Against long-held beliefs, Wilfred Boisvert maintains that continuity of motion results in paradoxes that can only be resolved by discontinuous step-like motion.&nbsp; From Zeno's Paradox to Planck's Quantum Theory, Boisvert argues&nbsp;against the infinitessimal and the continuum, and for the finite and&nbsp;discreet,&nbsp;even for motion itself.

Whether you agree with Boisvert's thesis or not, this book contains cloud chamber photographs&nbsp;and experimental results that make it a valuable addition to any dissident library.&nbsp; The photos of bullets striking nails or other objects were taken at exposure times of 1/70,000th of a second, revealing several wave-like or strobe-like phenomena.&nbsp;&nbsp;They clearly&nbsp;show air walls (vacuums following behind moving objects), spin (both parallel and perpendicular to object motion), and disintigration (pieces of nail or bullet matter chipped away at regular intervals).&nbsp; Though both discreet and continuous streams are apparent in the photos, Boisvert explains the continuums with "superimposition", the failure of a particle to outdistance its own diameter when stepping from one discreet state to the next.

As with the experiments detailed in C. V. Boys' 1890 classic, <em>Soap Bubbles</em>, the many experiments in this book definitely illustrate wave-like, frequency-dependent behavior in seemingly continuous streams of matter.&nbsp; They deserve to be replicated, but more importantly deserve a sound scientific explanation.
