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 Idea Partially Executed.......2007-08-12

The book, an edited work, seeks to address a gap in scholarship, to wit, where others have covered why and how complex societies have collapsed, there is vitually nothing on how some, not all, regenerate. The editors do point out that most collapses are not total, and something is left (see my review of The Collapse of Complex Societies (New Studies in Archaeology) for a more nuanced review of this matter). It fails to go the full distance possible.

The combined authors posit a cycle of growth, collapse, and regeneration between ruralism and local autonomy, and urbanization with centralization of control.

In an excellent but not quite complete summary of the causes of collapse, the editors outline the following:

1. Fragmentation into smaller political entities
2. Partial or complete desertion of urban centers
3. Loss or depletion of centalizing functions
4. Breakdown of regional economic systems
5. Failure of civilization's ideology

They do not mention the latest and best explanation, that the more complex a society becomes, the more expensive it is to make incremental improvements in management, and the unaffordability of the always increasing cost for each always decreasingly effective improvement ultimately leads to implosion (see Collapse as linked above).

They do however mention in passing that large-scale inegalitarian systems tend to collapse over time--they are unsustainable. This tallies nicely with Jonathan Schell's The Unconquerable World: Power, Nonviolence, and the Will of the People while also contrasting with the literature on the The Wealth of Networks: How Social Production Transforms Markets and Freedom, The Wealth of Knowledge: Intellectual Capital and the Twenty-first Century Organization, and so on.

The authors are somewhat narrow in focusing on prior structures of rule, authority, and governability. One puts this book down with the impression it was a first date between a political scientist and an anthropologist, and they fell into psycho-babble as a neutral common ground. See my loaded image, with the full thesis at my web site under my photo/Early Papers.

An isolated but interesting observation on how state control of time and space (e.g. Daylight Savings Time, or in the US the more recent and most unwelcome additional hour of time change) are part of mind control, was worthy of note--just a the power of the state to define crime and insantity leaves us with a The Cheating Culture: Why More Americans Are Doing Wrong to Get Ahead, legalized corporate greed, and a mendacious Vice President who has committed 25 impeachable offenses and yet carries on with impunity (see Vice: Dick Cheney and the Hijacking of the American Presidency

The conclusion, in two parts, consists largely of psycho-babble (the first part), and a very fine second part, much more interesting for its applicability to our time, that posits that when a centralized government goes too far in overseas adventurism, this opens the way for the provinces to secede and become autonomous again. I note that we have 27 secessionist movements in the USA, and they are having their second annual meeting in October of this year. I for one feel that there is no one now running, including Ron Paul, that understands that the secessionists, not the "party base" are the ones we should be listening to, for they are the only ones that see clearly that the Republic is no more.

To save the Republic, we must destroy two things and create one thing:

1. Destroy the Democratic and Republican parties (see Running on Empty: Contemplative Spirituality for Overachievers) and
2. Destory the unbound Executive and the abdicated Congress
3. Create a transpartisan ticket that demands electoral reform prior to 2008 and provides both a Sunshine Cabinet with integrated policies announced in advance, and a sustainable balanced budget that eliminates all personal income taxes while taxing the Federal Reserve for local, state, and federal revenues.

We need to make every budget transparent, and to publish every budget in time for citizen participation in the evaluation of every trade-off. We do this, or the United States of America is destroyed, courtesy of Wall Street, the Bush Family, the Saudis, and Dick Cheney.

This is a useful book, but only an elementary start. The authors are all well-positioned to go on now to the next level. See also the various books on surviving the The Long Emergency: Surviving the End of Oil, Climate Change, and Other Converging Catastrophes of the Twenty-First Century.

After Collapse edited by Schwartz and..........2007-02-12

The title of "After Collapse" suggests a companion volume to Jared Diamonds "Collapse", a well constructed and fascinating book with both an overview and particular examples of the fatal problems of societies. Alas, After the Collapse is an edited collection of individual essays with no more construction or broad views than a collection of poster displays at a scientific meeting. A few are interesting, but I regret having bought the book.

