Theories:
Space, Time, and
Matter and the Falsity of Einstein’s Theory of Relativity
By Kaman
George Kamenov, Vintage Press, New York 2000
Description:
Theoretical
physics has been hopelessly stalled for over 100 years. The reason is the
falsity of Einstein’s Theory of Relativity. A few years ago, NASA sent into
space four satellites with gyroscopes to test the theory, project called
“Gravity Probe B”. Just the fact that NASA is testing the theory speaks of
itself: The theory is wrong. Why otherwise would you test something if it is
right? Until now (4 years later) NASA still did not publish the results. Why?
The results didn’t match the predictions of the theory. There are two options.
NASA must admit that the Theory of Relativity is wrong which will turn upside
down the whole of physics, or must admit that they built faulty testing
equipment wasting one billion of taxpayer dollars. NASA is thinking what to do
and is trying to manipulate the data, they call it
“cleaning” the data (to make them look right). It’s a cover-up. Meanwhile my
book was out of print, after many people realized that
I was right the book skyrocketed in price. Recently it was reselling in
Divergent Amazon reviews:
In 1972 the famous British professor
Herbert Dingle, an ex-relativist who turned into antirelativist, published a
book against relativity titled: Science
at the crossroads. Because of that he was gradually removed from the
"scientific" establishment. Kamen Kamenov's book is one of the books,
alongside those of Herbert Dingle, Harald Nordenson and Henri Bergson, highly
recommendable to those who really want to understand how incurably flawed and
useless the "theory" in question is and why it should be abandoned in
its entirety. Some books are hard to find. Look in "bookfinder.com"
and read about the above mentioned authors in Wikipedia.
Mr Kamenov shows that
his knowledge about relativity is virtually non existent. Just one example is
his statment that the Michelson-Morley experment should have shown an
interference patern due to length contraction. Length contraction only occures
if two objects have a relative motion. Since the A - B arm had no relative
motion with respect to the observer, no length
contraction is predicted by relativity. The book only has value to the extent
that a student of Relativity might be chalenged a bit, and thus increase their
knowledge, if they are able to explain why Mr Kamenov is wrong.
The Einstein Myth and
the Ives Papers: A Counter-Revolution in Physics [Paperback]
Edited by
Dean Turner and
Richard Hazelett. Hope Publishing 2005
Description:
This is a
reprint of the 1980 edition originally published by Devin-Adair Publishers of
Old Greenwich, CT. Turner and Hazelett have compiled the papers on the Ives'
response to Einstein's theories. It is a monumental scientific work that
shatters relativity theory and replaces it with a new, readily understood
theory that is in conformity with all known phenomena. It restores logical
clarity, common sense and realism to the study of space and time and opens the
door to greater freedom of creative research, speculation, progress and
practical discovery in the fields of physics and cosmology. The notes alone
reveal startling, unexpected, little known facts that read like a mystery story.
Questioning Einstein:
Is Relativity Necessary?
by
Description:
A serious scholarly work that is very well written, absorbing the reader
in a tale of long-neglected experimental results that plays out to a deep
satisfaction in finally answering the question, "Why can't I understand
relativity?"
This is a fresh, unique review of both special and general relativity. It takes
for granted that Einstein s mathematics is properly done. It does not quarrel
with the numerous experimental results that support Einstein's general
relativity theory.
Then what is the quarrel with
Einstein? Bethell argues that special relativity theory is wrong and general
relativity theory is not necessary. For example, Einstein himself derived E
= mc2 without relativity theory, and he also argued in a lecture in 1920 at
Leiden that space without ether is unthinkable, only 15 years after having said
that the ether was superfluous.
Bethell's book is not mathematical;
after all, he does not quarrel with Einstein s mathematics. Importantly, it is
strongly based on experimental foundations. Time dilation, for example, is
supported by but not proved by moving muons and clocks carried around the
globe.
In particular, Bethell promotes Petr
Beckmann s case that the medium of propagation of light is the dominant
gravitational field. That idea is actually part and parcel of Einstein s
general theory of relativity, save that the latter hides the simplicity behind
tensors in curved space-time.
Mr. Bethell
is a journalist in
He has written several
books, including The Noblest Triumph: Property and Prosperity through the
Ages (
His new book on Einstein's
theory of relativity is written for the benefit of laymen, includes no math and
argues that the facts of physics can be more simply explained without
relativity theory. In plain language, it advances the views of Petr Beckmann,

Challenging Modern
Physics: Questioning Einstein's Relativity Theories
By Al Kelly. Brown
This book starts with a
description of the special theory of relativity. It is shown that Einstein was
not the first to derive the famous equation E = mc2, which has become
synonymous with his name. Next, experimental evidence that cannot be explained
by special relativity is given. In the light of this evidence, the two basic
postulates of the special theory of relativity on the behaviour of light are
shown to be untenable. A new theory (universal relativity) is developed, which
conforms to the experimental evidence.
The movement of a conductor
near a pole of a magnet and the movement of that pole near the conductor does
not always give the same result. It has been claimed that this contradicts
relativity theory. Experiments described in this book show that it is not
special relativity but another basic law of physics that is contradicted -
Faraday's Law.
The Big Bang theory of the
beginning of the universe is questioned and an alternative proposed. The source
of much of the mysterious missing 'dark matter' that has been sought for
decades by astronomers is located. An explanation of the shapes of some
galaxies is proffered.
This book presents an
alternative to Einstein's special theory of relativity, solves many problems
left unanswered by special relativity, gives a better fit to many phenomena and
experimental data and is more philosophically appealing. It is recommended to
all people interested in fundamental issues of physics and cosmology--Professor
Andre Assis,
The book treats its subject
properly, not just as an impersonal set of equations, but rather as a
developing saga full of human triumph and failure. One learns from both
experimental results and simple logical argument that all is not well with
modern physics.--Dr. Neal Graneau,

The particle
nature of the photon has now come into question.
“In 1969, Lamb and Scully showed that one could account
for the photoelectric effect without using the concept of photon as a minimum
packet of light energy. They were able to introduce an entirely different
theory of the photo-electric effect, one that did not invoke the concept of
light’s particle nature. They concluded that the photo-electric effect does not
prove that photons exist.” In
addition,
George Greenstein writes;
‘[In 1956] The Hansbury-Brown and Twiss experiment failed
to demonstrate the existence of photons and the indivisibility of weak light.
It actually showed that light seemed to travel through space “bunched up”. One
can divide the bunch in half, and the two half bunches arrive at the different
photo detectors at the same time. These result startled the physics community
and launched an entirely a new discipline, the explicit study of quantum nature
of light.’

mechanics
George Greenstein, Arthur
Zajonc 2006
Later on, the same experiment was repeated by laser,
which still did not support the particle nature of light. In 1986, in the
Grangier, Roger, and Aspect experiment, the non-divisibility of a light unit
was shown as evidence of the presence of photons. They used a well-collimated
stream of calcium atoms. In their next experiment, they allowed the photon to
pass through a Mach-Zehnder interferometer. They obtained an interference
pattern as a path length traveled by light in one arm of the interferometer was
increased relative to the other. So, light divided and passed thorough both
ways. Again, the result pales the concept of the photon. Greenstein and Zajong
conclude:
