It is totally free and fried! I read the document and see many holes in the argument.
Once when I was more naive I thought about the magnetic field surrounding a wire broken by a capacitor coupling device. As I visualized the magnetic field due to the current, I began to think that there must be a gap or discontinuity since no real current is flowing within the capacitor. Between the plates there is only an electric field that is changing as charge is being added or subtracted from the plates of the capacitor. Then it occurred to me that this was in fact the famous displacement current that Maxwell was suggesting. At that point I realized that the external magnetic field could be smooth and continuous. The author of the document states in no uncertain terms that such a time changing electric field can not generate a magnetic field and he is obviously wrong. It was an interesting read but I suspect it was related to an April fools joke or something similar.

FYI: this forwarded to me by a colleague… -Mark Trouble with Maxwell’s Electromagnetic Theory: Can Fields Induce Other Fields in Vacuum? http://vixra.org/pdf/1206.0083v5.pdf Abstract The purpose of this article is to point out that Maxwell’s electromagnetic theory, believed by the majority of scientists a fundamental theory of physics, is in fact built on an unsupported assumption and on a faulty method of theoretical investigation. The result is that the whole theory cannot be considered reliable, nor its conclusions accurate descriptions of reality. In this work it is called into question whether radio waves (and light) travelling in vacuum, are indeed composed of mutually inducing electric and magnetic fields.
