Book Description
Recorded history is a finely-woven magic fabric of intricate lies about events predating the sixteenth century. There is not a single piece of evidence that can be reliably and independently traced back earlier than the eleventh century. This book details events that are substantiated by hard facts and logic, and validated by new astronomical research and statistical analysis of ancient sources.

Calculations are only as good as your numbers.......2007-08-03
Yes, we can all agree that mainstream history is nearly 100% BS due to politics, economics, ego, problems with dating techniques, and various conspiracies. Agreed. But, I've been researching the distinct possibility that human history (in terms of civilizations) are much more ancient than we've been told, so coming across this book was very interesting to me. I wondered how Fomenko could be wrong (if at all) because he is very persuasive in his presentations. Then it dawned on me. If at previous times in prehistory, due to the various catastrophies that are well documented (comets, asteroids, planetary disruptions, plasma discharge, pole reversals, etc) the Earth was in a different position in relation to the sun, different tilt on its axis, different orbit, different rotation (in terms of velocity and DIRECTION), and the continents were in different positions, then would this not cause the ancients to see the sky (constellations) differently? In other words, is Fomenko making erronious assumptions about the physics of the Earth in pre-history, which then corrupt his data with regards to dating the relevant astrology? The last event to seriously disrupt our planet occured roughly 3500 years ago, according to other good researchers, so is it possible Fomenko has been confused by this? The vastly different physics of our planet in the not so distant past may explain this confusion, which is not to say the "mainstream" version of history is correct; on the contrary. I am not an expert in these fields, but wanted to see if this idea could spark discussion.
Pants on fire?.......2007-07-19
Will people ever read before spamming? Yes, Jesuits could not rewrite world history alone, they had help. Anyway, Dr Prof Acad A.Fomenko does not point to jesuits as the driving force of world wide history manipulation in published volumes 1,2,3;, actually he barely mentions the poor devils. Check it with 'Search inside' feature, please. China is rarely mentioned either, in fact, Dr Fomenko is completely eurocentric. Right, his theory contradicts all mainstream schools of history, because in their actual state they are all built on blatantly erroneus chronology. You don't need a mysterious cabal (conspiracy) to falsify history, the falsification is its modus operandi. It is inherent to history(ians) to falsify (distort) events, as it is inherent to humans to boast as it is inherent to power (authority) to legimize itself by referrring to glorious past made to its own order. Dr Prof Fomenko and team have identified scores of instances of such manipulation in Russian, European, etc.. history, and delivered valid statistical proof thereof. His own 'reconstruction' is completely another story. Forget c14 as a valid method of dating. W.Libby has initially discovered a brilliant method of INDEPENDENT dating. Too bad, c14 method has become a joke after a forced marrige with dendrochronology with consensual chronological scale inbuilt. Radiocarbon method can't stand blind tests, but is so very productive as a rubberstamp.
Accepted History & Chronology Must Be Changed. .......2007-04-09
There is no doubt that history as most know it is a sham, & institution's version of History both University & Church is fradulent & inaccurate. Everything was established with an agenda, The real "Dark Ages" are now when we have access to incredible amounts of information past authorities & more important 'common folk' didn't have but our institutions & educators are slow to evolve because of what has ignorantly & arrogantly been taught for too long. This is on many subjects not just Chronology.
For anyone to question "Why would a Mathematician have anything credible to say of History?" The answer is from Dr. Fomenko's preface in the book: "It would be worthwhile to remind the reader that in the XVI-XVII century Chronology was considered to be a subdivision of Mathematics." These volumes could possibly be some of the most important works to date & should be read by everyone with an interest in History, especially professors & educators who have a duty to the public. I have read both books & must say that 'Chronology 1' has some very eye opening & revolutionary information. Even if these volumes are part true the implications are profound & opens the doors to further investigations & questions which must be done. I speak several different lanquages & must say the logic Dr. Fomenko uses with "inflection" of words & words being read from left to right in one region & right to left in another then written backwards, the removal of vowels & get down to basics of words, or different cities & locations having the same name etc. is correct. Vowel usage has always been optional & varied, actually complicating linquistics & study. The first thing one has to understand is that words never had a fixed spelling in history like we do now, the spelling of words was mutable & regional, as well as names & titles of people were vast, varied & changed, NOTHING WAS FIXED or understood linear. Matters of Life & Death as well as financial profiteering yesterday & today were & are made with ignorant, illogical & conspiratorial views of history & reality, it's time people get closer to the Truth & society collectively grow up.
