The global reference frames of classical mechanics and relativity are abandoned: space is defined from a one-dimensional local reference frame, and time is considered discrete. Applying the principle of parsimony to the derivation of this single law leads to the rejection of many concepts from classical mechanics and relativity, retaining only proper acceleration as the sole absolute quantity.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eThe construction of this unified law of motion paves the way for a rational resolution of phenomena relating to mechanics, special and general relativity, electromagnetism and, more broadly, physics as a whole\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\u003cdiv\u003e \u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eJean-Paul Caltagirone\u003c\/b\u003e is Professor Emeritus at the National Polytechnic Institute of the University of Bordeaux, France.
