Rejoinder and Rebuttal
7. Dezember 2002
I'm pleased to see this is in print. This special issue of KRONOS continues the demolition -- begun in an earlier special issue "Velikovsky and Establishment Science" -- of the Cornell work (the title of which should be obvious). This volume deals for the most part with the planet Venus. Only Alban Wall's contribution and the "Vox Populi" section is not actually part of the rebuttal.
These two issues of KRONOS were prepared in response to the published critiques, abuse, etcetera which were heaped on Velikovsky in what amounted to a public show trial -- conducted under the auspices of the AAAS -- familiar to those who have studied the Stalinist era.
For those who don't know and can't be bothered to find out -- Velikovsky has nothing to do with UFOs, Sasquatch, or extraterrestrial intelligence. Various parties continue to use such ad hominem attacks against the polymath Velikovsky, who died over twenty years ago. Beware of such folk -- they're the kind who want to squash debate, eliminate dissent, and crush opposition, all the while professing to be protecting you.

velikovsky
27. November 2002
If you actually take time to read Velikovsky (who is very easy to understand) you will see that 'Earth in Upheaval' has nothing to do with myth, religion, or fables. Velikovsky supports his ideas and theories with evidence strictly from geology and the earth. Glaciers, rivers, mountains, icebergs, and fossils are all tools used to support Velikovsky.
The reason he caused such a stir is because he first supported his theories in 'Worlds in Collision' by use of fable, myth, history, and legends that have been passed down. Both books lead to the same conclusions, and the evidence he presents is mounting on both sides of coin (fable, myth, legend, history vs geology. )
Most people who disregard Velikovsky have usually done so without even reading his works. If you have no room for interpretation of myth, legend, scripture, or history; in order to understand his theories you must read 'Earth in Upheaval'. There isn't a peep of myth in it, so those of you who have no tolerance for anything that isn't concrete, you still should be able to get the message through EiU.

Space Alien Abductions And The Like
27. Januar 2002
Readers who are fascinated with such subjects as Big Foot, Loch Ness Monsters, Noah's Ark, and Space Alien Abductions will likely be able to read this book. Anyone seriously interested in either science or history would do well to eschew Velikovsky unless they possess a robust sense of humor.
