"Just like Richard P. Feynman, winner of the Nobel Prize in physics, who thrived on outrageous adventures. In this lively work that ""can shatter the stereotype of the stuffy scientist"" (SUSP Science Foundation), Balungi unifies Quantum mechanics with Albert Einstein General Relativity theory in a remarkable way.

This thought experimental book is a good introduction to quantum gravity and has a lot of interesting history about the development of the theory since 1899. It's an informal introduction to a very difficult and doubtfully intelligible theory.- doubted even by its most ingenious contributors. The reader should expect that he/she will have to concentrate hard on what Balungi says but the rewards are significant. He is a talented physicist and a good writer. If you read it carefully and stop to think about the message as it unfolds then you will get a worthwhile if imperfect picture of what the theory is saying and how it was invented, It's buried treasure and you will have to do some digging. It is a really serious attempt to do all that can be done in an informal style. Balungi explains and re-defines Einstein's theory of general relativity, quantum mechanics, black holes, the complex architecture of the universe, elementary particles, gravity, and the nature of the mind. This wonderful and exciting book is optimal for physics graduate students and researchers. Not since Stephen W Hawking's celebrated best-seller Brief History of Time or Carol Rovelli's Reality is not what it seems ( The journey to quantum gravity) has physics been so vividly, intelligently and entertainingly revealed."

"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."
