“The divergence from the Newtonian model did not come abruptly but began with changes in the nineteenth century. The first was the discovery and investigation of magnetic phenomena, which could not be described appropriately by the mechanical model as it involved a new type of force. This study of subtler concepts of fields without reference to material bodies was a profound change.” — Rico Roho
