This book is the first in a series on major discoveries in the
arena of electromagnetic energy. For the past three years I have
made numerous discoveries in the fundamental properties and
processes of electromagnetic energy and electrons. These
discoveries will advance our understanding of the universe in major
ways. This book is designed for readers of any background. I
explain all concepts very clearly, supplemented with numerous
illustrations. Some of the most important discoveries and
properties discussed in this first book include the following:
Particle-Wave Duality: full explanation and illustrations of the
solution, presented here for the first time. For over a century,
the most brilliant minds have been puzzling over how
electromagnetic energy can be both a particle and a wave. For the
first time, the cause of this duality has been solved and fully
illustrated. The true nature of the electric and magnetic fields,
fully illustrated.What exactly is the electric field? What exactly
is the magnetic field? This has been a mystery for many years. I
have discovered the true nature of these fields. The "Hidden
Variables" of electromagnetic energy are finally discovered,
explained, and illustrated. Understanding these "hidden variables"
will simplify all theorems related to Electromagnetic Energy,
Quantum Science, the Atom, and much more. The composition of the
photon, fully discussed and illustrated. The pulsation of
electromagnetic energy: This is a key process in the nature of
electromagnetic energy, and is demonstrated for the first time
here. The creation of the wave pattern: I explain and illustrate
exactly how a wave, of any type, is created. Reassessment of the
relationships between energy, frequency, and wavelength. The
relations have long been known, but from a certain perspective.
Once you understand particle-wave duality, it is time to reassess
the relationships. Detailed understanding of energy and power in
electromagnetic energy. Accurate understanding of "quanta" of
light, with detailed illustrations. Descriptions and illustrations
of all motions of electromagnetic energy. One of the best features
of this book (as well as every book in the series) is the numerous
illustrations. Every concept is not merely explained in words, but
also illustrated with detailed diagrams. On average, a chapter has
approximately 25 full color illustrations. Most of these
illustrations are highly detailed, with numerous elements in each
figure. This brings us to another tremendous asset for any reader
or student: my strong preference wanting to know the physical
reality. In contrast to most physicists, who prefer to communicate
their ideas through complicated mathematics, I much prefer to talk
of real objects and real processes. In the same way that Bohr
developed a series of physical models of the atom, I have developed
a series of physical models for electromagnetic energy. Thus, my
books have the related assets of 1) focusing on real objects
(rather than complex math or abstract ideas), and 2) showing these
discoveries through numerous illustrations (rather than a set of
equations). I very much hope that these illustrations, along with
the explanations, will help any reader and any student to easily
understand each process and property I have discovered. Therefore,
I am pleased to offer these discoveries for the benefit of the
scientific community and the general public. It is my wish that
these discoveries, models, and explanations will become
commonplace, among both the layman readers and the scientific
community, whereby more people can have a richer understanding of
our universe.

