Keely and His Discoveries: Aerial Navigation

The book presents a detailed account of an inventor’s investigations into a proposed etheric or vibratory force and its application to propulsion and power generation, outlining experimental demonstrations, theoretical expositions of sympathetic vibration and polar flows, and a described motor concept for aerial navigation. It recounts the inventor’s struggles for recognition, endorsements and criticisms from contemporary scientists, and philosophical reflections that connect vibratory physics with mind–matter relations. Organized chronologically and thematically, the volume collects analyses by other writers, appendices, and appeals for continued research while surveying the scientific and social responses to the inventor’s claims.
