A THEORY OF DISTANCE AND TIME |
|

|
James A. Putnam |
A new physics theory
based upon the premise that all theory should be reducible to empirical properties.
The two empirical properties, from which all mechanical knowledge is gained,
are distance and time. The fundamentals of theoretical physics are redefined to
reflect this premise. The physical properties introduced are directly implied
by measurements of distance and time. Their units are reducible exclusively to
those of distance and time. A universally constant measurement of time is
introduced. This finding points to the conclusion that: True time is absolute.
