The fundamental and very important property of inertia has never been well understood. This book shows how inertia has puzzled many scientists such as Galileo and Mach, and then presents a new theory that explains inertia for the first time, and also predicts galaxy rotation without dark matter, cosmic acceleration and some other anomalies. Further evidence for, and tests of, the theory are presented and exciting applications such as new inertial launch methods and the theoretical possibility of faster than light travel will be discussed. To allow readers to use the theory themselves, some simple maths is included, and to help explain the points made, there are numerous cartoons by the author.

Contents:

  • A History of Inertia
  • Modern Physics
  • Problems at Low Acceleration
  • A Solution from the Edge: MiHsC
  • Evidence for MiHsC
  • Future Experimental Tests of MiHsC
  • MiHsC and Faster Than Light Travel

Readership: Students and researchers in physics.
Key Features:

  • It outlines the start of an entirely new formulation of physics that may solve present problems. One that has been published in journals but not as a book
  • It covers most of (astro)physics simply and succinctly so it should be of interest to the scientifically-minded general public
  • It is written accessibly for the public, with some cartoons by the author, but also includes some equations to allow interested researchers to make calculations
