This book focuses on the need for and development of a rigorous Nonequilibrium Thermodynamic Theory, as a foundation on which to construct a relativistic particle theory that in turn serves as a self-consistent basis for our reasoning in the quantum, cosmological and life sciences, at the farthest extremes of organized complexity ? and the farthest removes from equilibrium. In Part I, Dr. Hamilton develops general principles and laws, extending those of Classical Thermodynamics, which govern the origin and evolution of systems far from equilibrium. And he shows that these principles act collectively with Heisenberg?s indeterminacy principle, as a Nonequilibrium Thermodynamic Imperative (NTI), a creative driving force in the expansion and evolution of the Universe. In Part II, he proposes fundamental assumptions, alternatives to those in the Standard Model, that lead, seamlessly and self-consistently, to the origin and evolution of the quantum Universe and its transition to the scalar expansion of the Cosmos, in which the force of gravity plays a central role. On this foundation, Part III develops a rational quantum theory in which Gravitational and Symmetry Bound Photons (GSBP) constitute the most fundamental particles in the Universe as dimensional composite fermions (quarks, electrons and positrinos) and bosons, and enabling a GSBP-Schroedinger enhanced description of the dynamics of atomic and molecular systems. And in Part IV, Dr. Hamilton develops a physical, molecular theory of the origin and evolution of life on the early Earth which accounts in natural geophysical terms for the critically important homochirality of all the amino acids in present-day living cells. The Nonequilibrium Thermodynamic Imperative drives and undergirds all creative action, at all levels, from quantum to cosmological, in the expanding Universe, including the Darwinian Natural Selection of species on Earth in which the NTI plays a fundamental physical role.
