1 1 Unity The unification of distinct areas of physics leads to an explosion in the growth of knowledge and understanding

2 2 Why does a compass needle always point north? A) Because it helps sailors find the north when the stars are not visible. B) Because it is the finger of God C) Because north is one of the true directions of nature. D) Because the earth behaves like a bar magnet. E) Because there is a huge magnetic mountain at the North Pole

25 25 A Unified Theory of Electromagnetic Waves

26 26 Electromagnetic Waves "I have... an electromagnetic theory of light which...I hold to be great guns. All the properties of light in solids, crystals, empty space follow without further ado directly from mathematics. And the speed of light is predicted."
