What is TEW?
The Theory of Elementary Waves (TEW) is an imaginative view of Nature, based on assumptions different than those of quantum mechanics (QM). The motivation behind TEW is to understand our world while getting rid of quantum weirdness. At the top, left of this page click on "Synopsis" for a brief overview. The quantum world looks very similar to the classical world of everyday experience, when viewed through TEW.
Who is Jeff Boyd?
I am a physician and mathematician passionate about the Theory of Elementary Waves. TEW excites my imagination. Before my retirement in 2020, I loved taking care of sick people. I have published 24 articles on TEW in peer reviewed journals of physics, chemistry and math (click on the orange button "Publications" on the left above). I hold graduate degrees from Harvard, Yale and Brown Universities, and I've presented TEW 18 times at meetings of the American Physical Society.
What you'll find here
Entertaining videos about Elementary Wave Theory, some of my articles published in scientific journals, and a free copy of my book: Being Sick Well. I am proud of that book because it has actually been helpful to patients suffering from chronic illnesses. Because my book does not offer a miracle cure, it didn't become a best seller.
