"Stress in Dielectrics" is a rather innocuous description of what is by far the most controversial aspects of Townsend
Brown's research. Simply stated by Townsend Brown in 1977:
The "Biefeld-Brown Effect," sometimes referred to as the "Townsend Brown Effect," is frequently erronously associated
with ionic wind "lifters," most likely stemming from Townsend Brown's work with electrostatic speakers/fans/precipitators, which
were designed to maximize the ionic (electrostatic) wind effect. The "thrust" created by lifters is due to the ionization of
atmospheric gases, and the apparatuses are designed to maximize that effect. Two fundamental characteristics of the
Biefeld-Brown Effect become clear to the studious observer:
