... the past iconoclastic views presented in unorthodox ways have at times later turned out to be correct. Further, if Velikovsky were quite wrong, that would seem to put him clearly in the ranks of the cranks and pseudo-scientists, and he seemed too erudite for that. He had intellectual associations of long standing with such respected scientists as Hess and Einstein, and he was taken seriously by a number of respected humanists and social scientists. Consequently, I had to search for other ways to reach a judgment. In particular, how sound is his competence in the fields that enter into his discussions- in plain language, does he know what he is talking about? In Cosmos without ...
... [292]; it was published posthumously ten ~ 'ears later. Already in 1968 [233] he was "well along in a book called Ten Trials, which would set forth tests of his theories to be done by scientists to either prove or refute them." He "would also like to publish his correspondence with Albert Einstein," and "a book called Ash, a record of his 76 Beyond Velikovsky struggle with the Scientific Establishment to have Egyptian material dated at radiocarbon laboratories. And then he has the idea that it might be worthwhile to publish some of the letters he has received from people around the world- say ten letters for each of the ...
... . It can be seen here that problems in one area carry over into other scientific areas, thought to have no contact with each other" [408:387- 89]. Reviews Worlds in Collision was reviewed in innumerable newspapers and magazines. Favorable reviews echoed the tone of the magazine articles mentioned earlier. Velikovsky was compared with Darwin, Einstein, Galileo, Kepler, Newton, Planck; his competence over the whole field of learning was stressed. His ideas were said to challenge or upset prevailing theories in many disciplines, and to be remarkable, absolutely original and convincing, revolutionary, stupendous in implication. This "most sensational book of the 20th century," "one ...
305. Merlin and the Round Temple [Journals] [SIS Review]
... application hardly inferior, if at all, to that of Egypt at about the same date [i .e . c.2500BC], or that of Mesopotamia considerably later'. Yet Thom was right, and his great achievement in decoding' the megaliths is now justly recognised. Sir Fred Hoyle has noted that a veritable Newton or Einstein must have been at work' in the construction of the megaliths. In Thom's epoch-making work he referred to results from 600 sites throughout Britain, all of which were found to be aligned astronomically with great precision. Every megalith was aligned with reference to the points of the compass and the movements of the planets. It has even been ...

... his tracks by referring to catastrophic evolution as "punctuational change." 14 The ostracism of Velikovsky, like that of his anomalistically oriented psychoanalytic precursor Wilhelm Reich, l5 inevitably raises the question of the nature of science. Is it primarily empirical, as it seemed to be with Thomas Edison, or theoretical, as it clearly was with Albert Einstein? Is it basically "common sense," as Bertrand Russell once maintained, or "uncommon sense," as I myself have characterized it? 16 Is it invariably sober and austere, as the images both of "the ivory tower" and "men in white" suggest, or is it capable of accommodating what is often ...
308. The Saturn Theory [Journals] [SIS Review]
... it is the most ill-determined of the physical constants. To say we can measure the density of the giant outer planets Jupiter and Saturn is mistaken. All we are doing is measuring something about their electrical state. We can't say anything definite about their composition based on apparent density, because mass is dependent upon the charge on those bodies. Einstein, when he scribbled up on the blackboard E = mc2, made an assumption that is unwarranted, that energy and matter are interchangeable. Wal would say that the electrostatic rearrangement of sub-atomic particle resonances produces an apparent change in mass but it does not destroy or create matter. ...

... a set of quarks and hadrons. Once this misunderstanding is cleared up, then you can see that I also would not say that the universe is timeless and spaceless. It is only that one order which describes that universe has holographic-like properties. It is represented by the implicate order of David Bohm and the "E " side of the Einstein equation E = mc2. I hope this clears things up. Karl H. Pribram Neuropsychology Laboratories Stanford University Stanford, California C. Leroy Ellenberger Comments: Marilyn Ferguson replied to questions similar to Mr. Mongold's in the August 1978 Human Behavior. One of her points was that "time and space are seen as relevant on a secondary ...

... ," Journal of Geophysical Research 76 (34), 8401-8408 (1971, December 1). 45. Bailey, Michelson, and others have discussed this charge in terms of matter content, ie: coulomb per kilogram. It is also possible to model the system as charge per cubic meter, using a stress of space model as Einstein did in the General Theory of Relativity. 46. Juergens (1979), op. cit., p.41. 47.
