Imagine a civilization with a technology so powerful that a single
push of the “wrong” button could destroy this very entire
civilization. As the consideration of future warfare requires the
inclusion of a unified physics, we have to deal with complex concepts
of Quantum Theory and General Theory of Relativity. The two have to be
brought together before we are able to deal with the matter of future
warfare technology in a satisfactory manner. That such a “Theory of
Everything” or “Theory of Quantum Gravity”—in
principle—already exists and had been already derived by the great
German mathematician David Hilbert. When digging deeper and looking
for applications of the “new” theory, we realized that many of the
new possibilities could also lead to quite disastrous utilizations in
military. It is futile to hope that mankind would not recognize this
potential and restrain itself from its exploitation. Thus, we thought
we better make this knowledge public and hope for some kind of global
understanding, perhaps guaranteeing the non-usage of certain
technologies. It might only be a weak hope, but in observing history
and realizing how little we gained by keeping crucial knowledge
restricted to some, thereby often only even more provoking the
development of the most horrific weapons one could imagine at the
time, we simply see no better way. This book does not provide
blueprints ready to start the developments of new quantum gravity
weaponry and strategies, but it draws the line that would suffice to
awake the right forces and trigger the best developments … before
the bad guys get the gist.
