And Other Light Mysteries

Book Cover & Preview Text
Who will read this book? More to the point, who will believe it and take it seriously and perhaps even help to progress this work. Perhaps other amateur physicists, who have a fascination with light will read it with interest. Hopefully it will also be read by experts in the scientific community. Perhaps some specialists in light physics may be fascinated by the title and interested to find out more about the ideas contained in it. Some may look at it just for fun, others may quickly review it and dispose of it but some may take it seriously. Others may even just have the intention of disproving all or some of the ideas. Any reason would be acceptable. Hopefully those who find some value in the bold ideas will try and investigate them further and even help to prove and promote some of them. Amateurs and experts who persevere will be rewarded. They may even come up with some new ideas and be brave enough to publish them also.

About the Book
This book is not a textbook or a reference book but is a technical book. It attempts to provide simpler explanations for some strange light "behaviour" than existing theories provide. It describes light behaviour in terms of more tangible concepts without the need for mysterious quantum physics or complicated mathematics. It contains useful general information on the physics of light but only for background. While there is an element of myth busting about this book, I don't believe existing light theories are completely wrong—some are just incomplete or based on misinterpretations of observations. Current light theory has been good enough to help us understand what we see from the edges the universe down to almost atomic scales and many levels in between. But the explanation of what light really is and how it does what it does seems incomplete. Will this book explain everything about light, perhaps not! But as you realise the significance of my light ideas on the science of the atom and the universe you may be surprised.
About the Author
So who is Col Parkes, and what is his claim to fame? How can he even review, let alone question, the great works of famous physicists and even propose bold, new ideas? He is not a well-known scientist or a reincarnated genius and has never worked in a patent office. Surely, he is not in the league of brilliant men who have developed great theories of physics. He is just an amateur, or perhaps an armchair physicist with a fascination for most aspects of physics and a desire to ask questions and challenge uncertainty, even in areas of physics considered to be too complex for “non-experts” and already well addressed. However, new insights into the physics of light are proposed that, when proven, will be just as profound.
