My Garden and the Universe

Buch

A fact is immutable and cannot be changed, a truth might explain the reason behind a fact but is open to challenge. The red shift of ancient light is a fact. The explanation that it is caused by a Doppler Effect is a truth. Based upon a conviction that a universe which is perpetually expanding and with increasing efficiency is a perceived truth which is incompatible with the Second Law of Thermodynamics, David Lindsay has gone back to basic physics and philosophically attempted to reconcile the two truths. He has tried to keep the narrative simple (KISS) and comes to unconventional conclusions without denying the fact of astronomical observat… Mehr

Über den Autor


David Lindsay was born in Adelaide on 12 June 1943. He married Margie on 23 Jan 1970; he has three children, Sarah, Jodie and James; and six grandchildren, Oliver, Emily, Tom, Maggie, Eddie and Bonnie. He was educated at Grange Primary School, Saint Peter's College Adelaide, University of Sydney (Bachelor of Veterinary Science - 1970), RMIT University (Melbourne Post-Graduate Diploma in Animal Chiropractic - 2000). Professionally, he is a veterinary surgeon with particular interest in physical therapies (chiropractic) of dogs and cats. He was the National President of Australian Veterinary Association (1985-86). David is not a mathematician, neither is he a cosmologist, a physicist, or an astro-physicist, which is strange considering the meanderings of this book. David admits to being obsessive when it comes to identifying and attempting to correct mistakes. Which is not necessarily a bad characteristic in a physician or diagnostician, even a veterinary physician. It has taken twenty-five years to work out a possible answer to what he sees as a mistake made by one of the world's most famous astronomers. It has been a philosophical quest in which it has been just as difficult to find the correct questions as teasing out the answers.
