Abstract

This book includes a concise summary and analysis of the conclusions, drawn from the completion of many complex projects, both described in literature and experienced by the author himself.

I don’t demand that a theory correspond to reality because

I don’t know what it is.

Reality is not a quality you can test with litmus paper.

All I am concerned with is that

the theory should predict the results of measurements.

Stephen Hawking [196]
