202. Comments on Electric Stars [Journals] [SIS Internet Digest]
... solar model has nothing but adhocery to offer by way of explanation for the complex phenomena observed on and above the photosphere. So despite the clever mathematical virtuosity displayed, I suggest the standard model simply doesn't apply to our sun or any other star. The field is wide open for new ideas! What I tried to emphasize is that the Einstein model of gravity is wrong. In its place I favor a neo-classical physics approach which relates inertial and gravitational mass to nuclear electrostatic dipoles and the transmission of the electrostatic force at near infinite speed. In this model, the Newtonian gravitational constant, G, is neither constant nor universal. It depends to a great extent on the electric ...
203. Velikovsky: Bonds of the Past [Journals] [SIS Internet Digest]
... , the film includes interviews with Eric Larrabee, who authored the reviews of Worlds in Collision in Harpers; Lloyd Motz, William Mullen, C. J. Ransom, David Carlyle, William Birenbaum, and others.

204. Focus [Journals] [SIS Review]
... Jewish Times carried an article by assistant editor DAVID SILVERBERG, "Cosmic Controversy: The Universe According to Immanuel Velikovsky" [3 ]. Based on an October interview with Dr Velikovsky, it is organised around the published volumes and manuscripts in progress. Silverberg touchingly observes that Velikovsky "is the last survivor of an educational system that produced an EINSTEIN and a FREUD" [4 ]. Two recent issues of Fate contain GEORGE W. EARLEY'S latest writing on Velikovsky. The first part of his article [5 ] summarises the major event in the "Velikovsky Affair" up to and including the organisation of the 1974 AAAS Symposium. The second part [6 ] describes the Symposium ...
205. 1895 And 1950: The Time Was Ripe For A Heresy. Ch.17 Supplement (Earth In Upheaval) [Velikovsky] [Velikovsky Earth in Upheaval]
... . Thus in a few years, in a spectacular series of discoveries, the entire world-matter and energy and living species and the human soul--opened new horizons and everything appeared to be in incessant vibration, collisions, and transformation: the macrocosm, the microcosm, and even the subtle world of the mind, all alike. And in 1905 Albert Einstein, then twenty-six years old, offered his understanding of the physical world, an understanding that required a new mental approach, as a testimonial that the age of basic discoveries had not ended with the victory of Darwin over the Book of Genesis. Since then another fifty years have passed. Once more, as before the end of the ...

... would not investigate were confirmed by independent research. Of people who were prominent in their fields and who, since the beginning of my work and through the years showed me more than casual interest and sympathy, I name Robert Pfeiffer, orientalist and biblical scholar; Horace Kallen, philosopher and educator; Walter S. Adams, astronomer; Albert Einstein; and Harry Hess. They were few, but each of them was great as a human being. (1 ) The list is reproduced in "H . H. Hess and My Memoranda," Pensée, vol. II (Fall 1972); reprinted in Velikovsky Reconsidered. (2 ) The following is taken from Velikovsky's ...

... C. E. R. Bruce, D. Ager, H. Urey, J. Lamar Worzel., or C. Emiliani, who use catastrophe to explain important episodes of natural history. It may be of interest to place C. Lyell, C. Darwin, S. Freud, A. Wegener, and A. Einstein in the chart: all would vote "No" on all questions. Yet interesting passages and events in the lives of all of them have to do with catastrophic episodes and anomalies. Actually, when pressed on the matter today, a uniformitarian will say that he is pursuing a method, not assuming an absolute reality [5 ] ...
208. Velikovsky -- what has survived? [Journals] [SIS Internet Digest]
... . His books will probably stay in print in various forms and provoke wonder and controversy for a long time to come. So, in short, he is more likely to be something of a cult figure, like Donnelly, Bruno, and Mesmer, than a central canonical figure in intellectual history such as Galileo, Copernicus, Newton, Einstein, Freud, Jung, Darwin etc- even though these folks may also lose their credentials of validity and their ideas become superceded, they themselves are likely to remain cultural icons as long as our particular civilization lasts. ...

... 1997 which accused scientists of being biassed. A 1976 issue of Physics Journal actually included two letters criticizing Special Relativity, but no articles; indeed the letters editor had a drawer of 50 articles that he would not publish. The online newspaper www.salon.com features an article on scientific dissent on 6 July 2000; See "Did Einstein Cheat?" by John Farrell.

... content to confirm Ramesses II and III in the 7th and 4th centuries, and Thutmose III as Shishak. The experiment might inspire in those undertaking it a healthy respect for the pioneer who, if he was rejected by a few lesser lights in Academe, discussed his projects with some of the brightest minds of his day. Among them Albert Einstein, who, when he died, left Worlds in Collision open on his table and the renowned French archaeologist, Claude Schaeffer, with whom Velikovsky coincided over the catastrophes that marked the great ages of antiquity - as he had coincided with the ur-catastrophist Plato who, in Timaeus, attributed periodic world destructions to a deviation in the bodies that ...
