Early Praise for The Fourth Phase of Water

“The most informative, eye-opening, mind-blowing book that I ever recall reading.”
—Henry Bauer, Dean Emeritus, Arts and Sciences, Virginia Tech

Synopsis

A fantastic voyage through water, revealing a hidden universe teeming with physical activity and providing answers so simple that any curious person can understand.

Author, Gerald Pollack and colleagues at his University of Washington laboratory have discovered that water is NOT always H2O. When touching most surfaces, water transforms itself into so‐called Exclusion Zone (EZ) water, whose formula is H3O2. EZ water differs in all respects from H2O. And, there is a lot of it, everywhere.

The Fourth Phase of Water: Beyond Solid, Liquid, and Vapor documents this fundamental discovery and uses it to explain common everyday phenomena, which you have inevitably seen but not really understood.

Professor Gerald Pollack writes in a clear, eloquent style. Whimsical illustrations and simple diagrams help get his points across in a reader‐friendly manner perfectly suitable for non‐experts.

More Praise

“The most original thinker I have ever met.”
—Csaba Galambos, University of Colorado
“Brilliant! Read the last chapter first.”
—Molly McGee, University of Washington
“This is like getting new glasses! The clarity is astounding.”
—Charles Cushing, Independent Scientist
“Dr. Pollack is one of the pioneers in this field, and his discoveries can be expected to have important implications.”
—Brian Josephson, Nobel Laureate, Cambridge University
“Einstein has got nothing on Pollack. Pollack has the uncanny ability to pinpoint the right questions and grasp the simple ideas.”
—Capt. T.C. Randall, Author, Forbidden Healing
“Fantastic material with revolutionary insights. What impresses me most is that the experiments are visually instantly accessible.”
—Helmut Roniger, Consulting physician
“As good a page-turner as a Dan Brown novel. … this book has a folksy style that I know will be very popular.”
—David Anick, Harvard University
“With balance and grace, Pollack seems to have come closest to presenting a ‘unified field’ vision of matter through the lens of water.”
—John Fellows, Independent Scientist
“The most significant scientific discovery of this century. What strikes me above all is the elegant simplicity of [Pollack’s] experimental approach. It takes our understanding of the most vital substance for life on earth a quantum leap forward. Many of the experiments can be done on the kitchen table, and you don’t even need a microscope to see the results. Add to that a highly congenial and unassuming personality, and it’s no wonder Pollack is attracting undergraduates and graduates like flies, not to mention many collaborators around the world.”
—Mae-Wan Ho, Author, Living Rainbow H2O; Director, Institute of Science and Society
“This amazing book has changed my understanding of all the processes going on in water which I was confident I knew about — the understanding that dictated my many years of teaching and organized my research. I must now come to terms with the demonstration that water is not just a medium in which physics and chemistry happen, but a machine that powers and manages physics and chemistry.”
—Martin Canny, Australian National University

Sample Chapter

1. Surrounded by Mysteries

Beaker in hand, two students rushed down the hall to show me something unexpected. Unfortunately, their result vanished before I could take a look. But it was no fluke. The next day the phenomenon reappeared, and it became clear why the students had reacted with such excitement: they had witnessed a water-based phenomenon that defied explanation.

Water covers much of the earth. It pervades the skies. It fills your cells — to a greater extent than you might be aware. Your cells are two-thirds water by volume; however, the water molecule is so small that if you were to count every single molecule in your body, 99% of them would be water molecules. That many water molecules are needed to make up the two-thirds volume. Your feet tote around a huge sack of mostly water molecules.

What do we know about those water molecules? Scientists study them, but rarely do they concern themselves with the large ensembles of water molecules that one finds in beakers. Rather, most scientists focus on the single molecule and its immediate neighbors, hoping to extrapolate what they learn to larger-scale phenomena that we can see. Everyone seeks to understand the observable behavior of water, i.e., how its molecules act “socially.”

Do we really understand water’s social behavior?
