    Frank Lad is the author of Just Plain Wrong: The Dalliance of Quantum Theory with the Defiance of Bell's Inequality. The educated public have long been regaled with "the mysteries of quantum physics", which enshroud far-flung claims about the fundamental nature of matter. These rely on a stunning proposition of quantum theory arising in the 1960s and contested through the subsequent sixty years: that the probabilities deriving from it defy a mathematical inequality known as Bell's inequality. John Bell himself, who formulated the problem, was puzzled by the result, and surmised that in time we would discover what is wrong with its characterisation of the matter. In this book, Frank Lad claims to have identified the mathematical error that gives rise to the misunderstanding. Addressed as a challenge to the physics community, its content is accessible to any generally educated reader who is familiar with university-level concepts of linear algebra and functions of several variables. Understanding of complete mathematical detail is not required for appreciation. Largely ignored and dismissed by the scientific community of professional physicists, here is the background to the result, and the resolution to the controversy. Frank Lad https://a.co/d/howWl6e

    Martin Nelson author of Children of the Dying Hearth and I discuss what now for America. Donald Trump is set to be the President of America again, and maybe this time the media will be a little more honest about what he says and what he has done. From misinformation to fake news. MAGA caps and all things associated to the great Donald Trump. What will happen next and will he now be able to go after the deep state and will he stop the Ukraine War. So what now for America, will Donald Trump be the best President ever? And will he take down the corrupt institutions he claims are making enemies of him. Can the democrats recover, and if they can how will they do it. Martin Nelson https://amzn.eu/d/3nFdCpl
