Revisiting Electromagnetic Phenomena
Author: John Purssell Ballad

John takes us on a long journey, starting with Relativistic Optics, where he shows that the Ritz hypothesis (that light propagates through space with constant velocity c with respect to that of the source at the instant of emission) forms an alternative explanation of the various experiments that make up this branch of Physics.

He then goes on to introduce the completely new concept of the "Radiated Electrical Property", which he shows gives rise to the main laws of Electromagnetism, whilst at the same time clarifying the origins of electromagnetic induction.

After examining motion under a Central Force, using the Hydrogen atom model as an example, he devotes a large part of the second half of the book to reviewing sources of EM radiation throughout the entire spectrum, and then applies the REP hypothesis to worked examples as part of a discussion of the mechanics of emission.

In conclusion he suggests that a link may exist between Electromagnetism and Gravitational Attraction.

John provides simple worked examples to illustrate his arguments and uses a lot of equations, but the maths are not that difficult - vectors and matrices are avoided. However, a firm grasp of both calculus and trigonometry would be beneficial to the reader.

The ideas presented in this text are clearly at variance with conventional wisdom and should not only stimulate a lively debate, but may have significant implications for the interpretation of present-day measurements and observations. John declares that he has no intention per se to confront traditional or established theory, merely to present the results of his study for consideration
