The Theory of Elementary Waves: A New Explanation of Fundamental Physics, by Dr. Lewis E. Little, upends the standard view of quantum mechanics. His new theory explains activity at the sub-atomic level with the same understanding of cause and effect that governs all other science: In other words, the Theory of Elementary Waves (TEW) "makes sense of the physical universe."
The science of physics should allow us to understand the physical world, from galaxies to sub-atomic particles. Yet quantum mechanics has produced a sad irony, namely that millions of high school and college students consider physics to be virtually incomprehensible.
Explanations under quantum mechanics include a variety of contradictions. Most prominent is that elementary particles simultaneously exhibit the properties and behavior of particles and waves, a notion which produced the claim that a single particle—or at least it’s “potential”—can be in two places at once. The links in this chain of absurdity have led to bizarre extremes, such as the idea of backwards time, curved space and the comment from a well-known physicist that "the moon is demonstrably not there when nobody looks."
The time is ripe for a credible challenge to the formalisms of quantum theory. The Theory of Elementary Waves presents:
A full critique of quantum theory, including Heisenberg's Uncertainty Principle, Bell's Theorem, the "double-slit" experiment and such topics as "dark matter."
An entire chapter on how TEW provides a physical explanation of Einstein's theory of relativity.
How TEW sheds new light on the physics of the atom and atomic decay.
Suggestions for future research, not just in physics but in chemistry and biology as well.
In the book’s foreword, best-selling author Robert Prechter credits Dr. Little with "a vision as revolutionary as that of Copernicus 350 years earlier," and writes "he not only revolutionizes the fundamentals of sub-atomic physics but also reclaims the fundamentals of scientific philosophy."
If you want to experience being at the forefront of a scientific revolution in what was formerly an unnecessarily mysterious field, The Theory of Elementary Waves: A New Explanation of Fundamental Physics is for you.
Shouldn't have been publishedJune 18, 2009 Theo 4 out of 9 found this review helpful
Look through the sample pages and you should see this book is not science, but a rant.

This book was an excellent explanation of the basic issues still being debated in the field of quantum mechanics. It clarifies the topic for the educated lay person in science and can be followed with no more background than high school physics. It is refreshing to see that old paradigms, even ones taken for granted by so many brilliant thinkers, can still be challenged effectively by someone unwilling to accept the status quo. It is shocking that something so apparently flawed is only now being truly questioned and done so in such a matter of fact, common sense manner. I recommend this book to anyone but would like to see the counter argument laid out by another expert who can write clearly and simply.
Great Book / Images are FineMay 20, 2009 Charlene K. Waldrep 0 out of 1 found this review helpful
The illustrations/images have been corrected on the Kindle. There was a problem that the publisher was not aware of. Book was reposted and the problem was fixed.

Elementary waves wave goodbye to field theoryApril 23, 2009 Michael S. Irwin(Albuquerque, NM, USA) 2 out of 3 found this review helpful
It was fascinating to read Dr. Little's viewpoint of the make up of the universe. It makes much more sense to me as a lay person than the strange modern offshoots of quantum theory, e.g. string theory and the Schrodinger cat paradox. His explanation of electromagnetism is also much more plausible than the idea of an electric or magnetic field. I suspect physics will be very differently taught 20 years from now!