How Societies Survive and Regenerate Complexity.......2006-11-08

After Collapse: The Regeneration of Complex Societies edited by Glenn M. Schwartz, John J. Nichols (University of Arizona Press) From the Euphrates Valley to the southern Peruvian Andes, early complex societies have risen and fallen, but in some cases they have also been reborn. Prior archaeological investigation of these societies has focused primarily on emergence and collapse. After Collapse: The Regeneration of Complex Societies is the first book-length work to examine the question of how and why early complex urban societies have reappeared after periods of decentralization and collapse.
Ranging widely across the Near East, the Aegean, East Asia, Mesoamerica, and the Andes, these cross-cultural studies expand our understanding of social evolution by examining how societies were transformed during the period of radical change now termed "collapse." They seek to discover how societal complexity reemerged, how second-generation states formed, and how these re-emergent states resembled or differed from the complex societies that preceded them.
The contributors draw on material culture as well as textual and ethnohistoric data to consider such factors as preexistent institutions, structures, and ideologies that are influential in regeneration; economic and political resilience; the role of social mobility, marginal groups, and peripheries; and ethnic change. In addition to presenting a number of theoretical viewpoints, the contributors also propose reasons why regeneration sometimes does not occur after collapse. A concluding contribution by Norman Yoffee provides a critical exegesis of "collapse" and highlights important patterns found in the case histories related to peripheral regions and secondary elites, and to the ideology of statecraft.
After Collapse blazes new research trails in both archaeology and the study of social change, demonstrating that the archaeological record often offers more clues to the "dark ages" that precede regeneration than do text-based studies. It opens up a new window on the past by shifting the focus away from the rise and fall of ancient civilizations to their often more telling fall and rise.
It's been eighteen years since the anno mirabile of 1988, when Joseph Tainter's Collapse of Complex Societies and George Cowgill's and my edited volume, The Collapse of Ancient States and Civilizations, appeared. These studies have resonated in archaeological theory, since they emphasized that social change was not simply a process of mutually supportive interactions that produced an irreversible succession of levels of holistic integration. They challenged views that human social systems inherently tend to persist or expand and required that levels be broken down into social groupings of partly overlapping and partly opposing fields of action that lend the possibility of instability as well as stability to overarching social institutions. Collapse studies also call attention to what happens after collapse, since collapse seldom connotes the death of a civilization as opposed to the end of a particular form of government. The studies of"regeneration" in this volume explicitly explore issues of what happens beyond collapse.
Of course, what happens beyond collapse depends on what it was that underwent the collapsing, why collapse occurred, and what institutions were left in place after collapse. Although the term collapse usually implies a downward change from something more complex and larger to something else that is less complex and smaller, one might also consider collapse as a movement from a relatively more stable condition to one that is less stable. For example, Steven Falconer and Stephen Savage (1995) have argued that Syria/Palestine in the Middle Bronze Age was a "heartland of villages," and Lisa Cooper in this volume (chapter 2) presents the variations on this theme. Thus, if stability connotes village life, then the appearance of urban sites in the region--which were based, in part, on connections with outsiders and were unstable--could be called a collapse! Of course, such unstable urbanism itself collapsed into the village life from which it sprang. Archaeologists (and others) are not used to talking about the rise of more complexsocial systems as a collapse, and I'm not saying that they should begin to do so. I do wish to point out, however, that trends toward less-complex social organizations need not be thought of as failures of those more-complex organizations, and there is an important example of this principle in one of the chapters in this volume (by Kenny Sims). I also must note that if collapse can be multidirectional, resulting in both more- and less-complex societies, it is simply a species of social change that must be investigated in its appropriate larger temporal and spatial sequences. Logically, then, regeneration--meaning the return to a condition (albeit with significant adjustments) after a collapse--is not necessarily a new category of research or theory, but a more focused attention on a kind of social change.
Comparative studies of social phenomena need to ensure that the comparisons, especially the scale of the social units being compared, are useful. There is no point in comparing the rise, abandonment or partial abandonment, and rise again of particular sites with whole regions or states or civilizations.

