Book Description
The Final Theory presents the first truly comprehensive and viable alternative to mainstream scientific beliefs, showing how a simple overlooked principle in nature finally explains and resolves many of the mysteries and paradoxes in today's science. Expand and liberate your mind with simple, sensible explanations for the most perplexing problems in physics today - without having to be a science scholar. What actually is gravity and how does it operate - is it a force, warped space-time, or something else entirely? Is anti-gravity possible? Is the speed of light truly a limit? Is faster-than-light communication possible? Does light truly have a dual wave-particle nature or has it simply been misunderstood? What does Einstein's E = mc2 equation actually mean? What is the true nature of energy? Are the new additions of "dark matter" and "dark energy" to our science really proper, and do they solve anything or just deepen the mysteries? The new scientific perspective in this easy-to-read book takes the reader through a wealth of compelling answers to the many unresolved questions that still plague mainstream science today.

A Revolutionary and Unifying Theory of Matter!.......2007-08-31
I am astounded that I did not discover this remarkable book sooner. Though I am not really a zealous follower of theoretical science, I have always been fascinated by the possibility that a "theory of everything" might resolve some of the fundamental mysteries of our universe.
For example, although our current theory of gravity is that it is simply one of the four fundamental forces in nature, it is clear that we have little understanding of the physical foundations of gravity; that is why we have all the divergent hypotheses being put forward: gravity waves, gravity particles, warping of space-time, etc. Plus, there is a good argument that the earth's gravity, as is is modeled in Newtonian terms, does in fact do real work in "pulling" objects (though this is rarely openly acknowledged), including the moon, from an otherwise straight-line motion and into a circular orbit; doing this for millions of years with no known energy source to power this work. That concern is often obscured by what seems to me a bogus use of the "work function." Where does the energy come from to divert the moon, or any orbiting object, from its straight-line momentum? And if we go with relativity theory, why do objects in space create a warping of "space-time"? Isn't that just an ad hoc theoretical position to hide the gaps of knowledge without offering any real explanatory value?
This book addresses these and so many other stubborn gaps and contradictions in current theory.
There is much to recommend this book. It provides a unique alternative to today's inadequate jumble of theories. It provides a theory that might well completely unify our understanding of basic physical phenomena. Although it might be argued that to call this theory the "final theory" is premature, and I agree that that is so, the claim is (to my surprise) actually plausible once you reflect carefully the ideas presented.
Of course skepticism is always in order in any aspect of theory construction. But skepticism is a two edged sword. It is just as foolish to "will to believe" the status quo as it is to be a naive true believer of a new theory. Open mindedness does not mean that everything that comes along is plausible. But it does mean that new ideas are considered with sincerity and not dismissed or ridiculed simply because they are startling or because they completely overturn our current understanding. The ideas in The Final Theory are quite revolutionary and startling. But it is not surprising that an idea to make sense of what is now so mysterious would indeed to be revolutionary and startling.
As with any revolutionary new theory this theory will likely be fiercely resisted by many who have invested their careers and reputations in the current array of theoretical approaches. But I believe that there will inevitably be serious consideration of this theory by very qualified scientists. It will take time before we will see much evidence of it, however. Scientists must be very cautious. They have families to support, just as the rest of us. To prematurely voice support for a theory this revolutionary will be a great risk to both aspiring and established scientists. This theory is far more fundamentally revolutionary than the new theories we see every few years in cosmology.
The book is extremely well written. The concepts are carefully explained, often with the aid of helpful diagrams, so that the reader can easily grasp the concepts. I often have trouble with advanced mathematical treatments, but in this book the mathematics is tightly argued but easily comprehended even by the mathematically impaired. The author has put in a considerable effort to help the reader understand every step of the reasoning process and the evidence marshalled to support the theory.
I have commuicated with the author and I am convinced of his complete sincerity and his deep thirst for understanding. He seems to be the kind of person who I most admire for his curiosity, his integrity, and his courgage.
If you are open-minded, yet healthily skeptical, and have a taste for the intrepid and relentless pursuit of truth, I think you will not be disappointed with this book. It is one of the most intriguing books I have ever read.
A Fresh Look At Physics.......2007-08-18
This book offers some stimulating non-mainstream ideas on many subjects in physics that are fun to read and thought provoking. The author also does a great job itemizing the fundamental inadequacies, failures and physical law violations of the standard model of physics. That alone is worth the price of the book.
