I just finished this fascinating book! I have always been interested in science since watching Carl Sagan's "Cosmos" as a kid. I had always been intimidated about pursuing the interest or doing more than watching cable TV astronomy shows because I was always a lazy student about science and math.
All of which is prelude to saying that Mike Gimbel's book was compelling for me because he put it in such a powerful political context.
I hope there have been other responses from other readers. I hope others have also purchased the book. I just sent a note to some local libraries I patronize here in NE Ohio, asking them to purchase copies of your book.
As a long-time listener to the radio pseudo-science show "Coast to Coast AM" I was particularly pleased with Gimbel's merciless demolition of Michio Kaku, a long-time regular on that show.
This book is an example of the dialectical materialist science in action. It is extremely rewarding and I encourage all comrades to give it their time.
from the blurb:
This book is a response to the myths created by an idealistic theory called "Relativity". Physics and cosmology has been in a disastrous crisis for almost a century. Mathematics is not physics, yet it is treated as such. The fourth dimension exists only in mathematical equations, not in reality. Black holes do not exist. Space is not curved. There is no fundamental "God particle" from which all matter is built. Objects do not carry their own time. Above all, consciousness does not determine reality. That is the old metaphysics masquerading as science. In addition, this book is a Marxist answer to Stephen Hawking and Michio Kaku's psuedo-scientific creationist theories. Here is the endorsement by Glenn Borchardt, Ph.D, author of "The Scientific Worldview" and Director of the Progressive Science Institute: "I want to congratulate you on the excellent piece of work! I definitely like your critique of Hawking and Kaku. It puts these jokers in their place. A great job! You have done so much that is needed to expose the BS that goes for physics and cosmology today."
