Biografía editar

Afirmó haber trabajado con Albert Einstein en la teoría del campo unificado.[2]​ Alegó además que este trabajo estaba basado en la teoría del siglo XVIII del filósofo natural Ruđer Bošković.[3]

Whyte propuso lo que denominó "el principio unitario" para unificar las teorías de la física.[4]​ El trabajo experimental de esta teoría fue llevado a cabo por Leo Baranski.[5]
