  • Why Don't Things Fall Up?

    Seven fundamental science questions explored and explained

    by Alom Shaha ...
    "Shaha's lucid enthusiasm makes complex ideas graspable. It's an ideal resource for curious readers - especially those who don't like science - and their parents. Think Richard Feynman for KS4.- Tom Tolkien, School Reading List**'This book is officially for adults but would also be really interesting to older teenagers. Somehow Alom has, very cleverly, extended a primary school answer to questions ... Read more

  • Isaac Newton vs. Robert Hooke on the Law of Universal Gravitation

    by Nicolae Sfetcu ...
    One of the most disputed controversy over the priority of scientific discoveries is that of the law of universal gravitation, between Isaac Newton and Robert Hooke. Hooke accused Newton of plagiarism, of taking over his ideas expressed in previous works. In this paper I try to show, on the basis of previous analysis, that both scientists were wrong: Robert Hooke because his theory was basically ... Read more

  • Escape From Shadow Physics

    Quantum Theory, Quantum Reality and the Next Scientific Revolution

    by Adam Forrest Kay ...
    The received wisdom in quantum physics is that, at the deepest levels of reality, there are no actual causes for atomic events. This idea led to the outlandish belief that quantum objects - indeed, reality itself - aren't real unless shaped by human measurement. Einstein mocked this idea, asking whether his bed spread out across his room unless he looked at it. And yet it remains one of the most ... Read more

    Series Book 13 - Gravitation
    The problem of explaining the precession of the perihelion for planet Mercury has not been solved by any theory, Sommerfeld's, Newton's, or Einstein's. Sommerfeld's analysis of atomic orbits, so successful in explaining atomic orbits, fails when applied to planetary orbits. Nevertheless, if application of Sommerfeld's analysis to explaining planetary orbits is correct, one must conclude that ... Read more
