  • Author Dr. Percy Seymour

    Dr. Percy Seymour, author of eight acclaimed books on astronomy and cosmology, received his bachelor's degree in 1964, master's in 1965, and Doctor of Philosophy in 1967, all from Manchester University. His special area of study was magnetic fields in the Milky Way galaxy. From 1972 to 1977, he was senior planetarium lecturer at the Royal Observatory at Greenwich, home of Prime Meridian of the World. From 1977 to 2003, he was principal lecturer in astronomy at the University of Plymouth. He now lives in Queen Camel in Somerset, UK.

One of the most important unsolved problems of current physics, astronomy, and cosmology is the nature of dark matter and dark energy. These two invisible components of the universe seem to control the behavior of galaxies, clusters of galaxies, and the accelerating expansion of the universe, but we do not know what they are. This book offers a unified explanation for dark matter and dark energy, and, in doing so, formulates a new theory of ordinary matter.