*Please note that the higher cost of this book is due to the
numerous color drawings. Yet these drawings are well worth the
price You will understand the physical realities so easily through
these illustrations. This book is the second in a series on my
discoveries related to electromagnetic energy, energy fields, and
subatomic particles. The primary focus of The Creation and Emission
of Electromagnetic Energy is exactly as the title suggests:
explaining and illustrating exactly how electromagnetic energy is
launched from an electron. Yet this book is so much more. In the
process of explaining how electromagnetic energy is emitted we
cover so many more significant discoveries. Among these discoveries
you will find: The solution for particle-wave duality for the
electron. A new understanding of electron structure and motion. An
advanced understanding of electrical current. New models of
molecular bonds. The exact process for photon emission. The reason
why one photon is emitted rather than another. My General Principle
of Energy Transfer. and, of course: My General Principle for
Particle-Wave Duality. Each of these discoveries is significant.
Together, they provide a rich understanding of energy, electrons,
and more. I have done my very best as a science teacher to make
these discoveries as accessible as possible to readers of all
backgrounds. Every concept is explained as clearly as possible,
with numerous full color illustrations. Key concepts and
discoveries are summarized in boxes, as well as a full summary of
all points at the end. Table of Contents (note that chapter numbers
continue from the previous book). 7. Creating EM Bursts 8. EM
Bursts from Power Lines and Antennas 9. Creating EM Bursts:
Molecular Vibrations 10. Electrons as Particles and Waves One of
the most significant discoveries presented in this book is the
solution for the particle-wave duality of the electron. For almost
100 years, the electron was considered to be both a particle and a
wave. Yet nobody knew exactly why, until now For the first time
anywhere, the true physical nature of the electron, as both
particle and wave, is fully understood and illustrated. I
demonstrate for you, step by step, exactly how an electron as
particle creates the wave-like patterns. I explain and illustrate
the true physical nature of the electron as wave in an orbital.
This leads to a detailed explanation of the physical nature of the
associated wave concepts of Standing Wave and the Electron Cloud.
Again, for almost a century nobody has been able to accurately
explain and illustrate the physical nature of particle-wave duality
for the electron. Therefore, this is a significant discovery and
presentation to the scientific community. This leads to the General
Principle of Particle-Wave Duality. I have combined several
discoveries into a single General Principle, which explains all of
particle-wave duality. Another important principle I have developed
is the General Principle of Energy Transfer. After spending so many
years working with energy, I have come to understand the processes
of energy in many arenas. From this, I have developed the General
Principle of Energy Transfer. In one simple sentence, I state
exactly what energy transfer is, for the majority of process in the
universe. Simple, yet profound. The applications of this Principle
will be numerous. You will also learn discoveries in the structure
and cause of motions of the electron. You will learn discoveries in
the nature of electrical current. And of course you will learn
exactly how a photon is emitted, and why one size photon will be
launched over another. There are numerous significant discoveries
presented for the first time in this book. All are fully
illustrated (hence the cost - but well worth it). The information
presented here will advance our understanding of the universe
tremendously.

This book discusses everything which decision-makers and citizens
need to know about Coal Power. The major topic areas include: Coal
Mining Operations, Mining Safety, Operation of Coal Power Plants,
Environmental Effects, and Clean Coal Technologies. Importance of
this book: In our society today many aspects of coal power are
vigorously debated. However, too often people with an agenda
present lies about coal power as absolute truth. Too often the
policy-makers make bad decisions based on emotions or on myths
rather than on evidence. Too often the citizens are bombarded with
conflicting information, leaving them confused. That is why this
book is so important. This book provides the unbiased, accurate
truths of all aspects related to coal power. I had no agenda when
researching and writing this book. I never had any preconceived
theories to prove or disprove. Certainly I had questions (the same
questions you do) and I wanted to learn the absolute scientific
truth regarding each issue. Therefore I spent a significant amount
of time to find the answers. I embarked on an expedition, a quest,
to learn the science, to understand the technologies, and to
separate truth from fiction, for all aspects of coal power. In this
book you now have the summation of my journey. In this book you
will find the accurate, unbiased answers to all your questions
regarding coal power technologies. Information Not Found Anywhere
Else: In addition to the accurate information, this book also has
information which is not found in any other book, journal, or
website. Some of this information includes: 1. Mining Safety: The
latest mining safety techniques, from experts in West Virginia and
Kentucky. This includes techniques to reduce Black Lung, which are
not yet known to the highest levels of the Mine Safety Health
Administration. 2. Temperature Data: You have heard about "global
warming" - now see some actual temperature data. Find temperature
data here that you will not find in other books. 3. Mercury
Emissions: The science of mercury emissions from coal power plants
has only recently been studied. The data is also scattered. This is
the first book which collects all the latest science behind mercury
emissions and mercury capture. 4. Global Temperature: An entire
chapter is devoted to the issue of coal power and environmental
temperature. This is a complex topic, with many factors. In this
book you will find a clear explanation of each factor, combined
with a chemical engineer's analysis of each. 5. This book also
explains the information very clearly. There are many scientific
concepts. There are many concepts related to chemistry, physics,
and biology. All of these concepts are explained very clearly, so
that any reader will be able to understand, regardless of
background. Chapter Contents: 6.1 Coal Power Basics 6.2 Coal Mining

