Lancelot Law Whyte (1896 – 1972) fue un financiero escocés e ingeniero industrial.

Biografía

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

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