482. Uniformitarian Or Catastrophist? Ice Age Theory [Journals] [Velikovskian]
... forced to employ to explain the onset of an Ice Age. But all that has been presented thus far are concepts unsupported by physical evidence to uphold these Ice Age suppositions. If, on the other hand, Velikovsky's catastrophic concept of a recent Ice Age is correct, then there should exist unambiguous, observed evidence to buttress his case. Velikovsky claimed that the Ice Age ended catastrophically about 8,500 years ago by a poleshift and probably a sudden plate tectonic movement. Modern science presents the view that the end of the Ice Age was controlled by gradual processes which took thousands of years to complete. Nevertheless, Pielou admits that change from the Ice Age climate to that of ...
483. Asimov In Confusion [Journals] [Kronos]
... From: Kronos Vol. III No. 2 (Winter 1977) "Velikovsky and Establishment Science" Home | Issue Contents Asimov In Confusion L. M. Greenberg In October 1969, Isaac Asimov published a brief essay titled "Worlds in Confusion". It appeared in Fantasy and Science Fiction and was reprinted in The Stars in their Courses (1972). "Worlds in Confusion" was Asimov's belated contribution to the "critical" literature on Worlds in Collision. A sampling from "Worlds in Confusion" should suffice to show the reader the true merit of Asimov's criticism. ASIMOV. - "Let's not think of . . . gigantic catastrophes. Let's not think of ...
484. Quartered At Yale [Journals] [Kronos]
... From: Kronos Vol. II No. 3 (Feb 1977) Home | Issue Contents Quartered At Yale Immanuel Velikovsky Copyright © 1977 by Immanuel Velikovsky "Quartered at Yale" is a section from the Memoirs to Worlds in Collision. The Memoirs, a documented history of the origin of Worlds in Collision and its reception from 1946 to 1953, was put together by Velikovsky in the fall of 1954, and is not published. * * * Four Yale professors united their forces to disprove Worlds in Collision. Together they prepared an article for the American Journal of Science published at Yale. The editor, Professor Chester R. Longwell, himself a geologist and one of the ...
485. Reviews [Journals] [SIS Workshop]
... From: SIS Workshop Vol 4 No 4 (Mar 1982) Home | Issue Contents Reviews Terrors Repressed MANKIND IN AMNESIA by Immanuel Velikovsky (Doubleday: New York, 208 pp., $14.95; Sidgwick & Jackson: London 1982, £7 .95) The dust has yet to settle on the controversy aroused by Velikovsky's works. Establishment science reacted with incredulity and venom to his closely argued thesis that, in historical times the Earth had come into calamitously close contact with Venus, a relatively recent newcomer to the solar system. It had later suffered, he argued, from another near collision between Venus and Mars before the equilibrium we know today was established ...
486. A POINT OF VIEW [Journals] [SIS Workshop]
... From: SIS Workshop No. 5 (Apr 1979) Home | Issue Contents A Point Of View By Leroy Ellenberger (C ) 1979 The Cold War, McCarthy and Velikovsky Many recent followers of the "Velikovsky Affair" like myself may be somewhat mystified by the juxtaposition of McCarthy and Velikovsky. Commentators setting the background for the reception of Worlds in Collision in 1950 often describe the political milieu mentioning such items as McCarthyism and anti-intellectualism. For example, Storer offers: ". .. science and indeed all intellectual enterprise seemed to be under attack by right-wing forces in American society. The Cold War was at its chilliest... and Senator Joseph McCarthy was waiting in ...

Following Immanuel Velikovsky's Reconstruction of Ancient History"Click to view original chart In setting out to construct a graphic chart of Immanuel Velikovsky's reconstruction of ancient history, I was fortunate in having read not only most of Velikovsky's published work: "Theses for the Reconstruction of Ancient History" (1945), Worlds in Collision (1950), Ages in Chaos, Volume 1 (1952), Earth in Upheaval (1955), and Oedipus and Akhnaton (1960), all of which ...

489. The Prodigal Archive [Books] [de Grazia books]
... From: Cosmic Heretics, by Alfred De Grazia Home | Issue Contents CHAPTER TWO The Prodigal Archive The other book, that which won Velikovsky fame, income, and scientific disgrace, was a happy accident of publishing. It could hardly have become a best-seller on its merits; very few books do, and this one was not easy to read or flamboyant. Worlds in Collision was reluctantly published, deceptively publicized, and foolishly attacked. It was written in the 1940's, after Ages in Chaos had been completed and had been circulating among publishers and collecting one rejection after another. Evidently the later work had the better chance, because of its larger, more explosive message. ...
490. Letters [Journals] [SIS Review]
... From: SIS Review Vol VI No 4 (1984) Home | Issue Contents Letters Come Again?In his "What's in a Name? - Venus The Newcomer'", Malcolm Lowery writes that "Dr Velikovsky frequently asserted (see for example his Retrospect' in SISR III:2 ) that the name of the planet [Venus] means newcomer' in Latin" (SISR V:2 , p. 46). I shall be most grateful to Mr Lowery for citing a few specific references in support of his claim that Dr Velikovsky frequently asserted any such thing. I looked in vain through "Retrospect" in SISR III:2 , as well as ...
