During the last years of his life Einstein tried unsuccessfully to
unify electromagnetic force with gravitational force geometrically.
The nearest he got was through the ideas of Kaluza and Klein who
appended a tiny fifth commuting coordinate to spacetime.
Researchers have followed in those footsteps by adding at least six
more such minuscule coordinates so as to incorporate the other
forces of nature, culminating in string theory - which has
unfortunately not met with experimental support. Other proposals
have likewise failed or are still waiting to be confirmed
experimentally.The author shows that one can successfully unify
gravity with electromagnetism geometrically by adding a single
complex anticommuting coordinate to spacetime, which can be
associated with the property of 'electricity'. By adding extra four
anticommuting properties ('chromicity' and 'neutrinicity'),
associated with strong and weak interactions, one can get a unified
picture of all the natural forces and particles including the
'standard model': The whole construct relies upon the full
specification of events and automatically allows for replication of
particle families. The monograph traces the history of attempts of
unification before explaining the author's 'where-when-what'
scheme.
