... ancient philosophy, Dr. Rose's baccalaureate major was in ancient history and classical languages. George Robert Talbott (D .Sc., Indiana Northern Grad. School); Dr. Talbott is both an interdisciplinary scientist and author whose experiential background is about evenly divided between research and engineering applications. His scope and competence in mathematical physics and physical chemistry are evident from his two-volume Philosophy and Unified Science, published in 1977 by the international firm of Ganesh and Co. in Madras. Dr. David Lee Hilliker's introduction to this work lists some additional publications of Dr. Talbott, including a book in thermodynamics (Electronic Thermodynamics). Dr. Talbott also holds a basic patent, with ...

... the mention of a paper by E. Guerrier concerning Lake Bosumtwi in Ghana. The lake is thought to have been formed as the result of impact of an extraterrestrial body, its age from glass samples taken from the rim radiometrically dating it from 1.3 to 1.6 million years. Its diameter is some five miles and on chemical and geochronological grounds it has been correlated with the Ivory Coast Tektite field. What is most remarkable is that various West African peoples preserve ancient traditions attributing the lake to the fall of a fiery metallic mass. These peoples include the Dogon, the Bambaras and the Mandingoes. On the rating I give this issue all who subscribe will want ...

... the sulfurous atmosphere a volcanic effect, a mammoth extension of the fumes around Earth's Halemaumau? (4 ) If a long probe is inserted into Venus' soil, and in enough places to yield a fair sample, does the temperature increase or decrease with depth? Scattered reports keep coming to us of volcanoes, giant electrical storms, and chemical fires, among other things - all of which is suggestive of phenomena at contradiction with science's earlier concepts of planet formation in general and Venus in particular. . . . to be continued.

... as more data are collected, Velikovsky's pronouncements seem less and less fantastic. Following are some of his ideas about the moon: [There follows a listing of Velikovsky's advance claims concerning the moon, and references for their confirmation. These items were all included in the May issue of Pensée.) "Research Reporter - Velikovsky Controversy," Chemistry (October, 1971), 17-18. MARS Meandering "river" on Martian surface Only a few months ago the world's astronomers were convinced that Mars, like the moon, was a geologically dead planet. The astronomers were sure that its surface- just as that of the moon- was pitted by craters undoubtedly gouged out by meteorites that rained ...

... that had remained were forced up and formed the craterlets' which we see strung along the rilles, or pitting the oceans'. Such, in a rough description, was the genesis of the Moon's surface features, according to the deductions of Hoerbiger's Cosmological Theory. The lunar ice, being almost absolutely cold, cannot show any physical or chemical reaction. Since there is no atmosphere on the Moon, the Sun's light is not transformed into heat. The light energy radiated on to the Moon does indeed raise the temperature of the lunar ice, but, ice being a good conductor of heat, this energy is swallowed and led into the interior. It radiates out again even ...
437. The McMaster University Symposium - June 1974 [Journals] [SIS Review]
... of radiation physics at the University of Illinois, reviewed the possibility that the decay rates are not constant. Some of the physicists present refused to accept this possibility but, if it were true, the occurrence of cataclysms on a global scale could clearly have great significance for such dating methods. G. W. van Oosterhout, of the Chemistry Department of Delft University, outlined the problem that arises from the several large and sharp kinks' in the graph correlating the tree-ring ages of wood samples with the radiocarbon ages of the same samples. He concluded that, in the present state of knowledge, a catastrophic cause for such phenomena cannot be ruled out. One problem crucial to ...

... orbital periods of revolution of that magnitude. This moment in time also delineates the onset of the Pleistocene, or glacial, epoch in Earth's history, including the advent of mankind himself, which gives one speculative pause. Why this event occurred and what the mechanism was behind the planetary explosion is not fully addressed. Recent estimates have shown that chemical or thermonuclear reactions are many orders of magnitude too low to disrupt a small body, much less a major planet of the Saturn-class. There are current conjectures that Jupiter is currently undergoing some low-level thermonuclear reactions in its core, exhibited by the excess planetary thermal radiation over that of solar heating, but still insufficient for it to achieve star ...

... experimental materials (but left the fact unpublished, assuming it to have been due to experimental error!). And he takes seriously the heretical experiments of physician Wilhelm Reich, who reported the spontaneous generation of biotic vesicles from inorganic fluids in a bio-energetic field. On the other hand, the author also considers the "panspermia" hypothesis of chemist Svante Arrhenius, in accordance with which life may have originated outside the Earth. And he gives favorable consideration to the views of astronomer Fred Hoyle, who believes that micro-organisms are continually filtering into our atmosphere from outer space. Even orthodox scientists now admit the possibility, he notes, that meteorites carry spores, some of which may have ...
