If you took all of the mystery novels in the world and stacked them end to end, they would probably stretch all the way from Kansas to Maine. Try to imagine these works as being unfinished, or with the last chapter missing. Well, this is a very similar situation to modern cosmology. We have enough science books to stretch across a continent, but we cannot explain the nature of creation. All we need is that one book to explain how the universe was made in order to solve this mystery, and complete the science of modern cosmology. "Reflex cube and the nature of the universe" is that one book. Not everyone in science is willing to embrace the idea of theoretical physics as an explanation for the nature of the universe. But for those of us who realize that any possible answer has to come in the form of a theory in order to be appreciated, then there is hope. We will know the answer, because we are open to the idea of unknown physics, and are willing to study the theoretical physics it takes to explain them. For example, when astrophysicists began observing the gamma ray bursts at the outer edges of the universe, they concluded that the super novae had to be massive in size for us to see, and should therefore be reclassified as hyper novae. It wasn't long before they began to theorize that such an event might cause an implosion which would create a black hole. If we were to take this line of reasoning a step further, perhaps the big bang itself had another side to it we hadn't thought of before. Instead of the implosion in the big bang creating a black hole, the implosion creates gravity, a fixed force of resistance holding the universe back from running away with itself. The idea is central to the book, and eventually leads us into a language of science and mathematics to explain the nature of the space-time continuum, in a modern theorem I call "reflex cube".
About the Author: As a young person I was very spiritual and idealistic, and this was due mostly to my Catholic upbringing. The Vietnam War began to escalate, and no one wanted to explain why we were there. I couldn't understand why the older generation didn't seem to care about the war, but the truth was, we were young people and didn't know our history. The fear of induction into the Vietnam War began to loom over me as a teenager, and I became increasingly defocused from my education. I began to get into minor trouble, such as ditching school, and staying out after curfew. Rather than being shipped off to military school for disciplinary reasons, I decided to hitch a ride with older friends who were going to Canada to avoid the draft. I was fourteen at the time. After six months I returned home and got a job. I got my GED and enrolled in music school at Columbia College in Chicago. I also studied at the Chicago Conservatory of Music. I took academic courses at the Music school's affiliated University, Roosevelt University of Chicago. By the time I turned nineteen and was eligible for the draft, we had gone to a draft lottery. My number was 353. I may seem an unlikely source for some of the best scientific information on the planet today, but let's remember, this is only theoretical physics, and I am over fifty years old. Theoretical physics is not a concrete subject. It is more less a subject filled with ideas, dreams, and possibilities. It is the creative side of science, and all one really needs in order to participate is a good imagination and plenty of spirit. This of course must accompany years of study. You can get credit for attending school for study, or you can free lance and do independent study yourself, and at your own pace. Many people continue their education in this way. It's called a hobby. It means you allow recreation time for study in a specific area. My hobby became the science of cosmology, and quantum physics. They are still my favorite subjects today. I don't sight read music well, but I can play the piano by ear, and continue to write music for piano from memory. I have even written the piano part for a concerto. These creative skills have come in handy for much of the science work that I am doing today.
