Abstract

Critical examination of electromagnetic theory foundations, with extensive coverage of Ampère's original force law, Weber's electrodynamics, and alternatives to Maxwell-Lorentz theory. Argues that Ampère's force law (with longitudinal forces between current elements) is more fundamental than the Lorentz force. Contains detailed mathematical analysis of forces between current-carrying conductors and current loops. CRITICAL for VIC/WFC research: provides theoretical basis for u...