It is clear a great deal of thought and effort went into writing this book. The author really seems to have put his heart and soul into this work. He goes to great pains trying to explain his ideas in a clear logical fashion.
It is a shame the author did not spend more time working out the details of his core theory of gravity before trying to use it as a jumping off point to try and explain most of the rest of physics. The heart of "The Final Theory" of gravitation contains a logical contradiction that invalidates everything that logically follows. The theory claims that the gravity of a planet or object is directly proportional to its size, not its mass. On page 93, the theory also claims that all objects in our universe double in size every 19 minutes due to universal atomic expansion. Assuming both these claims are true, the earths gravity would have to double every 19 minutes. While we may not be able to percieve the doubling in size due to universal atomic expansion, we could certainly percieve a doubling in gravitational force every 19 minutes.
Instead of relying solely on thought experiments and logic the author could have done a simple physics experiment to validate his theory. One could prove or disprove The Final Theory simply by placing a moderately sensitive (say 0.1 gram) scale measuring a small fixed mass of about 1 Kg in a transparent sealed container. Measure the weight at the base of a tall skyscraper. Then take the elevator to the top floor and measure the weight again. If "The Final Theory" is correct the weight would increase (by about 0.5 gram assuming the skyscraper was 1200 feet tall) due to the increase in distance from the earths center of mass. If Newtons Law of Gravity is correct the weight should decrease by about 1.2 grams over the same height difference due to the inverse square law decrease in gravitational force with increasing distance from the center of the earth.
While this may not be "The Final Theory" of everything, it does offer some fresh and thought provoking ideas. Its refreshing to read fresh ideas from a young mind not overly constrained by better established theories of physics. At least the author tried to explain how and why things work the way they do. He may not have succeeded in the particulars, but I applaud and appreciate his sincere efforts. With a little more formal training in physics he may make a great physicist some day.
A must read.......2007-07-24
There seems to be a lot of debate about whether or not this book provides any sound science. Our science is based upon mental models of the world; if our mental models are incorrect then how sound is our "sound science"? Instead, I would encourage you to not even bother with such a debate. Regardless of whether or not this book provides a truthful view of the world is actually irrelevant. The beauty of this book -- and why it is a must read -- is that it will take you on a mental journey (and challenge your current mental models) like none other. From this perspective, even if you take this book merely as a mental exercise you will thoroughly enjoy it. And, if perhaps, you stick with his arguments and persist to understand them (email the author if necessary; it really helped me) you may find more than what you bargained for. What more could you ask for in a book?
Final Theory - ALMOST final.......2007-07-24
An excellent book - quite articulate and well worth the price for the fresh look at physics.
It gave great solutions to supposed mysteries and weirdness of both Einstein's Relativity and Quantum Mechanics - blew them both out of the water. The answers given made you kind of slap yourself upside the head and say, why couldn't I think of that?
The one caveat: the author left things incomplete in the section of how the universe began AND that of the nature of time itself. It isn't to say that his theory of matter expansion is wrong. I don't believe he thought things through carefully enough with regards especially to the time dimension.
Other than that, it was quite excellent - and I hope Mr McCutcheon does reconsider and re-evaluate the time dimensional concept in his theory.
Theory is worth further review!!!.......2007-07-02
I am not a physicist or a scientist, but I loved this book!!!
I am an educated healthcare professional who seeks a deeper meaning and an understanding of our world and universe. McCutcheon's theory deserves at the very least, some detailed mathmatical investigations (which I would have liked to see in the text of his book!!!) He raises some profound insights into electromagnetism that seem very plausible.
I have been looking for more information about this theory and have instead found mostly blogs bashing him and this theory. Why can't we read some real discussion and analysis of the Geometry and math (particularly with regard to orbital dynamics)?
Read ALL of the book. Form an opinion. Open a dialog about the theory and work some proofs for people to check.
Mark McCutcheon....please rewrite this book and co-write it with a mathematician and something more substantial with which the scientists out there can wrestle.

INSPIRING, AGAINST-ALL-ODDS TALES OF TENACITY.......2002-02-26
This book is for you if you have ever wondered why more Jews didn't simply leave Austria and Germany before Hitler seized power of shortly afterwards.
