I have received an ad for a new book:
Ethical Probe on Einstein's Followers in the U.S.A.
an Insider's View
by
Ruggero Maria Santilli
The crucial statement in the ad is that, after explaining the
conditions in which Einstein proved his results, "The author
then provides a comprehensive presentation of novel physical
conditions, identified in more recent times, under which
Einstein's relativities have been proven invalid in the
refereed technical literature."
The ad goes on to ask (in capital letters) rhetorical
questions suggesting that the new results are being suppressed
for venal reasons by the "academic-governmental complex."
The book is available in soft cover for $19.50 from
Alpha Publishing
897 Washington Street, Box 82
Newtonville, Ma. 02160 - 0082, USA
Also offered are three volumes of documentation, and a
subscription to a newsletter titled "Scientific Ethics."
The ad appears to have been written by Dr. Santilli, in very
non-idiomatic English. (See the use of "on" in the title.)
This probably makes it look flakier than it really is.
I have the impression that Santilli is a serious scientist.
I would appreciate any informed opinion of the author or his
claims. If you send me mail, I will summarize to the NET in a
few weeks.
Regards,
Chris
