27. Natural Reality / A. Classical Physics / 1. Mechanics / c. Forces
21181 Relativity and Quantum theory give very different accounts of forces [Hesketh]
27. Natural Reality / A. Classical Physics / 2. Thermodynamics / a. Energy
21183 Thermodynamics introduced work and entropy, to understand steam engine efficiency [Hesketh]
27. Natural Reality / B. Modern Physics / 2. Electrodynamics / a. Electrodynamics
21199 Spinning electric charge produces magnetism, so all fermions are magnets [Hesketh]

21189 Electrons may have smaller components, bound by a new force [Hesketh]
21180 Electrons are fundamental and are not made of anything; they are properties without size [Hesketh]
27. Natural Reality / B. Modern Physics / 2. Electrodynamics / d. Quantum mechanics
21182 Quantum mechanics is our only theory, and is very precise, and repeatedly confirmed [Hesketh]
21184 Physics was rewritten to explain stable electron orbits [Hesketh]
21187 Virtual particles can't be measured, and can ignore the laws of physics [Hesketh]

27. Natural Reality / G. Biology / 2. Life
5043 To regard animals as mere machines may be possible, but seems improbable [Leibniz]
