The new engineering

 

I conceived the new engineering in 1963.

 

“New Theory of Thermal Stability in Boiling Systems” (Nucleonics, May, 1964) was the first article on the new engineering.

 

The New Heat Transfer (Ventuno Press, 1974) was the first book on the new engineering.  (Russian translation was published by Mir, Moscow, in 1977.)

 

The New Engineering (Ventuno Press, 2002) was the first book that addressed the full scope of the new engineering. 

 

 

Dear Reader,

 

Thank you for visiting my site.

 

This site contains my book entitled The New Engineering.  It can be downloaded for personal use without charge, or purchased from Amazon or bookstores.

 

This site is a work in progress.  When it is completed, it will contain all of the sections listed below in the Table of Contents.  (Incomplete sections are identified by the absence of links.)

 

The conception, development, and promotion of the new engineering have been my lifework.  I have generally been publicly ignored, and privately portrayed as a crackpot.  I have met with stubborn resistance at almost every turn, and have occasionally been the victim of dirty tricks.  Nothing discourages me. 

 

I am confident that the new engineering will globally replace conventional engineering.  In 1963, I naively and erroneously thought the world in general, and academia in particular, would welcome the new engineering because it is so much better than modern engineering.  And because I was only 30 years old, I thought I would live to see the new engineering globally accepted.

 

I now realize that I will be in my grave long before the new engineering is globally accepted.
