Michael Lewis, 2025

The Infinite Push: Closed-Loop Pulse Propulsion and the Physics of Self-Sustaining Motion is not your typical physics book—it's a radical re-examination of propulsion, energy, and what's possible when we stop letting dogma close doors. In this book, Michael Lewis strips the topic to its core, walking the reader through every law, loophole, and logical trap that traditional science uses to dismiss closed-loop pulse propulsion. With vivid analogies—shotguns in space, yo-yos, minions with sand, and the "slug" experiment—Lewis shows why most criticisms of "reactionless" drives miss the point. Instead of handwaving or hype, the book digs into the Law of Conservation of Energy and Momentum (LoCEM) and demonstrates, step-by-step, why closed-loop pulse propulsion is misunderstood, and why it might be not just possible, but practical. This is a hands-on book: Lewis invites the reader into mental experiments, real-world setups, and the creative problem-solving that defines true engineering. You'll find no jargon-laden lectures here—just clarity, challenge, and a relentless drive to test the boundaries. Chapters unfold as a dialogue, exposing confusion in the mainstream, explaining where the math is usually misapplied, and showing how clever system design can open new doors. You'll learn what happens if you stack propulsion in clever ways, why "cheating" physics never works but why using geometry and timing changes everything, and how conservation laws can be enforced even in the wildest setups. The book closes with a philosophical challenge: maybe the biggest barrier isn't physics, but our willingness to question, build, and learn from failure. For experimenters, rebels, engineers, and the scientifically curious, The Infinite Push is a new kind of science writing—one that welcomes doubt, rewards imagination, and never loses its sense of fun.
