Thanks, but Arindam cannot take credit where not due. He is so honest, and 
that's why we doggies (dead or alive) love him. He is one of us!


For his PhD degree (which he did not take, please do not put Dr before his 
name which unfortunately some do), Arindam bought the book "Newtonian 
Electrodynamics" by Graneau and Graneau.


To quote from page 1, chapter 1 from the above book:


*****


Newton's own words serve best to describe the prevailing philosophy of 
contemporary natural philosophers. In the preface to the first edition of 
the "Principia" he said:


"Then from these forces, by other propositions which are also 
mathematical, I deduce the motion of the planets, the comets, the moon and 
the sea. I wish I could derive the phenomenon of Nature by the same kind 
of reasoning from mechanical principles, for I am induced by many reasons 
to suspect that they may all depend upon certain forces by which the 
particles of bodies, by some causes hitherto unknown, are either mutually 
impelled towards one another, and cohere in regular figures, or are 
repelled and recede from one another. These forces being unknown, 
philosophers have hitherto attempted the search of Nature in vain; but I 
hope the principles laid down will afford some light either to this or 
some truer method of philosophy."


These words apply equally to the Ampere-Neumann electrodynamics which 
followed on the heels of Oersted's experiments. Neither Ampere nor F.E. 
Neumann took heed of the magnetic circles around electric currents. THEY 
WROTE DOWN THE LAWS OF ELECTRODYNAMIC FORCE ACCORDING TO THE FAR ACTION 
MODEL OF NEWTONIAN GRAVITATION. Newton was  more precise and spoke of 
MUTUAL SIMULTANEOUS INTERACTION BETWEEN PARTICLES SO AS NOT TO CREATE THE 
IMPRESSION OF SOMETHING TRAVELLING AT FINIE OR INFINITE SPEED BETWEEN THE 
INTERACTING ELEMENTS OF MATTER.

From chapter 3, p 91


*****
More than anyone else, Maxwell was responsible for making the 
Ampere-Neumann theory obsolete, AT LEAST TEMPORARILY. ...This chapter 
summarizes the various extension of Newtonian electrodynamics which have 
been made during and since the time of Maxwell.


...the evolution of digital computers. It made it possible to explore the 
predictions of the laws of Ampere and Neumann to a breadth and depth that 
remained hidden to the founders of Newtonian electrodynamics...


There can be no doubt that Ampere himself believed his electrodynamic 
forces acted directly on the conductor metal, rather than the subtle 
electric fluid that contained in the metal. THE AMPERE FORCES WERE 
PONDEROMOTIVE FORCES, JUST LIKE THE FORCES OF GRAVITATION. The matter that 
experienced the forces did not necessarily move and, therefore, Ampere's 
force law did not include a velocity.


****


Arindam's contribution is to reconcile the Newtonian and Maxwellian 
approaches, by finding out the correct formula for the law of universal 
gravitation, involving electrons and protons. From that, the cause of 
gravity is found to be electrostatic. Arindam thus unified the forces, by 
explaining how the strong nuclear force is also electrostatic. Radiation 
is of course electromagnetic, with the electric and magnetic fields moving 
proportional (depending upon the nature of the medium) to the speed of 
light.


Thanks for your interest, and with a cheery


woof-woof