A TOUR DE FORCE!.......2001-12-13
With a survivor's first-hand knowledge and a psychologist's insights, Whiteman describes the incredible experiences of escapees of Hitler's tyranny.
a review on The Uprooted.......2001-12-10
The Uprooted is story a that features other stories of 190 escapees. This was also written by an escapee herself. The stories are about the escapee's lives and how they lived during the Holocaust, in their own words. I think the book was very interesting to hear what it was like for different people and their experiences. It was surprising to see how much kinder (children) that were taken away from their to parents to hide from the Nazis and escaped. Overall this book was very good at getting a good understanding of what the Holocaust was like.
BEAUTIFULLY WRITTEN SURVIVAL STORIES!.......2001-11-12
This inspiring, ground-breaking book has rapidly become a classic in the Holocaust literature. It explains how some daring, resourceful and lucky Jews slipped the Nazi noose and what the aftermath of their harrowing experiences were. It makes excellent reading for students of all ages, Holocaust survivors, lay people and historians alike. Compelling human drama at its best!
Book Description
With the last will and testament, our culture has a way to settle estates and material possessions. But we don’t have a ritual for bequeathing messages of love, forgiveness, life lessons, hope, and personal legacy. Now, Nothing Left Unsaid is the first-ever nondenominational guide—at once practical and inspiring—that shows how to craft “Final Words,” a last communication to leave behind for a spouse, parent, friend, son, daughter, or grandchildren. These final healing words offer our survivors a sense of tangible closure—whether in the event of a sudden death, terminal illness, or the end of a long and well-lived life. Legacy Letters similarly provide a way to express sentiments to loved ones as they approach the end of their lives. Both legacies ensure that nothing is left unsaid.
Book Description
Berenger Sauniere, an enigmatic priest in the French village of Rennes-le-Chateau, is rumored to have found the legendary treasure of the Cathars. In 1916, Father Sauniere created his ultimate clue: he created a model of a region said to be the Calvary Mount, indicating the Tomb of Jesus. But the region on the model does not resemble the region of Jerusalem.
* Did Sauniere leave a clue as to the true location of his treasure?
* What is that treasure?
* And what became of it?
After years of research, Andre Douzet discovered the model, the location of Sauniere's treasure -- and the possible tomb of Jesus; Father Sauniere had never collected the model from the model maker's. Douzet also reveals much more new evidence:
* correspondence between Sauniere and the model maker
* records of Sauniere's large expenses in Lyons, for exotic, high tech photographic instruments
* Sauniere's esoteric, Martinist friends in Lyons
* the locale where Douzet has recovered quantities of precious and semi-precious materials
* pictures and detailed drawings of Sauniere's model.

Interesting Read BUT Ultimately Unsatisfying conclusions........2007-01-07
Overall,this volume presents more questions than answers..The mystery involved has engaged both best-selling writers and unknown(and often lunatic)hacks,and has become something of an industry for all involved...Saunire's"model"as written about in this book,is a topographical layout of certain locations near to Rennes-Le -Chateau where MAYBE the old priest found something that MAYBE consisted of some sort of treasure...
MAYBE,MAYBE,MAYBE...
Douzet is not forthcoming,and MAYBE the treasure mentioned is gold,jewels,ect,but if indeed these constitute the treasure one can only wonder why this sort of discovery would allow Sauniere to thumb his nose at his superiors,as has been documented that he did...Money may buy much,but the catholic church likes to be obeyed,especially by it's clerics,and mere money would not account for Sauniere's abiliity to flaunt not only his wealth but also his non-catholic themes in the face of his superiors,and get away with it,not in the early years of the 20th century at least,when all of this is supposed to have transpired...
MAYBE the treasure is"spiritual",like in something very mortal,and very non-divine about Jesus.."Holy Blood-Holy Grail",the book that put Rennes-Le -Chateau on the world-wide map postulates this notion,and does so a lot better than Douzet,whose iffy script leaves a lot to be desired...But while a Non-Divine Jesus,who may have survived the cross(if He ever was on it in the first place),married,moved to France and maybe sired a bloodline that exists to this day MAYBE would have raised eyebrows in 1900 such revealations certainly will not do so now...
