We summarise and discuss some of our previous results, which show that Bohr's theory of the one-electron atom may be derived from the theory underpinning Quantum ElectroDynamics (QED) or vice versa, and that General Relativity may also be derived from QED theory in the classical limit, if we use Newtonian mechanics in the right frame and self-similar tesseral hierarchies. We circumvent Newton's arguments against Descartes' vortex theory to show that the inverse square law for a force combined with the equation of circular motion and Bohr's quantisation of angular momentum may be derived from the vortex theory and Special Relativity. We remark on the electro-weak interaction, the number of dimensions needed, and their connection with tesseral hierarchies.
