Beschreibung
Charged explores a bold rethinking of natural phenomena by framing the Earth not as an electrically neutral sphere, but as a charged body with far-reaching consequences. It begins by establishing the Earth's negative charge and then examines how this perspective sheds light on fundamental dynamics such as the origin of the magnetic field, the rotation of the planet, and the forces driving weather. From rainfall to typhoons and tornadoes, electrical charge emerges as a unifying principle for explaining atmospheric processes in ways that go beyond traditional meteorology.

This electrical paradigm is extended to broader mysteries of nature, including gravitation, which is reconsidered not as mass-based attraction alone but as an interaction between electrical charges within matter--potentially explaining puzzling anomalies like gravitational variability from summer to winter, and during eclipses. The same principles are applied to motion and lift: whether dust particles, birds, planes, fish, or sailboats, movement through air or water is reinterpreted as a consequence of charge interactions with the Earth. Taken together, these sections propose an alternative framework in which electricity plays a central, often overlooked role in shaping the forces and motions of the natural world.

Über den Autor
Scientist, speaker, and author, Gerald H. Pollack (Jerry) is recognized worldwide for identifying water's fourth phase -- H3O2. He is known for his open-minded approach -- with ideas and with [...] work with water earned him the inaugural Emoto Peace Prize, as well as the Prigogine Medal for Thermodynamics, and the NIH Director's Transformative R01 Award.

Pollack is the founding Editor-in-chief of the research journal WATER, founding Executive Director of the Institute for Venture Science, and organizer of the annual International Conference on the Physics, Chemistry, and Biology of Water. Further, he was awarded an honorary doctorate from Ural State University in Ekaterinburg, Russia, and was more recently named Honorary Professor of the Russian Academy of Sciences, and Foreign Member of the Srpska Academy. Pollack is a Founding Fellow of the American Institute of Medical and Biological Engineering and a Fellow of both the American Heart Association and the Biomedical Engineering Society. The University of Washington has bestowed on him their highest faculty distinction, the Faculty Lecturer Award.