Believers believe,DESPITE THE EVIDENCE TO THE CONTRARY,so any documented proof of a non-divine Jesus,no matter how sensational,will be discounted by the believers,and by the catholic church(which,as an institution and a business,will suffer loss if it's main product,i.e."salvation through Jesus" is shown to be a fraud)..DNA testing has shown that the so-called "Shroud of Turin"is a very new item,less than 600 years old and not a product of the time period in which Jesus is said to have lived,but facts like this rarely-if ever-interfere with the fantasies of the believers,and so the shroud still retains it's alledged magic for these people,despite scientic evidence to the contrary...History shows that it was at the council of Nicea that BY BALLOT,Jesus was given divine status,fully four hundred plus years AFTER his alledged death & ressurection,making him the only ELECTED divinity in history,and seriously eroding the notion that he was/is "divine"by any other means,but history has not prevented the believers from closing both thier eyes and thier minds to the facts if the facts threaten thier fantasies...So it is doubtful then that ANY revealation about a mortal Jesus that Sauniere MAY have uncovered 100 years ago will have any impact whatsoever today...
In any event Douzet does not answer ANY of the questions he raises in this book,so what point is he trying to make by writing and publishing it?
Not a good book.......2005-11-14
I was very disapointed with this book. It seems the author is very fond of talking, but forgets to make conclusions, and is essentially going nowhere. There is no "red line" throughout the book.
But let me be more specific. My problems with this book are :
1 : The author spends about 70% of the book talking about the sorroundings of Rennes-le-Chateau, telling us about lots of small villages and paths. But there is no map in the book!!!
This makes it impossible to follow the author unless you actually live in the area.
2 : The model mentioned in the title only occupies the last 30 pages. This is a shame, because it seems that this is where the author has some superior knowledge.
3 : There is a lack of structure in the book. It seems like a conversation has been written in form of a book.
My conclusion(!!) : Buy this if you own all other books on Rennes-le-Chateau. It has some speciel knowledge. But otherwise avoid it.

E:FC fans get this book!!.......2003-06-21
This book probably does the best job of all the E:FC books so far at portraying the characters and feel of the TV show. The Taelons characterizations are bang on. Lots of references to the TV show, especially the episode "Cloister". I like the authors explanations of minor details of the show. Like the Taelons hand gestures and why protectors frequently wear jackets. The story keeps you guessing right up to the end. Nice job blending Human and Taelon history. I liked the ending, just like the TV show. Leaves you with something to think about. Remains true to the spirit of the show. Just because the Taelons are powerful, Humans can be capable of something that they aren't. My one and only complaint would be that the chapters about the Taelons were too short! More like this please! =D

strong speculative fiction.......2002-06-26
Archeologist Waneta Young uncovers a strange looking red crystal infixed inside a piece of pottery found at a dig on a sacred mountain in the Eastern Cherokee Nation. The crystal contains an ancient destructive power guarded by anointed Cherokee shamans against those who will abuse the frightful force.
However, the human freedom resistance and the competing Taelon factions learn of the find and each struggles to take control of the red crystal. Each group assumes possession means world domination. However, unleashing the genie from the bottle may prove more dangerous and deadly than any of the competitors realize as only the Cherokee Nation understand this doomsday machine that the red crystal contains. Emancipated from the crystal prison will mean the end of the world unless Waneta the chosen one retains control of a force that none of the triad will be able to direct.
This reviewer planned to invoke the fifty-page rule expecting to waste a half an hour reading GENE RODDENBERRY'S EARTH: FINAL CONFLICT: LEGACY because long running TV series adaptations into novels usually lose steam after a few novels. However, instead this reviewer finished a great tale in one sitting. Glenn R. Sixbury does the impossible of adhering to the nature of the TV cast while enhancing their known personality quirks and traits (Zo'or's depiction is amazing) yet provides freshness with a strong tale that includes the trifecta conflict and a deep look into Cherokee mythos. Fans of the series will relish this powerful action-packed tale while those not familiar will enjoy a strong speculative fiction novel.

Legacy lives up to potential.......2002-06-19
I admit, I don't read media tie-ins very often. Since I like the Earth Final Conflict series---particularly the earlier seasons-I decided to take a chance on Glenn Sixbury's Legacy. To my delight, I discovered that Sixbury not only stays true to the characters, he gives them depth that is not apparent in a one-hour television show. He expands on the best features of the Earth Final Conflict series and adds a few twists of his own.