Very Interesting.......2007-03-07
It is a good proposal and I believe it will mature into something even better in the future. I think it deserves to be read.
History as Science Fiction.......2007-01-10
Anatoly Fomenko has written a very intriguing book, full of pictures, charts, and computer 'proof' of his thesis: backwards of AD900 we don't really know what happened or when. Between AD900 and AD1600 there is more certainty, but there is still a lot of fuzzy ground, and things don't get reliable until we get past the 1600's where the printing press made it very difficult for the perpetrators of this timeline manipulation to change anything that had been committed to print. The Dark Ages did not happen. Books were burned for a reason. One organization has doubled the actual length of its existence by expanding the real chronology. Read why.
I had always wondered why Christ died about AD33 and yet men waited until the 11th century to form the Knights Templar, the Cathars, etc and go after the Holy Land by force. Why the 1000 year gap? Turns out there wasn't more than a 10-12 year gap and he proves it using astronomy. This also implies that the planet is not as old as we have been told, and current Christian and other creationist scientists are already championing that idea without being aware of Fomenko's book. The two groups, creationist scientists and the Russian mathematical analysts corroborate each other. Fascinating.
Of course, all this flies in the face of what we have been told traditionally is the 'proper' chronology of western civilization, and most readers will experience 'cognitive dissonance' in reading this book. It means that our history going backwards from AD1600 becomes progressively more incorrect and unreliable until it cannot be trusted at all... in the space of 700-800 years.
Naturally, the curious, open-minded reader will want to know WHO did this, WHY, and did any of the events we think of as really ancient ever happen?
Dr. Fomenko is a respected scientist/mathematician at Moscow State University who has already answered these questions to the satisfaction of his initially skeptical colleagues. Most of them are now believers, a few still refuse to believe (the usual diehards), and of course the western press has ignored Fomenko's work -- for obvious reasons when you read the book. The ones who perpetrated this chronology ruse have a lot to answer for. They are still with us. That's why this book is a well-kept secret.
I gave the book a 4-star rating because I was unable to check out some of his claims; those I checked were as he said. But if even 1/3 of his claims are true, this punches a big hole in what we think is our history, the meaning of western civilization, our educational process (for repeating the ruse as gospel), and the trustworthiness of the organization that perpetrated this ruse, well-intentioned or not.
This book relates to current research into a Young Earth paradigm, to John Keel's discoveries about our planet, and Fr Malachi Martin's insights (in his now out-of-print books). We are indeed sheep who are manipulated and kept ignorant -- for a reason. While knowing what these men have to say may be the "booby prize" (as in: 'what can you do with this knowledge?'), it will provide interesting reading. Didn't someone say: "...and the Truth will set you free."?? For you to judge if this book contains the truth.
Book Description
Joesten's WORLD OF CHEMISTRY: ESSENTIALS is known for effectively presenting chemistry in terms understandable to the non-science major. The Fourth Edition continues to clearly explain the importance of chemistry and the impact it has on students' daily lives by including topics that are interesting to students early in the text and by explaining the relevance of the chemical principles students hear about every day in the news. To help students develop a general appreciation of the effect chemistry has on their lives, the authors take a less-theoretical approach to the basics and offer thought-provoking chapter-opening questions, a wealth of pertinent examples, and NEW "Chemistry in Movies" boxes. Additionally, application chapters are now included earlier in the text to further demonstrate to students the relevance of the chemistry they are studying. OWL (Online Web-based Learning), our fully customizable and flexible web-based homework management system and assessment tool, is now available with this text.

