About the Book
This book is the result of, my research work of nearly three decades, of youthful life . Albert Einstein 's Special theory of Relativity has lost much of its significance. As Feynman enunciated, "Great physics need not necessarily have to involve complicated mathematics." . I am not an anti-relativist, as many of the scientists, who oppose Einstein's views are dubbed, as a consequence of, science, transformed in the modern times to something, hardcore like religion. Hence, science can't be opposed. True religion, like true science allows " Trust, but verify" principle. Feynman reinforces the same "If you thought before that, science was certain - well that is just an error on your part". So no theory is sacrosanct, but is subject to modifications, that is the essence of science. But unfortunately, theories like Relativity, have become mystified to hitherto, unknown possibilities, like time travel. Time travel implies, aliens could have physically contacted us, not to mention even colonized us, even if the opposite hasn't happened. The irony, hence is that in a Universe of trillions of stars and planets, " Where are the time travelers from the future " ?. FaceBook Inc. checked its accounts, sometime back to check whether, the same futurist has opened any account, with negative result. Even the famed Stephen Hawking admitted, a sort of defeat in this regard. when he declared, " Even if Time Travel is impossible, we have to understand the reasons why is it so". In Economics, the fundamental theories of Keynes, have gone drastic revisions by modern economists, contradicted by economic theories of Milton Friedman and Friedrich Hayek, in the light of World Economic crisis, 2008 and the net result, is we accept on an amended Keynesian Theory, in a century. In an analogous manner, the special theory of relativity, actually, it lends credence to the naysayers, since there is no comprehensive verification. I have succeeded in developing an amended theory of special relativity, entirely accepting, the underpinnings of a 12th grade student, comprehensible theory . The author is an Independent Researcher and presently working as a faculty in physics/mathematics in prestigious institutes in Kochi, India. The book is presented as an international edition, suggested to be supplementary textbook for Graduate Level physics students and describes the Revision and Impact. The FB group SPECIAL THEORY OF RELATIVITY which has 17000+ adherents and the research papers one can retrieve form Google Search of my name, attests to the widespread acceptance of this theory .Nikola Tesla got it right about special relativity, when he vehemently opposed it thus, "The relativity theory is a magnificient mathematical garb, which dazzles, fascinates and makes people blind to the underlying errors. Its proponents are brilliant men, but they are metaphysicists not physicists.".The misapprehension of this theory, prophesized by Tesla has been exposed by me . Further, it has been deduced is, only meagre kinetic relativistic effects are possible in nature. Also, Cosmic speed limit is one-third the speed of light for spaceships. Finally, the greatest success of this book, a bridge has been established between Einstein and Nikola Tesla's views as far as Relativity theory is concerned.
