).

Unified Field Mechanics, the topic of the 9th international symposium honoring noted French mathematical physicist Jean-Pierre Vigier cannot be considered highly speculative as a myopic critic might surmise. The 8th Vigier Symposium proceedings 'The Physics of Reality' should in fact be touted as a companion volume because of its dramatic theoretical Field Mechanics in additional dimensionality. Many still consider the Planck-scale zero-point field stochastic quantum foam as the 'basement of reality'. This could only be considered true under the limitations of the Copenhagen interpretation of quantum theory. As we enter the next regime of Unified Field Mechanics we now know that the energy-dependent Einstein-Minkowski manifold called spacetime has a finite radius beyond which a large-scale multiverse beckons. So far a battery of 14 experiments has been designed to falsify the model. When the 1st is successfully performed, a revolution in Natural Science will occur! This volume strengthens and expands the theoretical and experimental basis for that immanent new age.
