About the Author
I am a physical chemist and started my career in 1959 at the National Chemical Laboratory,
Teddington, UK, in the division of Chemical Thermodynamics determining the physical
properties of pure organic compounds. In 1966 I took two years leave to study at
the University of Strathclyde, Glasgow to do an MSc degree in analytical chemistry
followed by an MSc in forensic science. I returned to NCL where I developed a technique
to measure the solubility of one liquid in another. When the NCL was replaced by
the Laboratory of the Government Chemist I headed a project to determine the surface
properties of minerals, and later extended it to metals and polymers. I had just
made a major breakthrough in the understanding of surface energies when the LGC
was privatised, and to facilitate this change it was decided to end most of the
research work. I therefore took early retirement in order that I could write up
my work.
My experimental studies were sufficient to fill a book, but as my studies did not
conform to the current explanations of surface tensions and energies I immersed
myself into the theoretical aspects of energy. It was intended to be one chapter
in this book, but very slowly it grew until I had sufficient material for a second
book. I then discovered that my theory not only explained surface energies, it could
explain many observations in physics, chemistry, geology and astronomy. It was then
that I decided to call my theory Fluid Energy Theory.
Further years passed as I tried to find something that could not be explained by
FET during which I amassed sufficient material for a further
book. The breadth of my theory is so vast that I have not had the time to study
each area as thoroughly as I would like. However, I have now reached the stage where
I can not find even one experimental piece of evidence that conflicts with my theory
and have therefore made the decision to start publishing.
