This is about the history and the development of Brown's Grand Unified Theory from its inception in 1963 to 2004, a forty-one year odyssey.

• "Experiments at CERN and elsewhere should let us complete the Standard Model of particle physics, but a unified theory of all forces will probably require radically new ideas."

  Dec 1999 [A Unified Physics by 2050?]

• The Grand Unified Theory of Physics presents a wealth of areas which should be researched. We mention what appears to be the most significant and rewarding areas with which to begin.
  

• During the course of this research, I published eight books (reference numbers 2, 11, 13-15, and 17-19 from The Grand Unified Theory of Physics). The objective of these publications was to garner support for development of the theory. They also helped me to solidify the different concepts throughout the process.

  — Joseph M. Brown, PhD

• For over a century statistical thermodynamicists have searched for an inhomogeneous state of elastic spheres (i.e. a violation of the second law of thermodynamics), and also have searched to prove the homogeneous state is the only possible "force-less" steady state but without success.
  

• Scientists have proven that the homogenous state is a stable state and, of course, the state has been observed. The theory presented by Dr. Brown indicates that there is a dynamic flowing state which is locally inhomogenous but which is stable due to a phenomenon taking place within a mean free path diameter sphere.
  

• The inhomogenous state discovered by Dr. Brown shows promise of being the fundamental building-block of the universe. The state is used to produce the proton, electron, and neutrino particles and the strong nuclear, electromagnetic, weak nuclear, and the gravitational force fields.
  

• A detailed study of the complete book Grand Unified Theory of Physics by Brown will show the difficulty of the analyses required, and should give a strong indication that this theory has promise of unifying physical phenomena.
  

• Dr. Brown had hoped the publications would reach scientists with similar interests and to hear their comments on further development of the theory. Hence the title, The Grand Unified Theory of Physics — anticipating that the name itself would attract the attention of You, the reader! Thank you in advance for your interest, time, and effort taken to review this work!

$29.95	Brown graduated in engineering at age eighteen from West Virginia University, then earned his PhD in engineering from Purdue. The next twenty years he was in engineering and physics research and management for Hughes Aircraft, Boeing, and the Aerospace Corporation. He has taught at Purdue, UCLA, and Mississippi State University. In the past fifteen years, he has devoted half-time to this research.