Book Description
The scattering of electromagnetic radiation by nonspherical particles has become an increasingly important research topic over the past 20 years. Instead of handling anisotropic particles of arbitrary shape, the authors consider the more amenable problem of aggregates of spherical particles. This is often a very satisfactory approach as the optical response of nonspherical particles depends more on their general symmetry and the quantity of refractive material than on the precise details of their shape. The book addresses a wide spectrum of applications, ranging from scattering properties of water droplets containing pollutants, atmospheric aerosols and ice crystals to the modeling of cosmic dust grains as aggregates.

Concise Guide to Geriatric Psychiatry (Concise Guides)
ASIN: 0880488239 |
Book Description
What do clinicians need to know to safely and effectively prescribe psychotropic medications to elderly patients?
Clinicians can now turn to this definitive handbook for answers. Here, three experienced pharmacologists offer a true "how to" guide to prescribing medications in the geriatric population, drawing on their own clinical experience and reading of the literature in geriatric psychopharmacology.
This concise handbook is replete with valuable advice (e.g., drug dosing, titration) for day-to-day clinical practice. Each chapter covers a major psychotropic class, detailing the pharmacology, clinical use, side effects, and treatment of selected syndromes and disorders, plus a unique quick-reference summary of prescribing data on selected drugs. Concluding chapters detail the treatment of substance-related disorders, movement disorders, and dementias and other cognitive syndromes in the elderlyin-depth discussions that are simply not available elsewhere.
Written for residents, fellows, and clinicians in psychiatry and medicine who diagnose and treat psychiatric and neuropsychiatric conditions that can affect geriatric patients, this clinical reference can be used across all treatment settings for the elderly (e.g., inpatient, outpatient, day hospital, consultation, and nursing homes). Geriatric and general psychiatrists, geriatric medical specialists, internists and family practitioners, medical students and residents, and case managers and social workersall will come to rely on this handy guide for the critical information needed to provide optimal care for our fast-growing population of elderly patients.

The Menopause Revolution: Smashing the HRT Myth Dr. Martin Milner, Professor, published author, and groundbreaking physician takes on the often misunderstood and all to often ignored subject of menopause with the passion of a man on a mission. The choice of whether or not to undertake synthetic hormone therapyonce a fairly easy decision to makehas become much more complicated in light of the dangerous side-effects that have been revealed in several large studies. What many women dont know is that they do have another choice. Effective, all-natural, hormone therapies are available Dr. Milner challenges the conventional wisdom of the one-size-fits-all approach to menopause. Instead he stresses the importance of testing and monitoring to determine exactly what actions are needed to help guide a woman successfully through the menopause years By shattering the myths surrounding menopause and hormone therapy Dr. Milner empowers women with the knowledge they need to make the best choices for themselves.

At Last a book that tells the TRUTH about Menopause, HRT and Our choices.......2005-11-22
This book is long over due to smash the HRT myth and the approach used by many physicians in treating menopause. Women are prescribed estrogen, never tested or retested at appropriate intervals. Many women do not have the time to do the reading available on bookshelves or on the web regarding menopause and HRT. After I retired, I developed health issues and having been in the health profession, I searched the literature to be informed when I saw my doctor. My thyroid medication and treatment had failed. No other help was offered and I was in bed half of the day. I just ran out of steam with my thyroid limping along. Normally, I was very active with an abundance of energy. I was desparate for help. A web search for a doctor specializing in hormones came up with Dr. Milner's name. Dr. Milner knew exactly what to do with the thyroid medication and the HRT therapy. Compounding these medications was the answer and not that costly. It was the ultimate answer for me. My HMO could not compound any medications and could provide no other alternatives. Within a year, I am a new women. Once again busy,actively traveling with family. Dr. Milner is very knowledgeable, keeps up with the latest literature and is well published. When his book became available I purchased it. If you don't have time to do the research this book will give you insight for good questions, tools and wonderful resources. I highly recommend it.

Locked Up for Eating Too Much: The Diary of a Food Addict in Rehab
ASIN: 0195080904 |
Book Description
U.S. census figures forecast that the percentage of U.S. citizens over the age of 65 will double between 1980 and 2030. Estimates that between 3 and 10% of this group are prone to alcohol abuse points to the potential for an increasingly ominous health care problem. Alcohol and Aging, the first comprehensive treatment of the topic written for clinicians, covers a wide range of issues unique to elderly alcoholics, from diagnosis and treatment to alcohol-related medical and cognitive disorders, from problems arising from interactions between alcohol and medication to the biochemistry of intoxication. Throughout, the book focuses on clinical, practical problems and stays away from jargon, making it accessible to a wide range of readers. Featuring contributions a diverse group of specialists, the book will be an invaluable aid to physicians, psychiatrists, clinical psychologists, and social workers who treat alcoholism in the aging population.

