"Field:
The region in which an electrically charged body (see electric field), a magnetized body (see magnetic field), or a massive body (see gravitational field) exerts its influence. There may also be said to be a field between nucleons in extremely close proximity (less than 10-13 cm) as a result of exchange forces. A field is thus a model of representing the way in which a force can exist between bodies not in contact."

(George Berkeley, 1710) ... lay the beginning in a distinct explication of what is meant by thing, reality, existence: for in vain shall we dispute concerning the real existence of things, or pretend to any knowledge thereof, so long as we have not fixed the meaning of those words. "All things come out of the one and the one out of all things." - Heraclitus "Reality is an illusion - albeit a persistent one." - Einstein "Particles give me a headache." - Ibid |
