The Nature of Scientific Explanation
In his newest work, distinguished philosopher Jude P. Dougherty challenges contemporary empiricisms and other accounts of science that reduce it to description and prediction.
The Physics Rebellion
There has been no progress in over 100 years in solving the important problems in fundamental physics and there are a growing number of problems in astrophysics still unsolved after almost 60 years. Yet 95% of these problems have already been solved by two American geniuses, Dewey B. Larson and Randell L. Mills. Their work is now 30 to 60 years old but still ruthlessly ridiculed and suppressed by mainstream science. They have been forced to self-publish most of their ideas. Dewey Larson’s “reciprocal system” will topple General Relativity and Randell Mills’ work will make obsolete Quantum Mechanics of the atom. Their basic ideas are not overly complex. They can be explicated with only a bare minimum of mathematics and easily understood by the general reader who is interested in science. However, the book also includes segregated material for the serious student. The book seeks to give a brief introduction to the ideas of these two men, including three of their brilliant students, followed by chapters devoted to unsolved problems, and shows how 95% of fundamental unsolved problems in physics and astrophysics have, in fact, been solved by the new paradigm.
The Worldwide List of Alternative Theories and Critics
This Worldwide List of Alternative Theories and Critics (only avalailable in english language) includes scientists involved in scientific fields. The 2023 issue of this directory includes the scientists found in the Internet. The scientists of the directory are only those involved in physics (natural philosophy). The list includes 9700 names of scientists (doctors or diplome engineers for more than 70%). Their position is shortly presented together with their proposed alternative theory when applicable. There are nearly 3500 authors of such theories, all amazingly very different from one another. The main categories of theories are presented in an other book of Jean de Climont THE ALTERNATIVE THEORIES
Shifting the Paradigm
Induction, which involves a leap from the particular to the universal, has always been a puzzling phenomenon for those attempting to investigate the origins of knowledge. Although traditionally accepted as the engine of first principles, the authority of inductive reasoning has been undermined in the modern age by empiricist criticisms that derive notably from Hume, who insisted that induction is an invalid line of reasoning that ends in unreliable future predictions. The present volume challenges this Humean orthodoxy. It begins with a thorough consideration of Hume’s original position and continues with a series of state-of-the-art essays that critique the received view while offering po...
How Einstein Created Relativity out of Physics and Astronomy
This book tracks the history of the theory of relativity through Einstein’s life, with in-depth studies of its background as built upon by ideas from earlier scientists. The focus points of Einstein’s theory of relativity include its development throughout his life; the origins of his ideas and his indebtedness to the earlier works of Galileo, Newton, Faraday, Mach and others; the application of the theory to the birth of modern cosmology; and his quest for a unified field theory. Treading a fine line between the popular and technical (but not shying away from the occasional equation), this book explains the entire range of relativity and weaves an up-to-date biography of Einstein throughout. The result is an explanation of the world of relativity, based on an extensive journey into earlier physics and a simultaneous voyage into the mind of Einstein, written for the curious and intelligent reader.
Physical Chemistry
Physical Chemistry: Concepts and Theory provides a comprehensive overview of physical and theoretical chemistry while focusing on the basic principles that unite the sub-disciplines of the field. With an emphasis on multidisciplinary, as well as interdisciplinary applications, the book extensively reviews fundamental principles and presents recent research to help the reader make logical connections between the theory and application of physical chemistry concepts. Also available from the author: Physical Chemistry: Multidisciplinary Applications (ISBN 9780128005132). - Describes how materials behave and chemical reactions occur at the molecular and atomic levels - Uses theoretical constructs and mathematical computations to explain chemical properties and describe behavior of molecular and condensed matter - Demonstrates the connection between math and chemistry and how to use math as a powerful tool to predict the properties of chemicals - Emphasizes the intersection of chemistry, math, and physics and the resulting applications across many disciplines of science

This enlightening book makes visible the lives and works of women who played a critical role in the development of geography as an academic field. A rare and detailed analysis of the geographical work of 30 individual women geographers from 1850 to 1970 Includes oral histories from women who have held appointments in British universities since World War II Makes the work of women geographers visible and challenges the notion of pre 1970s geography as an overwhelmingly masculine field Makes an important contribution to debates about the theoretical and methodological framing of the historiography of geography
