... occasionally misinterpreted or misrepresented his sources, neglected to properly acknowledge his predecessors . . . ; failed to adequately respond to criticism or admit his errors . . . ." (4 ) Robert Jastrow, director of NASA's Institute for Space Studies, calls Bauer's book: "A very valuable contribution to the literature on a major controversy of great psychological and sociological importance." (5 ) Marcello Truzzi, sociologist from Eastern Michigan University also suggests: "Bauer's remarkable book will be viewed, even by Velikovskians, as a great improvement over previous critical studies [of Velikovsky's theories]." (6 ) Michael W. Friedlander, a professor of physics at Washington University in St ...
612. El-Arish Revisited [Journals] [Kronos]
... scholarly apparatus to see in a common-sense way that something is fundamentally wrong with Velikovsky's treatment of the text. In this case the resistance and the irrational denials came from the Velikovskian camp. What are the truths that they were unable to face? In Mankind in Amnesia, Velikovsky also gave us a very concise definition of a condition called "psychological scotoma": It "is an inability to observe certain phenomena or to recognize certain situations though they are obvious to other persons. A man may not see an evident fact or not recognize an obvious situation, though his intelligence and rationality should produce an immediate realization and proper reaction."(42) This puts me very much ...
613. Scientific Censorship and Thought Control [Journals] [Catastrophist Geology]
... and what are worthy enough for ME to read about. If I should be in a position to tell HIM what HE should publish I'm sure that I'd be hauled into the Federal courts by next week. All this may well provide the material for a dozen future Ph.D . theses on the History of Science, 1975 or the Psychology of Rationalization in Scientific Censorship. Such sheer egotism! Such sheer disregard for the freedoms on which this nation was founded. Such sheer disregard for the very essence of all we were taught so many years ago as the SCIENTIFIC METHOD. Such desire for unbridled power to control the thoughts, actions and destinies of other human beings. HEIL ...

... ), Peoples of the Sea (1977) and Ramses II and His Time (1978) - he left numerous manuscripts. These are now being readied for publication by a team of scholars and by the literary executors, Elisheva Velikovsky and Professor Lynn E. Rose. A partial list follows: Mankind in Amnesia, a work on collective psychology, is now with the publisher, Doubleday, and is scheduled to appear later this year or early in 1982. The Test of Time: Velikovsky examines how his work stands in the light of new discoveries in astronomy and geology. The Dark Age of Greece: he probes the historicity of the dark centuries that supposedly interrupted the Greek ...
616. A Personal Report on, and Irreverent Look at, the World Conference 'Planetary Violence in Human History' Portland, Oregon, January 3-5, 1997 [Journals] [SIS Review]
... event. Victor Clube said he was very impressed with the interpretation of the pictographs; people in the past saw something cometary. What were the Saturnians running away from? Richard Heinberg: Environmental Catastrophes and the Changing Attitudes Towards Women, Children, Animals, and Nature' Heinberg said he had no theory to present but had studied social and psychological effects of catastrophes on survivors. He had found evidence of post-traumatic stress disorder, a denial of the events. Our ancestors felt they were being punished, felt guilty, thought punishment or self-punishment would placate the gods - leading to the rise of sacrifice and cannibalism. Humans became what they are in response to a changing and traumatised environment ...
617. IN THE BEGINNING [Books]
... form while verse xix. also makes our quotation, it tells that the debris of the dying satellite's glaciosphere appearing in the terrestrial atmosphere caused dense flooding, redactor has redrawn the picture and makes out that the people could not see because they had been smitten with blindness'. An individual may become suddenly ' blind', for physiological or psychological reasons, but the plural used here needs our interpretation. The Myth of Abraham refers to a peculiar composite therioulorphic figure (Genesis xv,:9 ) in which we recognize the satellite pictorialized in the style of Ezekiel and Daniel This composite figure was divided in the midst, whereupon a flock of ' fowls came down' which was ...
618. Venus Hothouse - The Other Theory [Journals] [SIS Review]
... to explore the atmosphere of Venus quantitatively and determine the precise extent of influence which a greenhouse effect would have. This will be an investigation of the polyenergetic distribution of radiation throughout the Planckian spectrum, layer by layer on down to the surface of the planet, basing their model on the findings of Pioneer Venus. Some two decades ago the psychologist CARL G. JUNG wrote: "Nothing is more vulnerable than scientific theory, which is an ephemeral attempt to explain facts and not an everlasting truth in itself." And so, following the release of information by NASA on the Venus orbiter and multiprobes, as well as the data from the Soviet Venera probes, it was stated ...
619. The Burning of Troy [Books] [de Grazia books]
... III culture was closely related [34]. This is remarkable because the calcinated debris of Troy IIg was never dug out and was probably unknown, yet the debris of the old city was strong enough to become the foundation of the new city walls.) In his command of the natural sciences involved and their interweaving with ancient sources and psychology, Velikovsky has excelled all writers on questions of catastrophe. Working independently, he published in 1950 his account of universal destruction of the second half of the second millennium. He asserted that heavy seismic disturbances and devastating flames consumed the same ancient civilizations. But, with the aid of ancient legends and documents, he insisted upon the role ...
620. Nine Spheres of Venusian Effects [Books] [de Grazia books]
... has long been in the business of producing catastrophes in order to recapture the madness of ancient disasters. Wars, aggression, suppression, compulsive and punitive behavior are connected with the primordial past. It is as if we are congenitally convinced that good comes only from greater evil- to roast a pig we must burn down our house. The psychological de-programming of the catastrophized mind is still a little-understood process. Both the morale, and the rational invention of means, for moving directly to good without the intercession of great evils are very weak currents or motifs in contemporary civilization. But, to an existentialist and pragmatic mind, there can be no alternative to trying. We must keep ...
