So who is Col Parkes, and what is his claim to fame? How can he even review, let alone question, the great works of famous physicists and even propose bold, new ideas? He is not a well-known scientist or a reincarnated genius and has never worked in a patent office. Surely, he is not in the league of brilliant men who have developed great theories of physics. He is just an amateur, or perhaps an armchair physicist with a fascination for most aspects of physics and a desire to ask questions and challenge uncertainty, even in areas of physics considered to be too complex for "non-experts" and already well addressed. However, new insights into the physics of light are proposed that, when proven, will be just as profound.
