Exploding a Myth: Conventional Wisdom or Scientific Truth? 1st Edition
by Jeremy Dunning-Davies (Author)
In this book Jeremy Dunning-Davies deals with the influence that
"conventional wisdom" has on science, scientific research and
development. He sets out to 'explode' the mythical conception that all
scientific topics are open for free discussion and argues that no-one
can openly raise questions about relativity, dispute the 'Big Bang'
theory, or the existence of black holes, which all seem to be accepted
facts of science rather than science fiction.

In today's modern climate with "Britain's radioactive refuse heap
already big enough to fill the Royal Albert Hall" (Edmund Conway,
Economics Editor The Daily Telegraph 28.11.06), it is alarming that
there are potential advances in hadronic mechanics which could
conceivably pave the way for new clean energies and even a safe in-house
method for the disposal of nuclear waste, that have not even been
considered by the present establishment. These examples are from the
field of physics but there can be little doubt that outside factors have
affected the progress of most, if not all, branches of science for many
years. Factors other than purely scientific ones still appear to be
exerting tremendous influences on progress in a wide variety of fields.
Is it too idealistic or naïve to expect that science should remain pure
and stay unaffected by such factors? Dr Dunning-Davies presents a
beautifully written argument that if science is to progress, and be of
any real use, these external factors must be held at bay.

"A long needed addition  to the literature, whose goal is to unmask the
mafia controlled grip on physics and science in general." - Prof.
Bernard Lavenda University degli Studi, Camerina, Italy.
