  • Thermodynamics, Statistical Mechanics, and Black Hole Entropy

    Book 6 of Physics from Maximal Information Emanation

    Thermodynamics is the oldest of the physics disciplines with unapologetic use of phenomenological arguments and mysterious thermodynamic potentials (entropy). Obviously, thermodynamics is still prevalent today, including in its more quantified form via statistical mechanics. This book (sixth in a seven-part physics series) is on the fundamentals of modern thermodynamics, statistical mechanics, and ... Read more

  • The Dynamics of Fields, Fluids, and Gauges

    Book 2 of Physics from Maximal Information Emanation

    This is a modern exposition of classical field theory, including the centrality of Lorentz Invariance and Gauge Invariance in the formalism. The exposition consists, throughout, of the presentation of interesting problems with many solved, the others left for the reader. In this book the focus is on classical fields, beginning with simple notions of field and fluid in 2D and 3D (Chapter 2), then a ... Read more

  • Quantum Mechanics and Path Integrals

    Book 4 of Physics from Maximal Information Emanation

    This is a book on Quantum Mechanics. It starts with a description of the pre-Quantum physics developments that led to Quantum Theory. A thorough description of the modern Schrodinger and Heisenberg theories and applications is then given. After the standard, undergraduate-level, quantum mechanics description, a more mathematically formal construction is made with Dirac’s axiomatic description, and ... Read more

  • The Dynamics of Manifolds

    Book 3 of Physics from Maximal Information Emanation

    Geometrodynamics, or full General Relativity, is considered in this book, #3 of the Series. We start with a review of manifolds and introductory topology definitions. Derivation of Einstein’s equations from the Hilbert Action is then done. The Cartan Method is used extensively to simplify analysis. The ADM and FNC formalisms are then described. The ADM formalism describes the evolution on a space ... Read more

  • Classical Mechanics and Chaos

    Book 1 of Physics from Maximal Information Emanation

    This book provides a description of classical mechanics, starting with the classic formulations of point particle motion. It wasn’t until classical mechanics was already well established that it was realized that there are two domains for motion in many systems: non-chaotic; and chaotic. This is a modern exposition of classical mechanics, thus including chaos theory, and including ties to later ... Read more

  • Quantum Field Theory

    Book 5 of Physics from Maximal Information Emanation

    This is a book on quantum field theory. The quantum mechanics solution for the simple harmonic oscillator is reviewed at the outset. In the context of quantum field theory this will be referred to as the first quantization solution because we are going to re-use this solution in a new way (an infinite number of times) to arrive at “second quantization” that will describe a quantized field. Second ... Read more

  • Emanation, Emergence, and Eucatastrophe

    Book 7 of Physics from Maximal Information Emanation

    This book is the culmination of the seven-book Series: “Physics from Maximal Information Emanation.” The first six books cover the key structures of physics in a modern exposition, often entailing advanced mathematical methods (for which background is provided in the Appendices of the books of the Series). In the first six books fundamental physical/mathematical elements are identified, ... Read more

  • Monetary Redress for Abuse in State Care

    Investigating a fast-developing field of public policy, Stephen Winter examines how states redress injuries suffered by young people in state care. Considering ten illustrative exemplar programmes from Australia, Canada, Ireland, and Aotearoa New Zealand, Winter explores how redress programmes attempt to resolve the anguish, injustice, and legacies of trauma that survivors experience. Drawing from ... Read more

    History, Politics and Law in Aotearoa

    Edited by Stephen Winter, Chris Jones ...
    Series series History (R0)
    This volume is the first to explore the vibrant history of Magna Carta in Aotearoa New Zealand’s legal, political and popular culture. Readers will benefit from in-depth analyses of the Charter’s reception along with explorations of its roles in regard to larger constitutional themes.The common thread that binds the collection together is its exploration of what the adoption of a medieval charter ...
