About the Book

The author aims to develop a scientific theory, which like Euclid geometry is logically provable. The new rational mechanics, thus obtained and composed of the eighty-six demonstrated propositions, is based on four axioms of matter, three axioms of radiation and three axioms of motion, and is recognized as a new generalization of classic quantum mechanics or sometimes called the ring quantum theory. It is widely known as the unique dynamic theory that is not subjected to Zeno's paradox of motion. In contrast to other post-Newtonian theories, radiation mechanics contains the Newtonian as a subset and requests no transition.

Traditional quantum physicists and chemists can find the consistent and concise presentations of gravitation, deformation, magnetism, electrons, surfaces, light, energy and atomic behaviors. Astrophysicists and geoscientists can also find the comprehensive demonstrations of how the Earth, Solar System and galaxies originate and evolve. Only basic mathematical and physical background is required. It is readable to most high school students and teachers, college students and graduates, professors and researchers.
