Abstract

A close analysis of the research books by John Archibald Wheeler reveals the inner work of perhaps the most influential "relativist" from the late twentieth century.And vacuum solutions for more and more abstract mathematical structures.His conservatism led him to combine quantum theory with gravity using the mere possible physical component - the vacuum.Wheeler developed a radical monism with the vacuum as a "magical building material", the rest of the rest of the reality could be built.When this vision was challenged and developed, Wheeler's vision became more and more mathematical abstract.In "SuperSpace" (no space time, but the mathematical space in all space times) or even the calculation of logical suggestions.
