Reveals the cutting edge of New Science and shows how established science disallows inquiry that challenges the status quo--even when it produces verifiable results • Contains 43 essays by 19 researchers denoting cutting-edge, heretical, or suppressed scientific research, including Immanuel Velikovsky, Nikola Tesla, Rupert Sheldrake, and Masaru Emoto • Edited by Atlantis Rising publisher, J. Douglas Kenyon Following the model of his bestselling Forbidden History and Forbidden Religion, J. Douglas Kenyon has assembled from his bimonthly journal, Atlantis Rising, material that explores science and technology that has been suppressed by the orthodox scientific community--from the true function of the Great Pyramid and the megaliths at Nabta Playa to Immanuel Velikovsky’s astronomical insights, free energy from space, cold fusion, and Rupert Sheldrake’s research into telepathy and ESP. There is an organized war going on in science between materialistic theory and anything that could be termed spiritual or metaphysical. For example, Masaru Emoto’s research into the energetics of water, although supported by photographic evidence, has been scoffed at by mainstream science because he has asserted that humans affect their surroundings with their thoughts. The materialism or absolute skepticism of the scientific establishment is detrimental to any scientific inquiry that thinks outside the box. This mentality is interested in preserving funding for its own projects, those that will not rock the establishment. From Tesla’s discovery of alternating current to Robert Schoch’s re-dating of the Sphinx, this book serves as a compelling introduction to the true history of alternative and New Science research. -------------- Following the model of his bestselling Forbidden History and Forbidden Religion, J. Douglas Kenyon has assembled forty-two essays by nineteen researchers from his bimonthly journal, Atlantis Rising, material that explores science and technology that has been suppressed by the orthodox scientific community--from the true function of the Great Pyramid and the megaliths at Nabta Playa to Immanuel Velikovsky’s astronomical insights, free energy from space, cold fusion, and Rupert Sheldrake’s research into telepathy and ESP.

This mentality is interested in preserving funding for its own projects, those that will not rock the establishment. From Tesla’s discovery of alternating current to Robert Schoch’s re-dating of the Sphinx, this book serves as a compelling introduction to the true history of alternative and New Science research. J. Douglas Kenyon is the editor and publisher of Atlantis Rising and the editor of the bestselling Forbidden History and Forbidden Religion. He lives in Montana. -------------- This is the third "Forbidden" book I have reviewed (History" and "Religion" being the other two). Each of them has presented an alternate view of traditional interpretations of history. Mr. Kenyon is the editor and publisher of "Atlantis Rising" and, as such, may be expected to accept such alternative views unreservedly. And if this book ware only his work that is what I would expect. This book, like the others, however, contains the writings of over a dozen authors, many of whom put forth conflicting ideas and some of whom are truly skeptical. I use the word "skeptical" purposely. They are not debunkers. They don't say "Only this is true. Everything else is nonsense." They say "If this is true, let's try to find the proof for it." The primary theme of these essays does contain a certain amount of what many people would call paranoia - suppression by the establishment (government, academia, etc.), but given the prevalent attitudes it may be justified. And, besides, just because someone is paranoid doesn't mean nobody is out to get them. Does that paranoia invalidate the conclusions drawn by these researchers? I don't think so. It may affect their perceptions regarding why their work is rejected without affecting the research itself. If "fringe science" or "voodoo science" (to use a couple of establishment buzzwords) interests you; if you are open to non-traditional views of the universe (potential anti-gravity, archeo-astronomy, alien life forms, and ESP among others); if you simply want to see the "other side" of the arguments; this book should be an interesting read for you. Even the authors of various articles admit that proving some of the assertions is, at this time, impossible. They propose that these ideas be accepted as working hypotheses, and that experiments be undertaken, and fairly evaluated, to determine which lines of study should be pursued. The emphasis here is on the words "fairly evaluated," since all too frequently results which fly in the face of accepted theories are dismissed out of hand (think Galileo, Copernicus, etc.). Just because the results aren't what was expected doesn't necessarily make them wrong, it merely kames them unexpected. |
