Synopsis

One of the most important unsolved problems of current physics, astronomy, and cosmology is the nature of dark matter and dark energy. These two invisible components of the universe seem to control the behavior of galaxies, clusters of galaxies, and the accelerating expansion of the universe, but we do not know what they are. Dark Matters offers a unified explanation for dark matter and dark energy, and, in doing so, formulates a new theory of ordinary matter.

Central to this new theory is the concept of electric lines of force, encased in something called insulating space, which means we are generally not aware of them, just as we are not aware of the currents passing through insulated cables.

The essential feature of Dark Matters that sets it apart from similar titles is that it sees the whole universe as a tapestry. The background "material" of this tapestry is the space-time framework of Einstein's theories of relativity. The threads of the tapestry are magnetic and electric lines of force. The magnetic lines of force originate from planets and stars; many exist as independent threads that weave their way in the vast spaces that separate the stars of galaxies.

Sure to be discussed and debated in international scientific professional societies, Dark Matters is a fascinating, essential, and accessible book for anyone interested in exploring the frontiers of physics and cosmology.
