The fact that work can be done adiabatically on a system, with no change in the energy stored within its boundaries (Zimmels, 1995, 1996a,b;1997;1999; 2002), and energy of a system can be changed with no work or heat delivered in its own frame of reference, calls for reformulation of the first law in the presence of fields.