This book discusses everything you need to know about Natural Gas,
including extraction, refining, transportation, and safety. The
information in this book will answer all questions you have
regarding natural gas including: Where can natural gas be found?
How do we extract and refine natural gas? What are the
environmental effects of fracking? How can we minimize flammability
and explosions? How does the pipeline system work? How do we
maintain the pipeline system? This book will also discuss the uses
of other types of hydrocarbon fuels including diesel, biodiesel,
and biomass. Table of Contents: 8.1 Overview of Hydrocarbon Fuels;
8.2 Overview of Natural Gas; 8.3 Finding and Extracting Raw Natural
Gas;8. 4 Fracking Operations; 8.5 Refining Natural Gas; 8.6
Transporting and Storing Natural Gas; 8.7 Other Hydrocarbon Energy

an overview of hydrocarbon fuels. In this chapter you will learn
about how hydrocarbon fuels are formed and the different types of
hydrocarbons which can be used as fuel. Chapter two provides an
overview of Natural Gas. In this chapter you will learn about the
chemicals associated with natural gas and the energy from natural
gas. You will learn the advantages and disadvantages of natural
gas. Significant time is devoted to the hazards of natural gas,
particularly fire and explosions. Chapter three discusses how we
can find and extract natural gas. Natural gas can be found in a
variety of locations, and each location requires special
considerations for extraction. The options will be discussed here.
Chapter four discusses fracking. Fracking is a general term for
using chemicals and high pressure slurry to break apart rocks which
trap pockets of natural gas. Fracking is commonly used by industry,
yet can cause severe harm to the environment, and many citizens are
concerned. Therefore, we discuss fracking in great detail,
including the process, the environmental impact, and possible
options. Chapter five discusses the refining operation for natural
gas. Raw natural gas contains numerous other chemicals, and must be
significantly refined before the gas can be used. This chapter
explains all of the major processes for refining natural gas.
Chapter six discusses the transportation and storage of natural
gas. Mostly, this means the pipeline system spread throughout the
nation. Therefore this chapter discusses the three main pipeline
systems: the Gathering System, the Transmission System, and the
Distribution System. After a general overview of the pipeline
systems, we then discuss pipeline construction, pipeline corrosion,
pipeline inspection, and compressors. In chapter six we also
discuss an alternate method of transporting natural gas:
compressing gas into liquefied natural gas which can be shipped on
trucks and ocean vessels. Chapter seven takes us in a new
direction, discussing a variety of other hydrocarbon fuels and
processes used for the creation of electrical power. Topics
include: diesel, biodiesel, biomass, and cogeneration. This chapter
concludes our discussions. In the Appendix you will find brief
explanations of terms and abbreviations commonly used by the
Natural Gas Industry. The book is completed with an index which
will help the reader find any topic easily.
This book discusses the most important concepts of hydropower.
Hydroelectric power is one of the oldest methods of creating
electricity and it is still one of the best. There are virtually no
environmental problems, there are only a few mechanical parts, and
yet we can get large amounts of electricity from it. However, in
order to make hydropower effective there are some practical factors
to consider. The book begins by explaining the basic concepts of
hydropower, and showing the reader how hydropower works. The second
chapter discusses dams and rivers. Related topics include
reservoirs, spillways, and removal of debris. The third chapter
explains how to calculate the amount of power from a hydropower
system, and offers essential hydropower calculations for any
situation. The fourth chapter provides an overview of micro-hydro
systems, with some practical tips for those readers who are
considering installing such a system. Micro-hydro systems are
growing in popularity world-wide, serving individual homes and
small communities. This chapter provides an overview of factors to
consider when installing your micro-hydro system. The final chapter
discusses turbines in detail. Whether you are building a
micro-hydro system or a megawatt power plant, it is important to
choose the proper turbine for your particular situation. In

In order for America to remain a wonderful place, we must
continually teach the keys of America's greatness.
More than just a civics book or a collection of quotes, "The
American Way" teaches all aspects of American culture and all the
keys to America's greatness. This book explains these concepts in
such a way that anyone can understand, regardless of age or
background.
Although teaching the American tradition is not necessarily new,
writing and teaching on this subject has been weak in the past
thirty years. America is not teaching civics anymore, nor does
America teach proper history. In addition, many immigrants do not
properly understand America. This book exists to fill that
void.
If you understand America, then you can use this book to help
teach those who don't understand. If you have not been taught
properly about America, then this book may open your eyes. If you
want other nations to have what we have, then sharing this book
with people of other nations will assist them in understanding the
keys to our success. Regardless of your particular circumstances,
if you want greater personal success and better communities, then
you should learn and share "The American Way."
