This book proposes a new commonsense philosophical paradigm for modern physics, which provides a distinct approach to light-speed and gravitation, using rigorous mathematical proof. There is also a discussion chapter which examines the status of so-called, 'black holes', 'dark matter' and the 'red shift'.

==Overview==
 
The book proposes a "commonsense" philosophical paradigm for modern physics — the '''Pope–Osborne Angular Momentum Synthesis''' (POAMS) — that reinterprets light-speed and gravitation in terms of angular momentum rather than invisible field forces. In this framework, force-free motion is naturally orbital, weight arises from constrained angular momentum (so that spin can affect measured weight), and electrostatic behaviour is recast as spin-based angular momentum. A discussion chapter re-examines the status of black holes, dark matter, and the cosmological redshift.

Light Speed, Gravitation and Quantum Instantaneity is a 2007 book by Anthony D Osborne and N. Vivian Pope, published by phi Philosophical Enterprises (Swansea, UK).

Overview

The book proposes a "commonsense" philosophical paradigm for modern physics — the Pope–Osborne Angular Momentum Synthesis (POAMS) — that reinterprets light-speed and gravitation in terms of angular momentum rather than invisible field forces. In this framework, force-free motion is naturally orbital, weight arises from constrained angular momentum (so that spin can affect measured weight), and electrostatic behaviour is recast as spin-based angular momentum. A discussion chapter re-examines the status of black holes, dark matter, and the cosmological redshift.
