Larson From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia *Dewey Bernard Larson* (November 1, 1898(1898-11-01); McCanna, North Dakota - May 25, 1990 (aged 91); Portland, Oregon ) was an American engineer and the originator of the Reciprocal System of physical theory (or Reciprocal System for short), a comprehensive theoretical framework, or Theory of Everything , claimed to be capable of explaining all physical phenomena from subatomic particles to galactic clusters. In this general physical theory space and time are simply the two reciprocal aspects of the sole constituent of the universe – motion. Unique aspects of the theory are that both matter and energy are represented mathematically as greater than or less than unity (t/s or s/t), and three dimensions of time, reciprocals of the three dimensions of space. All physical phenomena are reduced to space-time terms. Larson's works on theoretical physics include /The Structure of the Physical Universe/ (1959), /The Case Against the Nuclear Atom/ (1963), /Beyond Newton/ (1964), /New Light on Space and Time/ (1965), /Quasars and Pulsars/ (1971), /Nothing But Motion/ (1979), /The Neglected Facts of Science/ (1982), /The Universe of Motion/ (1984), and /Basic Properties of Matter/ (1988). All of these are still in print, and available from Amazon.com, except for the 1959 book. An introduction and summary of the Reciprocal System is given in /The Unmysterious Universe/ (1971), by Dr. Ronald W. Satz. This work is also still in print and available from Amazon.com. Dr. Satz is currently working on a comprehensive database of Reciprocal System calculations. The philosopher Samuel Alexander asked the question "How far a science of order could be founded on this bare conception of ordered parts of Space-Time I do not know. ..." but Larson was inspired to make it his life's major work to attempt to find out. Larson's Reciprocal System is the first truly unified theory and the first general theory. From just two general postulates, Larson has derived an all-embracing theoretical universe, answering simply and reasonably such questions as: * What is the fundamental component of the universe ? * Why is the universe expanding? * Why does light behave sometimes as a particle and sometimes as a wave? * How do electrons and positrons annihilate one another to produce photons ? * What holds the "parts" of an atom together? * What is the origin and nature of gravitation ? * What is the origin of supernovae , white dwarfs , red giants , pulsars , and solar systems? * What is the connection between exploding galaxies and quasars ? * What is the origin of the cosmic rays ? * Is the universe finite or infinite? * Is the universe in a steady-state , or is it evolving? The Reciprocal System is in competition with the "standard particle model" of conventional theoretical physics and also with "string theory ." Larson also wrote on economic policy and theory.
