"Discrete Event Physics" introduces a new branch of Physics concerned with elucidating the meaning of concepts traditionally studied in that discipline. It is complementary to Mathematical and Experimental Physics, being focused on the same ideas but having different specific goals.

The theory has a fundamentally dynamic nature based on structured discrete events. Events are defined and interrelated using a formal language developed for such purposes.

This volume extends the theory and discusses applications that clarify its utility in overcoming imperfections in traditional approaches to the treatment of Physics problems: the general inadequacy of the operational paradigm for property definition the long standing problem of probability definition confusion arising from indiscriminate use of the term "wave" the definition of meaning, knowledge and understanding in science the definitions of energy and entropy the solution of the paradox of Einstein, Podolski and Rosen the solution of non-locality problems in double slit interference experiments

On some great, and glorious day, the plain folks of our land will reach their hearts desire, at last, and the White House will be adorned by a downright moron!

Discrete Event Physics introduces a new branch of Physics directly concerned with elucidating the meaning of concepts traditionally studied in that discipline. It is complementary to Mathematical and Experimental Physics, being focused on the same ideas but having different specific goals. It is proposed that elucidation of meaning be based on meaning models, whose underlying theory is presented, along with a methodology for their construction through a process of stepwise refinement. The theory has a fundamentally dynamic nature, its basic ingredients being structured discrete events, causal relations between events, and event properties. Formal languages are defined for defining events and properties and for comparing definitions, in particular definitions formulated in different paradigms. The theoretical ideas are exemplified by applications to Space and Time. In this context possible answers to many of the most fundamental unresolved problems in Physics are suggested: . the nature of time, its apparent continuity, its apparent flow and directionality . the nature of space, its apparent continuity, and the reasons behind its dimensionality . the nature of matter . the possible
