The book takes readers on a systematic journey through three fundamental areas: combustion physics, organic chemistry, and biological factors that might contribute to such events. Notable cases, including the Mary Reeser incident of 1951 and the John Irving Bentley case of 1966, are carefully reexamined using modern forensic techniques. Through detailed analysis of physical evidence, laboratory studies, and computational models, the text explores various theories, from the "wick effect" hypothesis to the potential role of static electricity accumulation.
What sets this book apart is its interdisciplinary approach, combining insights from physics, chemistry, biology, and forensic science while maintaining scientific rigor and accessibility. The text presents complex concepts through clear diagrams, photographs, and data visualizations, making it valuable for both scientific professionals and educated general readers. Rather than sensationalizing these mysterious events, the book provides a balanced, evidence-based framework for understanding and investigating spontaneous combustion phenomena, complete with practical applications for fire safety and forensic investigation.