Book Description

This book represents the first attempt to holistically document and analyze the causes of deadly conflict in Liberia from its founding to the present. It reconstructs and examines the root, operational, and catalytic causes of seventeen internal deadly conflicts that transpired in Liberia between 1822 and 2003, including the 1980 coup d'état against the Tolbert regime and the Liberian Civil War (1989-1997) (Great War). The book seeks to answer two primary questions: what are the historical causes of deadly conflict in Liberia, and to what extent has the evolution of settler nationalism contributed to the stimulation of conflict between settler and native Liberians?

To answer these questions, Levitt examines a continuum of circular causation among the state of affairs that led to the founding of the Liberian State, the evolution of settler authoritarianism and nationalism, and internal conflict. By analyzing these processes together, the causes of seventeen conflicts are revealed and thoroughly discussed. The book also has three major objectives: to determine the historical causes of deadly conflict in Liberia, in particular, the underlining historical phenomena responsible for birthing the Great War; to present an alternative framework to comprehend and examine the aged conflict dynamic between settler and indigenous Liberians, and within Liberian society itself; and to produce the first comprehensive study of deadly conflict in Liberia.

This book advantageously spans the fields of political science, history, international law, and peace and conflict studies; it is an excellent interdisciplinary choice.

In The Evolution of Deadly Conflict in Liberia, Professor Jeremy Levitt has produced a timely, probing, sophisticated and instructive book. By employing an interdisciplinary approach (incorporating history, political science, and peace and conflict studies), Levitt unravels and contextualizes one of the world's most complicated, nuanced and tragic histories (and contemporaries crises), with stinging precision and humanist sensitivity.

Accessible and balanced, scholars, lay readers and anyone interested in global politics, the international legacy of colonialism, international law, history, political science, the African Diaspora, and the exigencies of deadly conflict, will want to purchase this book. I highly recommend it!

Another load of tosh!.......2007-01-05

Although I have a BS and MS in mechanical engineering from conventional schools, I do not consider myself a stereotypical hard-boiled scientist. I do not immediately discount unconventional theories, I am open to spiritual ideas, and I am not an atheist. I did purchase and begin to read this book with a completely open mind; I was genuinely curious about what this "Intelligent Design" stuff was all about.

I was utterly disappointed to find that this book is a bunch of ignorant tripe, full of poorly-supported opinions argued with possibly the WORST logic skills I have been astonished to encounter.

If you are interested in how life has come into being and how it came to be the way it is today, by all means, I suggest conventional science as the first step. If you are interested in religion, philosophy, and the spiritual side of nature, I suggest conventional religion as the first step. I must conclude that "Intelligent Design" is a trashy attempt to disguise the latter as the former, which ends up being horrible at presenting either.

This is such irritating trash. I was completely incapable of finishing even the first chapter, and I am a compulsive reader who will read almost anything (like the cereal box, over and over, or even trashy supermarket tabloids when I am waiting in line!). I could not even bear to donate it to the library, as I usually do with books I've finished, because I could not bear the thought of passing it on. I had to dump it into the recycle bin.

Seven Areas Where Organic Evolution Fails .......2006-09-13

September 12, 2006 --- Scott M. Huse has written a compact (about 210 pages) book (The Collapse of Evolution) that explores these seven areas where (atheistic) organic Evolution fails when faced with facts and logic: 1. biology (DNA and biogenesis do not support Darwin's Evolution or neo-Darwinian Evolution); 2. geology (several examples of radioactive dating and problems with the Geologic Column are presented, along with other arguments); 3. astronomy (includes extremely improbable cases of life coming to earth from our solar system; 4. physics; 5. mathematics (mathematical proofs, using well-established probability theory, that demonstrate why Evolution is either extremely improbable or impossible (less than 1 chance in 10^50 (1050)); 6. archaeology; and 7. anthropology (this section includes the hyped, false "ape-man" specimens during the last several decades.)

