About the Book

The machinery of the universe: Mechanical conceptions of physical phenomena explores the principles of physics and astronomy, focusing on mechanical explanations of physical phenomena, particularly the transformation of energy and the role of matter and the ether. The work aims to clarify complex scientific concepts while rejecting outdated metaphysical interpretations, advocating for a mechanical understanding of the universe. The opening section contrasts ancient and modern ideas, illustrating the evolution of thought about forces, energy, and matter. Historical figures like Newton are referenced to highlight past contributions and misconceptions regarding concepts such as 'imponderables.' The work stresses the need for a more precise mechanical interpretation of energy transformation, suggesting that all physical phenomena can be understood through the concepts of motion and energy interaction. This perspective challenges metaphysical explanations and sets the stage for a systematic examination of the relationships between matter and ether. The subsequent chapters continue to build on this foundation, analyzing the mechanical nature of the universe and proposing a clearer understanding of the underlying forces and energy dynamics that govern the cosmos.

About the Author :
Amos Emerson Dolbear was an American physicist and inventor known for his research in electrical phenomena. Born in Norwich, Connecticut, in 1837, he made significant contributions to the study of electrical spark conversion into sound waves and electrical impulses. Dolbear served as a professor at the University of Kentucky in Lexington from 1868 to 1874. Throughout his career, he focused on exploring the properties and applications of electricity, which led to innovations in the field of telecommunications. In addition to his work in physics, Dolbear was involved in inventing and improving electrical devices. His research provided important insights into the mechanics of sound and electrical energy, helping shape future developments in communications technology. Dolbear passed away in 1910 at the age of 72 in Medford, Massachusetts, leaving behind a legacy of scientific inquiry and invention. His work continues to be a valuable reference in the history of electrical engineering and physics. He was the son of a prominent family, contributing to the intellectual and scientific advancements of his time.
