Fields & Energy: Book 1: Fundamentals & Origins of Electromagnetism Paperback – December 5, 2025

What if the most fundamental force in nature were misunderstood—and its true nature forgotten?In this groundbreaking first volume of the Fields & Energy series, theoretical physicist and inventor Hans G. Schantz takes readers on a journey to rediscover the forgotten foundations of electromagnetism. With clarity and precision, Schantz reveals how 19th-century scientists developed a deep and intuitive understanding of electromagnetic phenomena, only for much of that insight to be sidelined in modern physics education.Why did this shift happen? What was lost along the way? And how might restoring this classical perspective help us make sense of today’s most puzzling questions in physics?Drawing on his unique background as a physicist turned engineer, entrepreneur, and science fiction writer, Schantz blends rigorous science with engaging storytelling. He shows how a clearer conception of energy, fields, and their interaction can unify the practical and theoretical sides of physics and point the way to a more complete understanding of the quantum world.This is the essential starting point for anyone seeking to understand the true nature of electromagnetism, and why reclaiming its origins might just reshape the future of science.Also in the Fields & Energy series:• Book II: Where Physics Went Wrong• Book III: How Electromagnetism & Quantum Mechanics Work Read more
