"Time's Dual Nature" provides a rare, common-sense approach to a usually difficult topic - - quantum physics. The book utilizes nothing more advanced than high-school algebra. It should therefore be understandable by almost any high-school-educated adult. The title of the book derives from the fact that in my theory, time is equivalently expressed in two ways: in conventional units (e.g., seconds) - - real time - - and in imaginary numbers - - imaginary time. The title theoretically could also refer to the fact that in my theory, time goes backwards as well as forwards. By going backwards, we CAN in some ways grow younger with time. And the future CAN influence the present. But regarding the primary meaning of the title, imaginary time = real time = "time". All my equations work perfectly, but only if this is the case. "Time's Dual Nature" is mathematically unique in that it reveals that quantum physics' primary constant - - the quantum of action, or h - - is not needed in any quantum calculations. This casts, as physicist Paul Dirac foreshadowed in 1963, a giant question mark on the fundamentality of the h-based Heisenberg Uncertainty Principle. That principle basically states that total reality is unknowable. I demonstrate throughout the book that this is emphatically not the case. Without h, the Uncertainty Principle has no legs to stand on. It MUST be re-evaluated. My book is the only book on the market to take up Dirac's banner. That being said, the book entirely validates quantum theory - - the most accurate scientific theory to date. Microscopic and macroscopic (large-scale) quantum effects are shown to exist. Quantum theory - - minus h - - IS a universally applicable theory.
