LAW & SCIENCE

Science is progress. Its transcends time, all disciplines and has profound impact in all aspects of life. 

There was no difficulty in publication of the articles in this chapter; except the article 'NATURE IS ASYMMETRICAL'.  In the early 1990's, I had sent it to many magazines and newspapers for publication without any success.   May be the relationship between the ‘Gay Rights’ and ‘Parity Conservation and Mirror Images’ is too weak or it might have been controversial for those times.  It was ultimately published in late 1990's. 

So far as the relationship is concerned, Dr. Jim Samuelson, a high energy physicist from Sweden says,

'The reason why Mr. Yatindra Singh uses the violation of parity conservation as an argument for the rights of homosexuals is, even if well intended, not entirely transparent. I guess one could use the same phenomenon as an argument against those rights: Since nature allows asymmetry, that might indicate that she also wants asymmetry in sexual relationships namely one representative from each gender not two from both ....

Apart from that, the author seems to have a fairly good grasp of the physics he is discussing. For example he does get the conservation of angular momentum in connection with ice skating right; not everyone does. The  statement about symmetry of time is a bit dubious though. As he states it, it is correct – as far as we know: the laws of nature do not change with time.'

I am neither Gay nor do I approve of homosexuality; though, I respect them and have no difficulty in existing with them. Some of my very good friends were or are gay. 

Well, why did I write this article; a good question.

The bond between the ideas in different fields fascinates me. It is for this reason that the two articles in this chapter were written. 

IT LIES IN THE HEART
(These articles were written before I was elevated as the High Court judge on 5th February 1999 and were also published. Since then they have been updated.)
