    About this ebook

    This is  your chance to read one of the century's most influential physicist breaking down one of the most fundamental theory of physics with great style and elegance.

    In a nutshell Balungi distills the essence of Quantum Gravity without assuming any prior math or physics background in his book. He doesn't use any calculus, any abstract algebra, heck he doesn't even mention complex numbers once! Incredible! Here Balungi provides a classic, modern and definitive introduction to QG (namely, quantum gravity), that part of a quantum theory of gravity describing the nature of space, time and matter beyond Einstein. This wonderful and exciting book is optimal for physics graduate students and researchers.The physical explanations are exceedingly well written and integrated with formulas for CIA, NASA and Nuclear Weapons ProgramsNow with a New Chapter: Is There a Limit to How Small Black Holes Can Become?

    Balungi Francis

    Balungi Francis was born in Kampala, Uganda, to a single poor mother, grew up in Kawempe, and later joined Makerere Universty in 2006, graduating with a Bachelor Science degree in Land Surveying in 2010. For four years he taught in Kampala City high schools, majoring in the fields of Gravitation and Quantum Physics. His first book, "Mathematical Foundation of the Quantum theory of Gravity," won the Young Kampala Innovative Prize and was mentioned in the African Next Einstein Book Prize (ANE).  He has spent over 15years researching and discovering connections in physics, mathematics, geometry, cosmology, quantum mechanics, gravity, in addition to astrophysics, unified physics and geographical information systems . These studies led to his groundbreaking theories, published papers, books and patented inventions in the science of Quantum Gravity, which have received worldwide recognition. From these discoveries, Balungi founded the SUSP (Solutions to the Unsolved Scientific Problems) Project Foundation in 2004 – now known as the SUSP Science Foundation. As its current Director of Research, Balungi leads physicists, mathematicians and engineers in exploring Quantum Gravity  principles and their implications in our world today and for future generations. Balungi launched the Visionary School of Quantum Gravity  in 2016 in order to bring the learning and community further together. It’s the first and only Quantum Gravity physics program of its kind, educating thousands of students from over 80 countries. The book "Quantum Gravity in a Nutshell1", a most recommend book in quantum gravity research , was produced based on Balungi's discoveries and their potential for generations to come. Balungi is currently guiding the Foundation, speaking to audiences worldwide, and continuing his groundbreaking research.
