About Us

Kofi Busia, author of the material on this site, is a graduate of Oxford University. He gained a place with science credentials, but instead changed to do his undergraduate degree in Oxford's distinctive Philosophy, Politics and Economics. He was then able to combine his interests with a study of how diseases are contracted, transmitted, and treated socially, genetically, and medically in both traditional and more complex societies. He therefore followed with graduate studies in Medical Anthropology, which suitably brought together his studies to that point in both the sciences and the arts. His researches in Medical Anthropology required extensive studies in the history of both biology and energy, with a particular emphasis on thermodynamics. The unusual combination of skills needed to model and contrast such disparate societies and their disease processes ultimately led him to the first of the four models he was eventually able to construct for biology and ecology. That first thermodynamic model incorporated the three constraints that he discovered, and to which all biological organisms are subject. He noted that this model depended heavily on the constraint of constant equivalence, and this convinced him that other models based on each of the other two constraints must exist. He was eventually able to repeat his discoveries and to use each of the three constraints as the foundation for a distinct model. The constraint of constant propagation led to a dynamics-based model while the constraint of constant size led to a wave-based one. Still not satisfied with that, and in search of comprehensiveness and complete rigour, Kofi Busia set himself the task of constructing a fourth model circumscribing them all. That fourth model is the vector-based one presented on this site. It is certainly the most involved, but it is also far and away the most rigorous. Its foundations are two of the most demanding, and in their turn the most rigorous, of all theorems in the pantheon of science and physics: the Liouville theorem and the Helmholtz theorem. The former establishes the boundary conditions for a population's biological activities, while the decompositions of the latter establish the uniqueness of each species or population. All four models are supported and validated by the experiments conducted with Brassica rapa, and as detailed elsewhere on this site (description, and analysis). Their completion and culmination is both a general theory and a quantum theory of biology.
