#58 Gerald Pollack: “Electrical charge is absolutely central to all of weather"

Tom Nelson

Gerald Pollack received his PhD in biomedical engineering from the University of Pennsylvania in 1968. He then joined the University of Washington faculty and is now professor of Bioengineering. He is also Founding Editor-in-Chief of the journal, WATER, convener of the Annual Conference on the Physics, Chemistry and Biology of Water, and Executive Director of the Institute for Venture Science.

His interests have ranged broadly, from biological motion and cell biology to the interaction of biological surfaces with aqueous solutions. His 1990 book, Muscles and Molecules: Uncovering the Principles of Biological Motion, won an “Excellence Award” from the Society for Technical Communication. His 2001 book, Cells, Gels and the Engines of Life, and his newest book, The Fourth Phase of Water: Beyond Solid, Liquid, and Vapor won that Society’s “Distinguished Award,” their highest distinction. The latter book went on to receive the World Summit Excellence Award.

The underlying background appears in my book, "The Fourth Phase of Water", which has become popular: http://www.amazon.com/The-Fourth-Phase-Water-Beyond/product-reviews/0962689548 . Details of the application to weather will appear in my forthcoming book, to be published ~mid 2023. -- "Charged: The Unsuspected Role of Electricity in the Workings of Nature"
