Alex Hankey
Alex Hankey (born 18 August, 1947) is a theoretical physicist trained at Massachusetts Institute of Technology and Cambridge University.〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=Yogalife )〕 He was a post-doctoral fellow at Stanford Linear Accelerator Center. Deeply interested in Vedanta, Yoga, and Ayurveda, he played a vital role in setting up Maharishi University of Management〔James R. Lewis, Olav Hammer, Handbook of Religion and the Authority of Science, BRILL, 2010, p. 353.〕 and later on became a professor at it, where he taught the first undergraduate course in philosophy of science. His current work relates to applying a combination of philosophical arguments and knowledge of Vedic sciences to solve the problems with in modern science, and thereby refining the foundations of physics, biology, and information theory.
==Education and career==
Hankey was educated at Rugby School, Warwickshire,〔(Hon. Alexander Maurice Alers Hankey ) accessdate=10 August 2015〕 and at Trinity College, Cambridge, where he attained a first in Natural Sciences Tripos.〔 Specializing in theoretical physics, he moved to MIT, to do a PhD under Steven Weinberg〔http://cosmosandhistory.org/index.php/journal/article/viewFile/417/662〕 and Eugene Stanley in the area of critical phenomena. He obtained his PhD in 1972, and thereafter he authored/co-authored many papers on the same,〔T. S. Chang, A. Hankey and H. E. Stanley, "Generalized Scaling Hypothesis in Multicomponent Systems. I. Classification of Critical Points by Order and Scaling at Tricritical Points", ''Phys. Rev. B'' 8, 346–364 (1973).〕〔A. Hankey, H. E. Stanley, and T. S. Chang, "Geometric Predictions of Scaling at Tricritical Points", ''Phys. Rev. Lett.'' 29, 278-281 (1972).〕 which now have resurfaced as applications to criticality in biosystems.〔H. E. Stanley, A. Hankey, and M. H. Lee, "Scaling, Transformation Methods and Universality," in ''Critical Phenomena: Proceedings of the 1970 Varenna Summer School'', edited by M. S. Green (Academic Press, New York, 1971), pp. 237–264.〕〔H. E. Stanley, A. Hankey, and M. H. Lee, "Scaling, Transformation Methods and Universality," in ''Critical Phenomena: Proceedings of the 1970 Varenna Summer School'', edited by M. S. Green (Academic Press, New York, 1971), pp. 237–264.〕
Working as an assistant professor at the Maharishi International University, Hankey developed unique approaches to Ayurveda, Jyotish, Samkhya, Yoga and Vedanta. He then became visiting professor at Swami Vivekananda Yoga Anusandhana Samsthana,〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=Faculty )〕 before becoming a distinguished professor in yoga and physical science there. He founded the ''Journal of Ayurveda and Integrative Medicine'' and is on the editorial boards of many leading journals in the field. He has published more than 60 papers in peer-reviewed scientific journals, and many expository articles for a general audience.