In particular, I found his scenes between Da'an and Zo'or riveting. Sixbury has captured the Taelon movements perfectly. His interpretations of their hand motions, their expressions, and their political machinations are fascinating and believable.
The plot is unique, as well. The story centers around Archeologist Waneta Long and her discovery of an ancient Cherokee artifact. It quickly becomes apparent that this artifact is of interest to the Taelons and therefore to the resistence movement, as well. Unknowingly, Waneta becomes a pawn in the three-sided struggles between the opposing Taelon factions and the human resistence movement.
Though she is not part of the series, I found Long to be a sympathetic character in a captivating situation. Sixbury's use of Cherokee mythology and mysticism dovetails nicely with Taelon "history." Overall, Glenn Sixbury's Legacy is a fun read, both for fans of the show and those who have never seen it before.

Extremely informative yet completely enjoyable.......2004-03-07
This book is filled with interesting facts as well as many interesting theories (all very reasonably analyzed by the author). And because it is written as a dialogue between the author and God, it is a pleasure to read.
The chapters detailing the relationship between Christianity and pagan religions should be essential reading for every believer. The case against Christianity couldn't be made more obvious than it is here. Anyone who reads these chapters and doesn't at least begin to wonder is beyond hope.
Provacative.......2002-02-19
His take on the American religious types like the JW, Mormons, SDA's are excellent. Sometimes people simply need to be given digestible simple examples that speak volumes and not a lengthy dissertation. The author does this well. And I like that he uses the term superstition well.
Those who hold onto religious beliefs because of fear of being ostracized, or because they need to "belong" or because this is the way it has always been will feel some pain when they read the book. The same way an alcoholic hates to be told he is an addict. In fact that's what this book basically points out. Addicts who are afraid to be healthy.
Biting...and painful..........2001-05-23
Joseph's book was the first one I read when I was questioning Christianity. Needless to say, it provoked me to not only read other books, but started me on a road I never dreamed I would be on. A book of this proportion carries a lot of weight, and unfortunately, responsibility. I say responsibility not because I feel he has an obligation to you, I, or anyone else, but at the same time, his words are so provoking, that in a sense, there is responsibility on the reader's part to exam what we will learn from them. Joseph does a phenomenal job in presenting his case concerning many aspects of Christianity. He is astute, easy to read, and very well researched. The topics in the book hit hard and ruthless in some areas. At a few points I was afraid he came across as an angry, bitter, atheist. Atheism is anything but that, and I see now the areas in question were simply tougher issues we need to deal with.
Whether you accept Joseph's view or not, I feel this book is an excellent look at why many do not accept Christianity in any form. The issues are very real, and the presentation is very smooth. If you need a look into the logical mind of those who do not accept Christianity at face value, then this is an excellent, unsung hero for the part. I encourage you to explore your beliefs.
Excellent resource.......2001-01-03
Joseph does a great job of showing how the christian religion has distorted the concept of god, and how it picks and chooses what it will and will not accept in the bible. He shows that, at best, the bible is a group of texts that simply contradict themselves through and through. I recommend this book to anyone who is willing to seek truth with an open mind. As someone already mentioned, the people who NEED to read it, will never do so, because they will scream in anger as their 'house of cards topples'. Although you can not simply take one book only to base your beliefs on, Joseph does a fabulous job of research and has a 38 page bibliography. He is well read and very astute. Bravo Joseph!
Devastating!.......2000-08-30
Joseph Daleiden's book is the most thorough, single volume refutation of the Judeo-Christian mythology in print.
Highly recommended!

Are We Forgetting the Final Warning?.......2006-05-23
Chernobyl was one of the most horrible disasters in human history. It was a galvanizing event in my life. It made me very active and pushed me to learn and aprticipate far more than I ever imagined prior to it -- a defining event much like the Tianamen Square massacre was.
As soon as it came out I read and reviewed Dr. Gayle's book Final Warning. It is a gut-wrenching read and an invaluable eye-witness account of this terrible nuclear disaster. It is very informative and also extremely moving. When you think of the legacy this event will have on an entire generation of children, it is frightening.
Even more frightening, however, is the fact that many seem to have forgotten the lesson this book and Chernobyl teaches the world. There is a renewed push now, because of high gas prices, to start building new reactors in every community.
Please read this excellent resource and educate yourself to the potential dangers.
