The author constructs a theory that unifies gravity and the electroweak interaction on an abstract path space. The partial derivatives on this space do not commute. The Lagrangian for this theory is constructed from a so-called ``curvature vector'' which is analogous to the Ricci rotation coefficients. The author states that field equations for such a unified theory is equivalent to Einstein gravity + electroweak interaction with a mass.
