Excerpt from Problem of Life and Motion: An Exile
All bodies are attracted directly as the mass, and inversely as the square of the distance. This is the Law of Sir Isaac Newton, and what service has it been to man except to darken science by its council.

Paperback. Condition: New. Print on Demand. This book explores the concept of a force that moves all bodies, no matter how large or small. The author posits that this force is proportional to the mass of the body being moved and is the foundation for the movement of everything in the universe, from atoms to solar systems. The author challenges the long-held belief that gravity is the primary force that governs the movement of celestial bodies and instead argues that a centrifugal force is at work. The book delves into the relationship between electricity, magnetism, and the proposed centrifugal force, examining how these forces interact to create the motion we observe in the world around us. Ultimately, the book offers a new perspective on the fundamental principles that govern the physical world.
