Electricity Physics

Two of the boldest and most creative scientists of all time were Michael Faraday (1791-1867) and James Clerk Maxwell (1831-1879). This is the story of how these two men - separated in age by 40 years - discovered the existence of the electromagnetic field and devised a radically new theory which overturned the strictly mechanical view of the world that had prevailed since Newton's time.

Gridlocked: The Geopolitics and Physics of the Electricity Crunch The defining crisis of the twenty-first century is not a lack of energy—it is the inability to move it. For decades, the global electricity grid was the invisible hum of modern life: a silent, reliable backbone that powered our growth without question. We operated under the collective delusion that the "cloud" was weightless and that the energy transition would be a simple matter of swapping one color of electron for another. But in early 2026, that delusion has shattered. In Gridlocked, Bernd Riemann presents a "field ...

Aristotle considers ‘the principles and causes of change, or movement’ behind both animate and inanimate things. It is philosophy, not science, but over centuries affected the views of those involved in the ‘natural sciences’. The text emerged from the Lyceum, the school founded by Aristotle, and is accepted to be a compilation of texts, some of which - but perhaps not all - is by Aristotle. Regardless of authorship, its importance is unquestioned.
