This paper is aimed to illustrate the relation of concepts, such as negative refraction, light pressure and attraction, mass–energy equivalence and wave-particle dualism. At first glance, those physics concepts have nothing in common. However, on closer examination it appears that they are closely linked, although this relationship was clearly shown only relatively recently, when a scientific development introduced the concept of negative refraction.
Key words: Negative Refraction / Light pressure and attraction / Mass–energy equivalence and Wave-particle dualism
