5.0 out of 5 stars The REAL deal about this book...please read before buying.
Ok. I hate to ruin the fun of some people but this book is a collection of science fiction unproven theories and scientific blunders. This book was writen as a joke for childress's intelligent buddies. It is just a book of jokes...Nothing in this book will give you any ideas on accually doing anything anti-gravity.

1.0 out of 5 stars This book is nonsense and completely useless!
I bought this book hoping to learn about gravity theories, such as those by Nikola Tesla. I was hoping this book would provide usefull information on building gravity free devices. Instead I got a book that is a circus sideshow presentation of a scientific anomoly.

I bought this book hoping to learn about gravity theories, such as those by Nikola Tesla. I was hoping this book would provide usefull information on building gravity free devices. Instead I got a book that is a circus sideshow presentation of a scientific anomoly.

Do I really care about a Santa Cruiz parlor trick that makes it look like you have stepped into a gravity well. This was a trick, why is it in this book. This is just one example of the preposturous assumtions made in this book. There is an example of a "crucial component" that is simply an escher like rectangle with some holes in it. PAHLEEZE, what hogwash. This book presents theories that the moon does not really exist, and that we never landed there. Does this have anything to do with gravity theories?

This book would have been usefull if it contained information on how to build resonate magnetic devices. Not one thing on ACTUAL gravity altering devices. If you watch the x-files religiously, if you took way to much acid and you don't like reality anymore, if you go to star trek conventions, then this book was written for you. It is consipritol garbage. Everybody knows the goverment suppresses knowledge, big deal. Teach me something new, like anti-gravity. This book will make you laugh for 15 minutes, then you will be angry that you wasted $12 bucks on it

Ok. I hate to ruin the fun of some people but this book is a collection of science fiction unproven theories and scientific blunders. This book was writen as a joke for childress's intelligent buddies. It is just a book of jokes...Nothing in this book will give you any ideas on accually doing anything anti-gravity. This entire group of books is just enterainment for overly smart and mean people. For instance it says "if you accually read it" you can create anti gravity in your home if you take this gyroscope here do this and that and this...then remove the downward force...Did you see that last part...all you have to do is follow these simple instructions and then remove the downward force...well that downward force is gravity. It took me 3 months to convince my brother this book is fiction. People have brought law suits against mr Childress because this book is a joke...I on the other hand found this book to be very amusing...i loved Dr. Zitenbops(sp) generic anti gravity equation..."STP = the unit of lubricaation" "G = 1 gravity and 1 gravity = 1x10-6 gollygees" "G! = 1 shep,= to 1.37 moecurlys"
The book keeps getting funnier everytime I read it...But if your sense of humor is not like this then dont buy it...THIS HAS BEEN ANOTHER EPISODE OF THE REAL DEAL!!!

4.0 out of 5 stars Every layman can sink his teeth into this one!, January 24, 1999
By A Customer
This review is from: The Anti-gravity handbook (Paperback)
Ready to carry out some backyard anti-gravity experiments? Then buy this book! It begins with a very detailed discussion of "gyro-biased" propulsion systems, and moves quickly into electromagnetic and solid-state devices. This book is crammed full of "Things to make ya go hummm!" Find out for yourself why some noted scientists still don't believe man ever went to the moon!

3.0 out of 5 stars Entertaining and thought provoking, October 31, 2000
By 
William Shane Crowson (Jemison, AL United States) - See all my reviews
Okay, if you are looking for detailed plans for building a working anti-G device this is not the book for you. If you want to learn to look at science and the world in a different way then buy this book. You will find some really cool and off the wall theories as well as some entertaining fiction. I enjoyed this book immensely and so did my 8 year old daughter. After reading this book you will be inspired to do further research in anti-g field. T.T. Townsend and A. Einstien were not kooks and their ideas are valid. Buy this book and start experimenting for yourself.

4.0 out of 5 stars A light-hearted introduction to advanced propulsion systems., January 23, 1999
By A Customer
Your journey towards anti-gravity research should begin here. This book is lavishly illustrated with diagrams and photographs, describing the inner most workings of theoretical anti-gravity engines, and the role of the "world grid" in UFO propulsion. If you believe that certain technologies have and are being suppressed or covered up by the governments of this planet, this book is for you.

3.0 out of 5 stars Flying Saucers, a real life passion, September 29, 2000
By 
Bob Powell (Wendell, NC United States) - See all my reviews
Len Cramp is the typical eccentric Englishman. Whatever you think of the science behind his books you can be sure that they are, to him, very serious in nature and present his heartfelt view of the way things are.

Many people who write "fantastic science" books are complete charlatans. Len is not and he uses the money from his books to fund even more, completely serious, wacky and expensive experiments.

Buy the book because its fun, buy it because you beleive, buy it so that people like Len get more chance to make the world a far more interesting place. You never know... he might be right!

2.0 out of 5 stars Anti-Gravity Handbook, October 12, 2009
Amazon Verified Purchase(What's this?)
Like many books of this type, it has some tongue in cheek moments. It talks about flying saucers, anti-gravity projects and general pseudo-science. I enjoy reading these mindless books, but the author really needs to have an English speaking person proof read these before publishing. I also find it amazing how many mis-spelled words and odd paragraphs are in here. I know the author is not a native English speaker, so you would think someone that is would read this and edit it properly. Has some interesting pictures of the Nazi saucer mythos and all as well. Some drawings and photocopies of texts. Good if you are interested in this stuff and I have added to my collection, but all of these books would have more credibility if they had more polished editing.

1.0 out of 5 stars If you like a good chuckle...., January 4, 2007
There are very few helpful ideas in this book that any one can practically use such as T.T. Browns work and the material components of the N-Machine with nothing more to offer. Like another book of Childress' I have it does not offer much and I will not be financially supporting this author anymore on ways of science

4.0 out of 5 stars The Anti-Gravity Handbook, April 13, 2005
This book gives an excellent introduction to
the world of anti-gravity theory. The Biefield-Brown
effect is explored along with other anti-gravity theories.
Possibilities of time travel, teleportation and warp drive
are explored. The editor, David Hatcher Childress does an
excellent job of putting the writings of four different authors, including himself,
together to fill out this work.