My own background includes: B.S. in biology, minor in chemistry; MBA (business and economics); over 20 years experience in Information Technology; and a few courses in statistics. Mathematics and logic can be used to test hypotheses in science and other areas of intellectual pursuit. If a hypothesis (Evolution is a set of them, and not yet a theory) fails tests of logic and math, then it is disproved. Scott Huse's chapter 5 on mathematics gives proofs using probabilities. Unfortunately for those who love Evolution, their set of hypotheses (often called "the theory of Evolution") depends on chance (no Intelligent Design or Designer) and natural selection. Here is an example that I have constructed. If there are 100 billion (1 x 10^11) trials per second for 30 billion years (1 x 10^18 seconds), the total trials would be 1 x 10^29. If you wanted to put together a molecule of only 50 atoms and you had only 8 atoms (such as O, N, K, C, H, . . .) to select from in the substrate, then the probability that this series of atoms could be selected by chance is 1 in 8^50 (8 to the 50th power) or 1 in 1.427 x 10^45. Clearly the 10^29 trials are not enough chance selections to make the 1 in 1.427 x 10^45 (10 to the 45th power.)

This book is a readable summary of several arguments against "the theory of Evolution" with some reasonable arguments for Creationism. I gave it 5 stars for the superb scope and logical examples; would have liked to have given 4 1/2 stars because of undocumented stand on "6 literal days of creation" and related topics. (A "day" in Genesis chapter 1 could be a 24-hour day or a period of time such as an eon or era.) Even with a few shortcomings, this is a very good book that exposes "the theory of Evolution" as nothing more than a set of unproved hypotheses.

Truly, "Collapse" is appropriate........2006-08-17

Scott Huse has meticulously and piercingly researched this subject of creation science and evolution, and this book is truly a breakthrough in accessibility to the average reader and in bringing all this invaluable information to the public.
Huse calmly points out flaws, impossibilities, and contradictions in every area of origin-studies. As much as is possible, Huse tries to see both sides. Fortunately for the world, one of the sides is right about everything.
In summaries:
Chapter 1: Biology, the stunning degree of intricacy and complexity of animals present and past, and the impossibility of double-convergence in a theory of evolution without a mechanism.
Chapter 2: Geology, the assumptions made in establishing the field and geologic column/radioactive dating, old-earth and young-earth theories, Flood theory.
Chapter 3: Astronomy, uniqueness of earth, possibility of extraterrestrial life.
Chapter 4: Physics, Laws of thermodynamics.
Chapter 5: Mathematics, incredibly small chances of the smallest step towards evolution.
Chapter 6: Archaeology, Confirmations of Biblical places, events, lack of any fossil record supporting evolution.
Chapter 7: Anthropology, "Ancient men", hoaxes, and misinterpretations.
Chapter 8: Commonly Cited "Proofs" of Evolution, no viable evidence.
Chapter 9: Scientists who believe in Biblical Creationism, showing that it IS scientific and not nearly so unknown as modern educators would say it is.
Chapter 10: Biblical Considerations, comparison of the two religions
Appendices: These are helpful resources and other sources and such.
Huse's writing is convincing, and he leaves no holes in his reasoning.
This type of book is why creationists utterly destroy honest evolutionists in any serious debate about the subject.
If you're looking for a book to argue more for Christianity and less against evolution, you may want to check out "A Scientific Approach to Christianity", by Robert W. Faid. It has more convincing evidence FOR Christianity than against evolution (warning: it supports the old-earth and extended creation-week philosophy).

Man As God Created Him.......2006-08-07

This is just one of many excellent books that further the evidence of divine intervention in the creation of the universe. It will not satisfy all the critics who so badly want to disbelieve in the finer workings of a majestic hand of God, but at least it will help to disprove the notion of "time and chance".

Science, Evolutionists' Worst Enemy.......2006-02-11

Scott Huse has researched and recorded a finely written perusal questioning evolution and in support of creation.

His detailed analysis of so many aspects across the spectrum of scientific examination of the origin question is obviously infuriating to focus-challenged evolutionists.

Perhaps the most telling review is his Appendix A: Scientific Facts That Prove Evolution. The results? An empty page!