Mind opening, life changing.......2002-07-28
Dr. Cranton's book was the first I had read about possibilities beyond what traditional medicine insists are the only alternatives: bypass, angioplasty, heart catheterization, etc. (Notice that all of these treatments hurt, are dangerous, and often don't work.) My husband had just had a mild heart attack; and we had the good fortune to be in touch with one of the contributors to Dr. Cranton's book, a cardiologist who took my husband as a patient. He describes traditional treatment as "The Widow Maker." We studied Cranton, began chelation, and are healthier, 6 years later, than we've been in 20 years. This is valid information about a non-invasive and non-painful process.
Required Reading!.......2001-10-09
In today's medical marketplace, Dr. Cranton's book should be
required reading because each of will fall prey to the ravages
of longer lives - hopefully. I have spent most of my life engaged
in biomedical research and have taught both medical and graduate
students. With this history, I want to tell readers they have
every reason to doubt most of what they hear from the medical community.
Dr. Cranton provides a clearly developed case for EDTA chelation
therapy. I especially appreciate the inclusion of his own review
article, complete with requisite scientific references (all 233).
I am greatly frustrated by Dr. Cranton's attempt to satisfy, now
outdated, scientific criteria for 'treatment efficacy' by means
of 'double-blind' control studies with EDTA. I am happy to tell
him that that method is considered unethical by the World Health
Organization and directly opposes the approach of his American
(AMA)'peers'. W.H.O. has adopted the Declaration of Helsinki
which states that a treatment is effective if it does as well,
or better than, currently practiced therapies. Of course, one
hopes that the primary ethic, 'do no harm', always applies.
According to these guidlines, EDTA therapy looks very effective
and worthy of our consideration.
Finally, I am ashamed to admit that while I lay in the hospital
after my third MI, I allowed a small group of 'serious-faced'
medics convince me that I would die without a 4-vessel bypass.
I won't waste space here on the outcome because I have had many
of the problems documented in Dr. Cranton's book.
Now that I am 4 years post-op, it is clear that, despite many
lifestyle changes, I am going to need more serious efforts to
recreate my health. So, within a week I will start a series of
EDTA chelation treatments - hopefully to gain some of the
benefits outlined in Dr. Cranton's book. I'll be back with

Emmm- pseudoscientific piffle.......2001-02-13
I bought this book to give it a shot- Being trained in medicine one does tend to view these 'fringe therapies' with a distrust. But I thought I would approach it with an open mind.
I am sorry but the book just doesn't cut the mustard as far as scientific rigour goes.
There are reasons that these kinds of therapies aren't part of the mainstream- sometimes it is because the medical profession do not give them a good chance to prove their worth, but other times it is because they have been given their chance, and sadly don't prove their worth!
Medical therapies of all kinds have side effects as well as beneficial effects (indeed my side-effect may be your benefit)- and it would appear to me that chelation therapy runs more risk of killing you than helping you. This is just my opinion though.
I would advise people not to buy this book but to concentrate on other literature- such as JAMA, the BMJ, the Lancet, NEJM and so on.
Bypassing Bypass.......2000-01-13
I have not had heart problems, thank God,though I know others that have and then did Chelation Therapy and can attest to the improvements they have experienced as a result. I read this book as a marketer of Oral Chelation products with EDTA. Dr. Cranton's description of treatments and the help that he documents patients receiving is truely astounding! I since have had others in the CardioCare industry admit to me that, as Dr. Cranton states, some 50% or more of Bypass surgery is unneccasary! It is Big business! EDTA has been used for 30+ years by the Navy to cleanse sailors of lead and Dr. cranton makes the point that it is also effective in chelating many other metals from our system. I continue to take Oral Chelation daily and at 53 continue to act like I'm 33. A wonderful and inspiring book to open ones eyes to the wonders of Alternative medicines ignored and discouraged by the established Medical/Pharmaceutical Industrial Complex.
A Paradigm Shift in Understanding Heart Disease.......1999-03-17
How can this Book have not had more reviews? It changed my life and launched a career.
Dr. Cranton answered the question which the doctor for my just-dead mother could not answer. I, a grieving son, asked, as you would, "Doctor, what causes heart disease?" He said "no one knows!"
I had to accept that in the hospital waiting room, my mother's cold body pulling my attention away from the ignorance of modern medicine. But, I continued to look. I DID find books, many of them, by cardiologist, etc., where some doctor said "no one knows."
Then, I found Dr. Cranton's Book. Actually this experience goes to his first edition. The book explained to me, a rational businessman, what was causing heart disease and how to prevent it.
Within a few years I had learned tons more data about heart disease and launched an entire new career -- but Dr. Cranton's book was the beginning.

In Your Face and In Your Best Interests.......2000-04-08
This book is a perfect complement to Anne Branscomb's, and provides a well-told tale, researched in partnership with a private investigator, of just what can be gotten on you through the electronic web within which we all live our lives. This book is the tactical gutter in your face version, Branscomb's book is the academic dissection.
