Book Description
What is the Hollow Earth? A figment of the imagination of those who cling to their beliefs about the Easter Bunny, Santa Claus and the Tooth Fairy? Or could there be some substance to the tales of yore, of the hints through ancient maps and mythology? Dan Weiss reveals the transcripts of private conversations with the shadowy head of a secretive sect devoted to some of the most fabled mysteries: the hollow earth, the Holy Grail and the Holy Lance that pierced the breast of Christ. His interviews with "Ritter Von X" make for riveting reading. Ritter Von X confirms the documented evidence that even Hitler and his henchmen were convinced that an entrance to the hollow earth existed. If the transcribed interviews were all this book contained, that would be value enough for the inquisitive reader. But Dan has also gifted us an account of his lifelong search for truth in many forms: spiritual truths, political truths and verities squelched by those in authority. His coming of age begins in Vietnam, as a naive and idealistic volunteer soldier in the nation's battle against encroaching communism. His experience sets him on a course that changes his life. Have you watched the iconic movie, "Being John Malkovitch"? Similarly, the reader of this searingly honest book inhabits the restless mind of Danny Weiss, an Explorer Extraordinaire whose passion for the purest answers to eternal questions illuminates every page. Danny takes us on a sidecar ride through his life-warts and all-to arrive at a more perfect understanding of what an uncompromising search for personal revelation looks like. In "The Hollow Earth Revisited," we discover a world few have encountered. We learn of Flugelrads and Admiral Byrd's disputed legacy and of expeditions approved by the US Congress to discover the entrance to the hollow earth. Come aboard and enjoy the ride!

Newton's Principia Revisited
Author: Michael Schmiechen

ISBN: 3837053075
Category :
Languages : en
Pages : 694
Book Description
PROBLEM. The treatise is devoted to the reconstruction of our 'instinctive beliefs' in classical mechanics and to present them 'as much isolated and as free from irrelevant additions as possible'. The same motivation has driven many authors since the publication of Newton's Principia. IMPORTANCE. Classical mechanics will remain the basic reference and tool for mechanics on terrestrial and planetary scale as well as the proto-theory of relativistic and quantum mechanics. But it can only serve its purpose if it is not considered as obsolete, but if its foundations and implications are understood and made 'absolutely' clear. METHOD. Based on the 'instinctive belief' that the foundations of classical mechanics cannot be found and reconstructed within mechanics itself but only 'outside', classical mechanics is 'understood' by embedding it into an adequate theory of knowledge and adequate proto- and meta-theories in terms of the 'language of dynamics'. Evidence is produced that available philosophical expositions are not adequate for the purpose at hand. Mechanics is treated as part of physics, not of mathematics. Not sophisticated mathematical artifacts, necessary for solving specific problems, but the intellectually satisfactory foundation of mechanics in general is subject and purpose of the exercise. The goal is reached using axiomatic systems as models. SCOPE. Following an account of the unsatisfactory state of affairs the treatise covers the epistemological foundations, abstract proto-mechanics, i. e. the theories of time and space, meta-mechanics, i. e. the theories of state space models and of quantities proper, and, as an instance of the latter, abstract elementary mechanics, the theory of translational motions of 'small' solid bodies in three-dimensional Euclidean space, including classical general relativity. Subsequently the theory of classical kinematics is developed as basis for interpreted proto-mechanics and interpreted elementary mechanics. As an amus

The Hollow Earth Chronicles
Author: Bryan Whelan
Publisher: Xlibris Corporation
ISBN: 1524517100
Category : Fiction
Languages : en
Pages : 268
Book Description
A chance discovery of a large crevasse at the North Pole in the 1800s took our intrepid explorers into another world beneath the surface of the earth. It became one of the first encounters with people living in a place now called Hollow Earth. A hundred years later, another visitor had a less than friendly encounter. The three races of Hollow Earth had lived in peace for many centuries after a great war. But their world became threatened by a series of underground nuclear explosions that came from the surface. The people on the surface were totally ignorant of their existence and continued their explosions. Despite the Hollow Earth people being very cautious about retaliation, their patience had finally run out by the 2020s. The latest visitor became a pawn in a potential war that threatened every living thing on the surface. The Hollow Earths advanced technology meant that the surface dwellers were going to be in the fight of their lives, and they had no idea why.

Weird Earth
Author: Donald R. Prothero
Publisher: Indiana University Press
ISBN: 1684351235
Category : Science
Languages : en
Pages : 313
Book Description
“A breath of intellectual fresh air . . . [an] amusing look at how to dispel endemic pseudoscience and conspiracy theories through rational thinking.” —Publishers Weekly Aliens. Ley lines. Water dowsing. Conspiracies and myths captivate imaginations and promise mystery and magic. Whether it’s arguing about the moon landing hoax or a Frisbee-like Earth drifting through space, when held up to science and critical thinking, these ideas fall flat. In Weird Earth: Debunking Strange Ideas About Our Planet, Donald R. Prothero demystifies these conspiracies and offers answers to some of humanity’s most outlandish questions. Applying his extensive scientific knowledge, Prothero corrects misinformation that con artists and quacks use to hoodwink others about geology—hollow earth, expanding earth, and bizarre earthquakes—and mystical and paranormal happenings—healing crystals, alien landings, and the gates of hell. By deconstructing wild claims such as prophesies of imminent natural disasters, Prothero provides a way for everyone to recognize dubious assertions. Prothero answers these claims with facts, offering historical and scientific context in a light-hearted manner that is accessible to everyone, no matter their background. With a careful layering of evidence in geology, archaeology, and biblical and historical records, Prothero’s Weird Earth examines each conspiracy and myth and leaves no question unanswered. Weird Earth is about the facts and the people who don’t believe them. Don Prothero describes the process of science—and the process of not accepting it. If you’re wondering if humans walked on the Moon, if you’ve wondered where the lost City of Atlantis went, or if you’re wondering what your cat will do before an earthquake, check out Weird Earth.” —Bill Nye

The Hollow Hope
Author: Gerald N. Rosenberg
Publisher: University of Chicago Press
ISBN: 0226726681
Category : Political Science
Languages : en
Pages : 541
Book Description
In follow-up studies, dozens of reviews, and even a book of essays evaluating his conclusions, Gerald Rosenberg’s critics—not to mention his supporters—have spent nearly two decades debating the arguments he first put forward in The Hollow Hope. With this substantially expanded second edition of his landmark work, Rosenberg himself steps back into the fray, responding to criticism and adding chapters on the same-sex marriage battle that ask anew whether courts can spur political and social reform. Finding that the answer is still a resounding no, Rosenberg reaffirms his powerful contention that it’s nearly impossible to generate significant reforms through litigation. The reason? American courts are ineffective and relatively weak—far from the uniquely powerful sources for change they’re often portrayed as. Rosenberg supports this claim by documenting the direct and secondary effects of key court decisions—particularly Brown v. Board of Education and Roe v. Wade. He reveals, for example, that Congress, the White House, and a determined civil rights movement did far more than Brown to advance desegregation, while pro-choice activists invested too much in Roe at the expense of political mobilization. Further illuminating these cases, as well as the ongoing fight for same-sex marriage rights, Rosenberg also marshals impressive evidence to overturn the common assumption that even unsuccessful litigation can advance a cause by raising its profile. Directly addressing its critics in a new conclusion, The Hollow Hope, Second Edition promises to reignite for a new generation the national debate it sparked seventeen years ago.
