Al;

Yes it's quite a good book and given that he expands gravitational 
interactions to include 5 forces not just gravitoelectric and 
gravitomagnetic that would show up in a Lorentz force there is a lot there.

A review of the book is at

GravitationGravitation Gravitation and Cogravitation: Developing 
Newton’s Theory
of Graof Gravitation to Its Physical and Mathematical Conclusion,
Oleg D. J Oleg D. Jefimenko
, 367 pp. Electret Scientific Company, Star City,
2006. Hardcover. ISBN: 0-917406-00-1. Price: 22.00 dollars.


The question Which lead me to wonder is whether Jefimenko's Cograviation 
is the what Sciama addresses as The Origin Of Inertia
https://physics.fullerton.edu/~jimw/general/inertia/
http://adsabs.harvard.edu/full/1953MNRAS.113...34S  for a copy of 
Sciama's paper

Furthermore Sciama points out that newton gravity falls of as 1/r^2 
while the inertia effect falls of as 1/r Since the event horizon and 
black holes are related to the 1/r^2 does this imply we might be 
inflenced by a longer range force that penetrates event horizons both in 
black holes and our universe (assuming we are in a black hole) Now that 
people are discussing Multi-verses might it be possible that universes 
outside of our event horizon may communicate with our universe through 
inertial long range forces? What do you think? Wolf

>     might be described by spherical (or toroidal) harmonics.
