For all the successes of the two edifices of modern physics, quantum theory and Einstein's relativity, a fundamental description of the Universe as a whole - a theory that informs as to the true nature of reality - has eluded science for decades. Author Chris Klinger describes the development and evolution of a new paradigm called 'Process Physics', a radical information-theoretic modelling of reality that utilizes the limitations of logic first identified by Godel. First describing the historical, philosophical, and metaphysical foundations of physics to consider how the prevailing views in modern physics arose and what this revealed and contributed to the development of Process Physics, the author goes on to describe the fundamentals of the new theory and demonstrates the viability of looking outside the current paradigms to reveal that Godel's theorems provide the opportunity to re-evaluate the status of conventional modern physics. The vital insight is that the limitations of logic imposed by Godel (and those who followed) furnish the key to achieving a profound, if not ultimate, understanding of Nature at its most fundamental level.
