The Spacetime Jungle

This is a book series about the little-known field of gravitational physics called torsion physics. It is part and parcel to the geometrical interpretation of spacetime as a physical vacuum. The way in which these notions are related to the subject of UFO’s- mysterious, futuristic crafts that zip through our skies- is the primary result of these books. This is accomplished totally naturally, by simply applying the laws of evolutionary biology to the setting of a physical vacuum with torsion. Namely, we apply Simpson’s law of biodiversity by way of it’s clear, purely physical relation to animal locomotion, yielding a new, astrospheric geosphere in spacetime. These books are all about communicating the potential legitimacy of torsion physics, physical vacuum theory, and their implications to not only those physicists who have so far overlooked the subject, but also to the general public and any other interested researchers. For this reason, these books are fully self-contained, and are readable by anyone off the street with only some arithmetic. The first volume of this series reviews the mathematical fundamentals of differential geometry, the foundation of spacetime physics. Vector calculus is introduced, and the metric, the curvature, and the torsion are emphasized. Linear algebra then prepares the way for real analysis and manifold theory. For the convenience of the reader, a brief review of algebraic equations, trigonometry, and calculus is found in the appendix.
