His financial future was assured- all of his books remained in print through his lifetime, and some of them went through dozens of hardcover and softcover reprintings- but his reputation was permanently tarnished. Whenever establishment figures wished to make a statement about pseudoscience or the occult, or later to castigate the Scientific Creationists, they usually deemed it necessary to include Velikovsky in their denunciations- even though Velikovsky shared their abhorrence for religious ...
