?The Final Theory?, by M. McCutcheon

I am a newcomer to this book which may have received some discussion here before my time. I just bought it and only read about 50 pages so far. This author really goes after Newton?s gravitation formulas and I was wondering if there are some of you that have considered his comments on Newton?s stuff and what you think about it?

I can verify from my own efforts that the orbit of a planet around the sun is equivalent to orbital velocity and has nothing to do with the mass of the orbiting object. You can track every mile from the sun going out and precisely calculate the orbital velocity for an object in that position, with out regard to the objects mass. However, I would hesitate to debate with Newton, ever.
