Some Unrecognized Laws of Nature (Classic Reprint): An Inquiry Into the Causes of Physical Phenomena, With Special Reference to Gravitation: An ... Reference to Gravitation (Classic Reprint) - Softcover
Synopsis
A fresh look at the forces that shape our world
This book invites you to rethink long-held ideas about gravity, electricity, and energy. It argues for a unified view of physical phenomena, showing how what we call induction, conduction, and electrification may share a common origin in the same underlying causes. Through accessible discussion of laboratory experiments and historical theories, it offers a clear, readable challenge to conventional explanations.
This edition guides readers through a sequence of practical concepts and reasoning, emphasizing how observations can be interpreted in new ways. It favors general principles over rigid classifications, helping you see connections across topics once treated as separate.
- How air behaves as an electric medium and how it can carry electric effects, not just act as a insulator
- The distinction or sameness of induction and conduction in electrical phenomena
- What action at a distance could mean for our understanding of gravity and other forces
- How historical experiments and theoretical debates shape our view of energy, matter, and force
Ideal for curious readers of science history and those seeking a thoughtful, non‑technical introduction to foundational ideas about nature and its laws. If you’re drawn to big questions about how the world works, this edition will broaden your perspective without getting lost in jargon.

Paperback. Condition: New. Print on Demand. This book presents a radical re-examination of the laws of nature, particularly the universal phenomenon of gravitation. The author provides a comprehensive critique of the Newtonian and subsequent theories and offers in their place a new set of 'first principles' as the basis for a more accurate understanding of physical phenomena. The author traces the evolution of the concept of force across the ages, demonstrating how our intuitive ideas have hindered a true comprehension of natural laws. This book is essential reading for anyone interested in the history and philosophy of science, and particularly for those seeking a deeper and more satisfying explanation of the fundamental forces that shape our universe.
