A History of Physics

In A History of Physics, Bob Kowalski takes the reader on a bold, critical, and deeply reflective journey through the foundations of science that have shaped our view of the universe. Far from being merely a chronology of physical advances, this book is a groundbreaking work: it challenges established truths, questions dominant theories, and proposes new ways of thinking about reality.

From Newton to Einstein, from Maxwell to the Standard Model, Kowalski presents the milestones of physics with precision and clarity, but is not content with repeating academic dogma. He investigates what has been forgotten, abandoned, or silenced over the centuries—especially theories such as the ether, the possibility of light with mass, and the critique of the notions of relativity and the Big Bang.

With intellectual courage, the author suggests that we are on the verge of a new scientific revolution—not an expansion of the current paradigm, but its radical replacement. In this envisioned future, the universe has neither beginning nor end, time is not a curved dimension, quarks and neutrinos are fictions, and gravity can be explained not by the warping of spacetime but by the concrete action of gravitons in a rediscovered ether.

Written in accessible and provocative language, A History of Physics is both a tribute to scientific curiosity and a manifesto against theoretical stagnation. It is essential reading for those seeking to understand physics not as a closed set of formulas, but as an ongoing adventure of thought, critique, and imagination.
