    About this ebook

    From the beginning of physics, there have been those who imagined they would be the last generation to face the unknown. In 1900, the British physicist Lord Kelvin is said to have pronounced: "There is nothing new to be discovered in physics now. All that remains is more and more precise measurement." The problems that physicists must solve today are, to a large extent, questions that remain unanswered because of the incompleteness of the 20th century's scientific revolution. It is believed that, if a large number of people have worked on a problem for many years and the solution remains unknown, it may mean that the answer is not easy or obvious or this may be a question that has no answer. To differ from others, who get tired while thinking, Balungi locks himself up, in his room alone, in quite and solves some of the fundamental problems in physics. Balungi not only provides a brilliant layman’s overview of current research as he attempts to build a ‘theory of everything’, but also questions many of the assumptions that lie behind physical theories in an attempt to provide new approaches and solutions to the current unsolved problems in physics. In doing so, he describes some of the daring, outlandish ideas that will propel research in years to come. Some of the problems that Balungi solves include;
    1.The problem of quantum gravity. In which he solves the information paradox problem and also resolve the singularities that plague the General relativity theory
    2.The Irreducible Anomaly in the Observations of the Deflection of Light by the Sun
    3. Is there a Classical Formula of the Force of the Cosmological constant?
    4. Is There a Limit To How Small Black Holes Can Become?
    5. What is the Origin of Mass?
    6. How can we derive the Bekenstein-Hawking Area-Entropy Law from first Principles?
    7. Can we Quantize Gravity?
    8. The Wave Particle Duality
    9. What is Semi-Classical Gravity?
    10.The Extra Dimension Problem
    11. The Theory of Everything
    12. How can the Laws of Physics be derived from one Underlying Principle?
    13.Is Gravity and the Laws of Physics Emergent?
    14. The Galaxy Rotation Problem
    15. The Cosmological Constant Problem

    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.