And, Mr. Huse's diligence in this work includes the flowering of eight additional appendices plus a Notes section and a Bibliography. And yes, an appendix that establishes the point that there are no facts in existance which support the theory of evolution is a supremely important and therefore qualified listing.

If evolution is true, proving Mr. Huse in error, why do proponents of Darwin get so worked up at these challenges. Surely, words will just randomly evolve themselves into a review to sparklingly refute so ordered and designed assaults.

In fact, this reviewer is dumbfounded that some monkey hasn't already defended Darwin with chance eloquence!

The Upright Ape: A New Origin of the Species

ASIN: 1599424177

Book Description

Modern biology is increasingly focused on the role of repetitive anatomical structures in the embryological construction of organisms. The discovery of the homeobox (Hox) genes by Edward Lewis in 1978 ushered in a series of stunning revelations such as the fundamental commonality of insect segments and mammalian vertebrae - a wild and ridiculed idea first proposed by Etienne Geoffroy Saint-Hilaire in 1822 that has now been proven correct. Axial Character Seriation in Mammals is an unabridged edition of the 1986 Harvard University PhD Thesis of Aaron G. Filler, MD, PhD that pioneered our modern reassessment of mammalian vertebrae in the light of the new homeotic biology. As Dr. Filler points out in fascinating detail, the leading explanations of similarity among animals before Darwin were arrayed around the vertebrae of the spine in works by Sir Richard Owen, Johann Wolfgang Goethe and Geoffroy Saint-Hilaire. This was the theoretical structure that was overturned and demolished by Darwin's ideas about similarity due to common descent. In a stunning reversal, modern homeotic genetics has shown that repeating structures are indeed critical to understanding animal similarity. This work is the first study of the modern era that views vertebrae as a key to unlocking the way in which Nature has organized repeating biological structures. For the 150 years since the Great Academy Debate of 1830 appeared to demolish Geoffroy Saint-Hilaire's ideas, vertebrae have been seen as no more than some bones in Vertebrate animals that are involved in support and locomotion. Axial Character Seriation in Mammals, however, explores the fascinating traces of how the morphogenetic genes sculpt and organize serially repeating structures, thus re-establishing the vertebrae as a legitimate and compelling subject of modern science.

Product Description

In this book Children of the Universe, scientific journalist Hoimar Von Ditfurth looks at man's place in a universe filled with unknowns. This German's enthusiasm for the cosmos was equaled only by the late Carl Sagan of the United States. Von Ditfurth has undertaken the task of teaching man how to be amazed again. He believes that Western man has been disillusioned ever since the days of Copernicus when that great astronomer revealed that the earth was not the center of the universe. But recent discoveries in astronomy, physics, biology, paleontology, and geology show that a complex web joins us with our planet,our solar system, our galaxy, and with our universe. Unlike many books that tell people there is life elsewhere just because there is or should be, this book makes its point by understating the drama, and instead, showing and describing what is out in space. The book contains an excellent section of black and white photopgrahs, showing globular clusters found in our own Milky Way galaxy, tektites from around the world, comets, sun spots, and more. Von Ditfurth describes how the Earth periodically lost its magnetic shield during violent cosmic collisions between the earth and gigantic meteors weighing hundreds of millions of tons. If this happened in the past, could it happen in the future? Are these the cataclysmic tragedies the abductees are telling us? Von Ditfurth also describes human sexuality in terms of evolution and Nature's desire to continue its species. He talks about the human internal clock and how travelers flying from the Northern Hemisphere to the Southern Hemisphere do not experience jet lag. This book was first published in the 1970s and is a classic sure to enhance any collection.

Book Description

In this provocative work, noted social and economic theorist Graeme D. Snooks exposes fatal flaws in the foundations of the Darwinian theory of evolution. Further, he develops a remarkable replacement theory of evolution. The new dynamic-strategy theory views life as a strategic pursuit (rather than a game of chance) in which organisms adopt dynamic strategies (only one of which is genetic change) to survive and prosper. This theory reveals the organism as empowered, rather than as the plaything of gods, genes, or blind chance. And it provides a powerful new basis for humanism.
