Description:
Once past the excessive ranting about Carl Sagan in The Monkey and the Tetrahedron, the reader will find a crackerjack compendium of proven, but generally ignored, scientific findings and some compelling theories that tie them all together. While David Jinks's master's degree is in business rather than physics, he compiles information and documents his contentions with the fury of an accountant searching for misappropriated funds. Be glad he's not an auditor for the IRS. Fans of conspiracy theory will revel in the author's brutally blunt questions and hyper-logical deductions concerning transparent distortions supposedly perpetrated by the federal government and allied organizations: Did the 1993 Mars Observer mission really get lost? Does cold fusion overthrow the First Law of Thermodynamics (and corporate interests) by creating more energy than it consumes? Could crop circles be related to the Earth's weakening magnetic field instead of pranksters? Why do highly respected American astronauts believe in UFOs? Read The Monkey and The Tetrahedron and consider the ramifications of these and other important questions. --P. Randall Cohan
