About the Book
Light: Neither a Wave, Nor a Photon by Sandeep Chavan challenges one of the most enduring pillars of modern physics-the very nature of light itself. For over a century, science has been split between two explanations: light as a wave or light as a stream of photons. In this groundbreaking work, Chavan dismantles both interpretations and presents a bold, unified alternative through his original framework-Universal Energy Dynamics (UED).
Drawing from years of independent research, Chavan introduces concepts like Structured Vacuum Energy (SVE), Alignment Tension Theory (ATT), Ripple Delay, and Alignment Zones, revealing a new way to understand light without forcing it into the restrictive categories of wave or particle. Instead, he demonstrates that light is a manifestation of ripple alignment in a structured vacuum-neither oscillating through space nor traveling as discrete packets, but existing as a field-driven phenomenon that connects observer and reality in real time.
Far from being a dry academic treatise, Light: Neither a Wave, Nor a Photon blends rigorous scientific reasoning with clear, accessible explanations. Chavan carefully dismantles the contradictions in mainstream optics, quantum mechanics, and relativity, showing why these frameworks fail to fully explain light's behavior. Each chapter takes the reader deeper into the mechanics of ripple fields, energy equilibrium, and the observer's role, while avoiding unnecessary mathematics so that the core principles remain open to both scientists and curious readers alike.
For students, educators, and researchers, this book offers fresh insight and testable predictions that can inspire new experiments. For general readers fascinated by the mysteries of the universe, it offers a compelling journey into the heart of reality itself-guided by an author who is unafraid to challenge convention and question authority.
Whether you approach it as a physicist seeking conceptual clarity, a philosopher intrigued by the relationship between observation and existence, or a lifelong learner who wants to see beyond the limits of established science, Light: Neither a Wave, Nor a Photon will change the way you think about light-and perhaps about the universe.
Sandeep Chavan is a physics educator, independent researcher, and author of more than 70 books spanning science, philosophy, and human behavior. His Universal Energy Dynamics framework is redefining fundamental concepts in physics, offering a cohesive, testable alternative to the fragmented theories of the modern era.

About the Author
Sandeep Chavan is a globally recognized author, independent physicist, and acclaimed industrial engineer with over two decades of multidisciplinary impact. Having served in leadership roles at multinational giants like Siemens, John Deere, and TATA, he has contributed extensively to advancements in industrial systems, manufacturing strategies, and operational excellence. Beyond industry, he has emerged as a visionary thought leader, actively redefining modern science, education, and global economic understanding.
As the creator of Universal Energy Dynamics (UED)-a radical scientific framework challenging the foundations of classical and modern physics-Chavan is leading a paradigm shift in how we perceive energy, matter, consciousness, and existence itself. His theory, now gaining traction in academic and independent circles, replaces outdated force-based models with ripple-field logic, offering a coherent explanation of gravity, light, time, and life as field consequences rather than absolutes.
Chavan's bestselling works span a wide range of topics-from the Indian economy and strategic investment to human behavior, decision-making, psychology, and spiritual science. His ability to decode complex subjects into practical wisdom has inspired readers globally. With more than 100 published books, several bestsellers, and featured placements on international platforms like Smashworld, his voice now echoes in the domains of science, philosophy, education, and self-transformation.
A passionate educator and founder of Gyrus Education, he has mentored thousands of students and professionals through lectures, seminars, and workshops, focusing on intellectual clarity, ripple-based psychology, and independent thinking in a rapidly changing world.
Sandeep's literary universe is not just informative-it's transformational. His works offer a new way to think, act, and align-with the universe, with others, and with oneself.
