History: Fiction or Science? (Chronology, No. 1)

Book Description

Recorded history is a finely-woven magic fabric of intricate lies about events predating the sixteenth century. There is not a single piece of evidence that can be reliably and independently traced back earlier than the eleventh century. This book details events that are substantiated by hard facts and logic, and validated by new astronomical research and statistical analysis of ancient sources.

Calculations are only as good as your numbers.......2007-08-03

Yes, we can all agree that mainstream history is nearly 100% BS due to politics, economics, ego, problems with dating techniques, and various conspiracies. Agreed. But, I've been researching the distinct possibility that human history (in terms of civilizations) are much more ancient than we've been told, so coming across this book was very interesting to me. I wondered how Fomenko could be wrong (if at all) because he is very persuasive in his presentations. Then it dawned on me. If at previous times in prehistory, due to the various catastrophies that are well documented (comets, asteroids, planetary disruptions, plasma discharge, pole reversals, etc) the Earth was in a different position in relation to the sun, different tilt on its axis, different orbit, different rotation (in terms of velocity and DIRECTION), and the continents were in different positions, then would this not cause the ancients to see the sky (constellations) differently? In other words, is Fomenko making erronious assumptions about the physics of the Earth in pre-history, which then corrupt his data with regards to dating the relevant astrology? The last event to seriously disrupt our planet occured roughly 3500 years ago, according to other good researchers, so is it possible Fomenko has been confused by this? The vastly different physics of our planet in the not so distant past may explain this confusion, which is not to say the "mainstream" version of history is correct; on the contrary. I am not an expert in these fields, but wanted to see if this idea could spark discussion.

Pants on fire?.......2007-07-19

Will people ever read before spamming? Yes, Jesuits could not rewrite world history alone, they had help. Anyway, Dr Prof Acad A.Fomenko does not point to jesuits as the driving force of world wide history manipulation in published volumes 1,2,3;, actually he barely mentions the poor devils. Check it with 'Search inside' feature, please. China is rarely mentioned either, in fact, Dr Fomenko is completely eurocentric. Right, his theory contradicts all mainstream schools of history, because in their actual state they are all built on blatantly erroneus chronology. You don't need a mysterious cabal (conspiracy) to falsify history, the falsification is its modus operandi. It is inherent to history(ians) to falsify (distort) events, as it is inherent to humans to boast as it is inherent to power (authority) to legimize itself by referrring to glorious past made to its own order. Dr Prof Fomenko and team have identified scores of instances of such manipulation in Russian, European, etc.. history, and delivered valid statistical proof thereof. His own 'reconstruction' is completely another story. Forget c14 as a valid method of dating. W.Libby has initially discovered a brilliant method of INDEPENDENT dating. Too bad, c14 method has become a joke after a forced marrige with dendrochronology with consensual chronological scale inbuilt. Radiocarbon method can't stand blind tests, but is so very productive as a rubberstamp.

Accepted History & Chronology Must Be Changed. .......2007-04-09

There is no doubt that history as most know it is a sham, & institution's version of History both University & Church is fradulent & inaccurate. Everything was established with an agenda, The real "Dark Ages" are now when we have access to incredible amounts of information past authorities & more important 'common folk' didn't have but our institutions & educators are slow to evolve because of what has ignorantly & arrogantly been taught for too long. This is on many subjects not just Chronology.

For anyone to question "Why would a Mathematician have anything credible to say of History?" The answer is from Dr. Fomenko's preface in the book: "It would be worthwhile to remind the reader that in the XVI-XVII century Chronology was considered to be a subdivision of Mathematics." These volumes could possibly be some of the most important works to date & should be read by everyone with an interest in History, especially professors & educators who have a duty to the public. I have read both books & must say that 'Chronology 1' has some very eye opening & revolutionary information. Even if these volumes are part true the implications are profound & opens the doors to further investigations & questions which must be done. I speak several different lanquages & must say the logic Dr. Fomenko uses with "inflection" of words & words being read from left to right in one region & right to left in another then written backwards, the removal of vowels & get down to basics of words, or different cities & locations having the same name etc. is correct. Vowel usage has always been optional & varied, actually complicating linquistics & study. The first thing one has to understand is that words never had a fixed spelling in history like we do now, the spelling of words was mutable & regional, as well as names & titles of people were vast, varied & changed, NOTHING WAS FIXED or understood linear. Matters of Life & Death as well as financial profiteering yesterday & today were & are made with ignorant, illogical & conspiratorial views of history & reality, it's time people get closer to the Truth & society collectively grow up.

Very Interesting.......2007-03-07

It is a good proposal and I believe it will mature into something even better in the future. I think it deserves to be read.

History as Science Fiction.......2007-01-10

Anatoly Fomenko has written a very intriguing book, full of pictures, charts, and computer 'proof' of his thesis: backwards of AD900 we don't really know what happened or when. Between AD900 and AD1600 there is more certainty, but there is still a lot of fuzzy ground, and things don't get reliable until we get past the 1600's where the printing press made it very difficult for the perpetrators of this timeline manipulation to change anything that had been committed to print. The Dark Ages did not happen. Books were burned for a reason. One organization has doubled the actual length of its existence by expanding the real chronology. Read why.

