... of Worlds in Collision because a colleague of mine told me about it. Since that time I have personally been involved in working on the theories of Dr Velikovsky. It ultimately led to the establishment of Catastrophism and Ancient History. I guess that unfortunately Velikovsky, although accorded some honours before death, will only achieve a status like that of Einstein and Freud after his death. His theories will become founding stones for many fields of study. For me, his historical revision has helped in understanding the many problems of archaeology of the Holy Land. Jericho with all its wonderful remains gave fits to every establishment archaeologist because there was no stratum for Joshua's destruction. However, Velikovsky's historical ...

323. The Electro-gravitic Theory Of Celestial Motion [Journals] [Velikovskian]
... the center of clusters of galaxies."25 THE PERIHELION ADVANCE OF MERCURY Mercury, as it orbits the Sun like all the planets, has its closest point perihelion constantly rotating to a new advanced position. However, Mercury's "perihelion advance" moves it a larger distance for each orbit than can be accounted for by gravitational equations. Albert Einstein presented his theory of General Relativity and explained this disparity of Mercury's orbit claiming that space around the Sun was curved. Hence, Mercury would orbit the Sun in curved space and also in time and appear at a farther perihelion point. This conclusion, I suggest, is incorrect. Since Mercury is a small mass with a magnetic field ...
324. Karl Popper and Evolutionary Theory (Vox Populi) [Journals] [Kronos]
... in previous reviews Davis concentrated an average of 84% of his review on the book or subject directly touched on by the book. But in the case of Mankind in Amnesia he only put in 28%. Further, Davis failed to mention that many "respectables" in Egyptology admire Velikovsky's contribution and that Velikovsky succeeded in predicting magnetospheres where Einstein failed, which was no small feat especially for a neophyte. A published response by the people at DISCOVER over the furor created by Davis's review has not been forthcoming. It is worth noting, though, that since a review by Davis first appeared in the second issue of DISCOVER, no two issues have gone by without one of ...
325. Freud and Velikovsky Part II [Journals] [Catastrophism & Ancient History]
... haunted Stephen Dedalus, the would-be bard and conscience of his country, Ireland.) Young Velikovsky shared with his father the hope of inspiring, with the "Scripta," a comradeship of Jewish scholars in all countries which would lead to the establishment of a tower of Hebrew lore in the Holy Land. Their labors, in which Albert Einstein cordially joined, helped to make another dream come true- the Hebrew University in Jerusalem. Immanuel proudly tells us his father "was first to redeem the land in Negeb [the South of Israel], the home of the patriarchs" of the Jews. Simon organized a cooperative settlement in the wilderness he named Ruhama (reasonably translated ...
326. The Inconstant Heavens [Books] [de Grazia books]
... of those who proclaimed that they had peremptory arguments galore, but did not submit a single one. Only a few scientists of note showed a spirit of scholarly cooperation by providing friendly criticism and additional information. Among them were W. S. Adams, G. Atwater, V. A. Bailey, V. Bargmann, A. Einstein, A. Goldsmith, H. H. Hess, H. S. Jones, J. S. Miller, P. L. Mercanton, C. W. van der Merwe, L. Motz, and S. K. Vsekhsviatsky. In contrast with the rational attitude of these men, several other great names affixed ...
327. Ice Fields of the Earth [Books] [de Grazia books]
... great ice cap collapse and crustal shifts of Lunaria and the new ice caps of Jovea that remain today. That would be during the "Golden Age" of Saturn. The Piri Reis map is the subject of a book by Charles Hapgood, who also provided a singular theory of ice cap avalanche with a mechanism different than Cook's. (Einstein thought Hapgood's idea that the ice cap would have shoved the continental crust on a wedge principle to be mechanically acceptable [13].) I incline to the view that the map, which was drawn up from various old sources a few years after Columbus anchored off Santo Domingo, plots the shores of Antarctica well because, during the ...
328. Precursors of Quantavolution [Books] [de Grazia books]
... the population does rank professors in the highest echelons of respect.) As for the time Deg had given over to the movement, it was little as you can see, no more than, say, a chairman of the board of a closely-held company would spend on its affairs, much more than, say, V. spent with Einstein, which V. turned into a book (yet unpublished), infinitely more than a day in the life of Leopold Bloom, according to James Joyce, which contained all of the wandering years of Ulysses, ten years in coming home from the Trojan Wars. Then he said something worth repeating, that the time he spent with ...
329. Introducing Anomalistics: A New Field of Interdisciplinary Study [Journals] [Kronos]
... to catastrophic evolution as "punctuational change".(14) The ostracism of Velikovsky, like that of his anomalistically oriented psychoanalytic precursor Wilhelm Reich,(15) 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 ...

... required readings would amount to 1200 pages and graduate students would prepare a research paper. It is expected that from 80 to 200 students can register for the Institute. Personnel for the course would include: 1. Prof. Alfred de Grazia, Supervising Professor, Full-time; 2. Adjunct Prof. Annette Tobia, Ph.D ., Einstein University in microbiology and presently lecturer at NYU, full-time. 3. Prof. William Mullen, Ph.
