For those seeking to understand the differences between electromagnetic forces and the properties of cohesive plasma, E.P. Dollard’s recent publication offers a comprehensive historical overview of polyphase power systems. Moreover, it presents the fundamental differential equations utilized to quantify longitudinal pulses and transverse electromagnetic waves (erroneously attributed to H. Hertz) within mainstream electrophysics. It is essential to acknowledge that modern electrical physics has its flaws.
While Dollard may possess eccentric tendencies and can be challenging to interact with personally – as evidenced by encounters at Energy Conferences – it is undeniable that his expertise in the history of electrical science is unparalleled. As such, Dollard is fittingly regarded as Whitaker’s successor in the realm of electrical history.