I had always wondered why Christ died about AD33 and yet men waited until the 11th century to form the Knights Templar, the Cathars, etc and go after the Holy Land by force. Why the 1000 year gap? Turns out there wasn't more than a 10-12 year gap and he proves it using astronomy. This also implies that the planet is not as old as we have been told, and current Christian and other creationist scientists are already championing that idea without being aware of Fomenko's book. The two groups, creationist scientists and the Russian mathematical analysts corroborate each other. Fascinating.

Of course, all this flies in the face of what we have been told traditionally is the 'proper' chronology of western civilization, and most readers will experience 'cognitive dissonance' in reading this book. It means that our history going backwards from AD1600 becomes progressively more incorrect and unreliable until it cannot be trusted at all... in the space of 700-800 years.

Naturally, the curious, open-minded reader will want to know WHO did this, WHY, and did any of the events we think of as really ancient ever happen?
Dr. Fomenko is a respected scientist/mathematician at Moscow State University who has already answered these questions to the satisfaction of his initially skeptical colleagues. Most of them are now believers, a few still refuse to believe (the usual diehards), and of course the western press has ignored Fomenko's work -- for obvious reasons when you read the book. The ones who perpetrated this chronology ruse have a lot to answer for. They are still with us. That's why this book is a well-kept secret.

I gave the book a 4-star rating because I was unable to check out some of his claims; those I checked were as he said. But if even 1/3 of his claims are true, this punches a big hole in what we think is our history, the meaning of western civilization, our educational process (for repeating the ruse as gospel), and the trustworthiness of the organization that perpetrated this ruse, well-intentioned or not.

This book relates to current research into a Young Earth paradigm, to John Keel's discoveries about our planet, and Fr Malachi Martin's insights (in his now out-of-print books). We are indeed sheep who are manipulated and kept ignorant -- for a reason. While knowing what these men have to say may be the "booby prize" (as in: 'what can you do with this knowledge?'), it will provide interesting reading. Didn't someone say: "...and the Truth will set you free."?? For you to judge if this book contains the truth.

good practice.......2007-06-26

This book was pretty good prep. It did a good job of covering all the topics on the test, though I did have to reference the internet/ my chem textbook on several topics the book didn't cover in depth. The practice tests were fairly similar in difficulty to the actual one. Overall, my money was well spent, and it helped me to do well.

One of the Best chemistry books out there!.......2005-02-09

This is an absolute MUST for ANY Chemistry student doing A levels!
After reading his website , I decided it is only fitting that I buy his book, support the author of a terrific website , and maybe learn something new. Mr. Clarke has organized this book, and it's chapters extremly well , and the content is excellent. Although this book does not try to teach a particular subject in the deapth required for A levels it does teach you the fundamentals and principles required to answer the questions. I found this book a great help, especially in Chemical and Ionic Equilibria and the other chapters are just as well done.
After explaining the necessary terminology and definitions , he goes on to give detailed examples and solutions to a variety of questions.
IF there is one thing that struck me about this book is that the end of chapter questions have solutions!.Not only does he give you the answer, but the working! This is often absent in many textbooks in current circulation. I have reccomended this book to many friends and I am yet to find a better book that deals in calculations in this way.

The Only Reason I'm Passing Chemistry.........2007-10-08

This books picks up where my poorly written/edited text leaves off. In clear, concise language this book explains concepts that I always assumed were over my head. It's really easy to find any concept you need help with too. Because of this book, I can actually accomplish a feat I've attempted many times over the years -- pass Chemistry in order to start nursing school. Believe it or not, I am getting an A so far.

This book is tremendous and I've recommended it to so many people in my Chem class. You will not regret this purchase.

Excellent and easier to follow than most chemistry books.......2006-09-15

I really LOVE this book for introductory/first-year chemistry. It really explains things well and gives you a good mix of reading and exercises. (The exercises and reading are spaced closer together, not big blocks of reading followed by big blocks of exercises that you see too commonly in other study guides.) This makes it so much easier to reinforce your learning, as well as the writing style which is very clear. There are plenty of exercises to apply what you learn, and there is just enough reinforcement in concepts as you progress through the book without being repetitive.

Chemistry is not an easy subject to learn, and there is no "magic" book out there that will "download" its information directly to your brain--you will always have to apply yourself. But this book makes it SO much less frustrating. It is a good supplement to your school textbook, but you could learn a good deal without other sources (but I don't recommend this if you are taking a class-buy this as well as the required textbook, and go the the lectures.)

Never received the book. Thanks Katrina!.......2005-09-26

I'm sure this book would rate at least 4 stars based on the other CliffsStudySolver books I own. The order was "undeliverable" and was returned to Amazon because my area was one that got hit hard by hurricane Katrina . Much to my surprise not only did Amazon refund the price of the book, but they also refunded all shipping costs including handling fees without me sending any emails or making any phone calls or having to argue with stupid sales reps in other parts of the country who refuse to have a clue as to what people in this area have been through. Talk about service! Thanks very much to Amazon for being so understanding about our situation here in south eastern Louisiana. Amazon has been more understanding than a lot of large local business entities in my area. I will always continue to do business with Amazon.com without hesitation whatsoever.
