Maxwell`s equarions adequately describe electrical behavior without
resort to particles.

Art should read "Radio-Electronic Transmission Fundamentals" by B.
Whitfield Griffith, Jr. Its first chapter is: "A Brief History of
Electrical Knowledge". Maxwell`s equations are covered in Chapter 38,
"The Mechanism of Radiation".

"Maxwell studied deeply the equations he had written and noted that they
were similar in form to equations which were used to express the motion
of waves in water. This made it clear to him that electromagnetic waves
could exist, and he was able to calculate the speed at which they would
travel.

And did he mention the role of stati
cs or particles in radiation?


particles are not necessary, so of course not.

I keep on reading that radiation is not fully understood
in present day books!


which books? quotes please, not hand waving. i have given you quotes, now
you provide the ones that your theory is based on.

Give me a book that does understand and provide
the role of particles and then make us all happy


go back to one of the aetherist's and you can have all the particles
propagating waves that you want... but they still won't work like your
neutrino/carbon things hopping off diamagnetic materials.
