Editorial Reviews

Review

"How often does a book chip away at the frontiers of science, and yet remain readable and entertaining? This book peers into the foundations of science, logically examines the sub-microscopic particles and relates them to the puzzles of the universe. You are also told what science does not know, giving you a true sense of participation in finding the answers. Milo Wolff is a scholar of long standing and his ideas are intriguing and challenging to both the novice and the professional scientist." -- Prof. Tom Gehrels, Editor, Planetary Science Series, University of Arizona, 1995

"Written in a lively interactive style that encourages thinking and speculation for fun. A well-informed reader will come away with a profound appreciation of the mysteries they encounter during under-graduate and graduate courses." -- The Science Teacher, Wash. D.C., Oct. 1992

Product Description

Part I describes the fundamental laws underlying science. The emphasis is on intuitive understanding of the foundations of scientific knowledge to enable deciphering of Mother Nature's designs for the physical universe. It explains the six fundamental laws: Conservation of Energy, Gravity, Coulomb's force, Newton's laws, Quantum Mechanics, and Special Relativity. The book follows a trail of scientific ideas and clues from the Greeks to Newton, Mach, Clifford, Einstein, Dirac, and Feynman to Modern galactic astronomy.

Part II discusses cosmology, space and the universe. It explores their enigmas and paradoxes. Dr Wolff's role is a friendly guide to the reader, enabling her/him to understand the machinery behind Nature's laws, and to help solve the puzzles which have confounded scientists over the years. The century-old controversy of wave structure or substance structure of particles is examined and it is shown that a wave structure is the probable origin of the natural laws. The mysterious role of space itself is explored and the reader is asked and helped to choose between truth and prejudice.

5.0 out of 5 stars This is an educator's book, aimed at students who are bright, February 21, 1999

By	Cynthia K. Whitney (dwhitney@mit.edu) (Arlington, MA, USA) - See all my reviews

Way back in 1994, we reviewed this excellent little book in our dissident physics journal Galilean Electrodynamics (vol. 5, no. 4, p. 100). Hard copy of the full review is available from the Editor, Dr. Cynthia K. Whitney, 141 Rhinecliff Street, Arlington, MA 02476-7331, USA; e-mail dwhitney@mit.edu. The main point is: "This is an educator's book. It is aimed at students who are bright and curious and not overly indoctrinated. Even quite mature physics dissidents can appreciate this book. Unlike the typical text, it dwells very little on the technical details of established physics, and puts the emphasis instead on that which we do not really know. It gives a wealth of pending research topics and candidate ideas that need to be worked out. "The unknowns are the "why's" behind the most fundamental facts of nature, such as force laws, conservation laws, and relativistic or quantum behaviors. The candidate ideas comprise the author's theory of "space resonances". ..." Enjoy."

5.0 out of 5 stars essential reading, February 10, 1999

By	Da Lyrical Swami (Aldie, VA) - See all my reviews

It's clear that Wolff is ahead of his time. He delivers the most thorough and unique explanation of wave matter theory I've ever encountered. His outline of the fundamental laws of science proves invaluable to any aspiring astro-physicist. He presents complex ideas in such a compelling way that, if you're like me, you won't want to put the book down. Kudos to Dr. Wolff!!!

5.0 out of 5 stars The Wave Structure of Matter, September 4, 2005

By	Geoffrey Haselhurst "Geoffrey Haselhurst" (Australia) - See all my reviews

I know Milo Wolff very well, have met him several times, and filmed a video interview of him back in 2,000. His book (which I have read 3 times) is sensible and honest, and provides a simple explanation of many of the problems of modern physics. This is achieved by rejecting the current paradigm of 'particles' generating 'fields' in 'space-time' and replacing it the more simple foundation of waves in Space. Matter, as a spherical standing wave, causes the particle effect at the Wave-Center. The 'particle / photon' properties of light are discrete because standing waves only exist and interact at discrete frequencies (which explains the foundations of Quantum Theory and why Schrodinger's Wave Equations work so well).
This book will be very famous one day! Read it!
