5.0 out of 5 stars The emancipated mind of Nikola Tesla, August 20, 2000

This review is from: Occult Ether Physics: Tesla's Hidden Space Propulsion System and the Conspiracy to Conceal It (2nd Revised Edition) (Paperback)
Hi, folks: I think that Bill Lyne's book "Occult Ether Physics" provides an accurate description and insightful perspective on the mind and ideas of Nikola Tesla as well as the related political issues. Tesla had the unique ability to mentally test his ideas through thought experiments similar to today's computer simulations, then further explore them by field testing. Today, almost all applications of electromagnetism, including the computer that you're using to read this review, use Tesla technology, but he didn't get the credit. I have a Bachelor of Science degree in Physical Chemistry, an MBA and 40+ years of experience as a science writer for the pharmaceutical industry in the USA. I think that completion of a course in elementary college physics will be helpful to understand Bill Lyne's book. However, this basic information is also available in excellent textbooks by Isaac Asimov and Carl Sagan, and various web sites (use the keyword "physics" on your search engine). For basic information on Tesla and his ideas, visit Crystallinks.com. I enjoyed reading "Occult Ether Physics" and I encourage all people interested in physics o read it and Bill's companion book "Pentagon Aliens." Cheers. Carl Zimmerman

5.0 out of 5 stars Best Physics Book I Ever Read!, October 5, 2005
This review is from: Occult Ether Physics: Tesla's Hidden Space Propulsion System and the Conspiracy to Conceal It (2nd Revised Edition) (Paperback)
Occult Ether Physics is the best physics book I have ever read. The author explains the original ether theories that originated in the 1880s very clearly. And the author explains how manipulating the ether could be used to propel a spaceship. This book is a paradyne shift back to the way scientists used to think about physics before relativity came along. I think all physics students should read this book.

5.0 out of 5 stars Author's "Review", August 17, 2000
By 
William Lyne (Lamy, New Mexico u.S.A.) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Occult Ether Physics: Tesla's Hidden Space Propulsion System and the Conspiracy to Conceal It (2nd Revised Edition) (Paperback)
For the intelligent reader, this book traces the thread of discovery of electrical UFO propulsion from the early research (complete with scientific documentation) beginning with such scientists as Michael Faraday, Wm. Thomson (Lord Kelvin), J.J. Thomson, F. Guthrie, G.F. FitzGerald, B. Riemann, J. MacCullagh, E. H. Hall, G.C.F. Searle, C.A. Bjerknes, G.C. Maxwell, O. Heaviside, J.H. Poynting, and finally to its first discovery and earliest laboratory tests by Nikola Tesla in ca. 1894. Here is the documentation, in the international scientific journals of the world and other publications, including those by or about Nikola Tesla, prior to 1900! Tesla tells you in his own words how this technology works, based on his theory of the aether. Yet, according to my analysis, these discoveries have been hidden from the world primarily through Relativism, which began to be promulgated by the media giants in 1919, the same year as the Treaty of Versailles. It is my opinion that Relativism was intended to wipe "ether physics" from the mind of the scientific world, because the media giants, owned and controlled by the industrial giants and international banking interests, feared the consequences of an ether science which would destroy their monolithic control and interests. Hence, I have resurrected this hidden (i.e., "occult") ether science, in "Occult Ether Physics", which is used in the secret UFOs possessed by the interests controlling the national security establishments of the major governments of the world.

Also included is a chapter entitled "Free Energy Massacre; the Atomic Hydrogen Process", which contains information on anomalous energy produced by the (suppresed) athomic hydrogen process, and well as what could be called "The Great Gasoline Fraud", and reference to another book (actually a technical report) by the author, entitled "Free Energy Surprise", describing and containing plans for an experimental device based by the author on Tesla technology, which appear to produce a huge amount of "free" energy, using an iron pipe and high voltage transformer. These discoveries appear to utilize the same technology as that later known in Germany as "Vril", which Nikola Tesla had begun development of before 1894. This device is now the subject of a Japanese patent application by an American, which is the present subject of multi-billion dollar Japanese-American negotiations. The Japanese could have acquired this information for a mere $10.00, had they known that they could order it from me!

This review is from: Occult Ether Physics: Tesla's Hidden Space Propulsion System and the Conspiracy to Conceal It (2nd Revised Edition) (Paperback)
The most fascinating parts of this book was the information it presented on the government cover up of the UFO phenomenon. It wouldn't be the first time the government has covered up something from its citizens. Another fascinating thing was how far advanced Tesla's mind was over scientists of that time and many of our own time. He was an absolute genius that the government and the "money men" in America kept under wraps out of total fear. Fear of what changes his inventions could bring about in society.

This book is exceptional and has lit my fire to learn more about this incredible man. I remember the UFO craze of my youth and find plausible the explanations offered in this book. I even remember seeing something at my Uncle's Farm as a child (near Dover Air Force Base) that fits right in with the description of the "electropropulsion" power system.

This review is from: Occult Ether Physics: Tesla's Hidden Space Propulsion System and the Conspiracy to Conceal It (2nd Revised Edition) (Paperback)
I found this book a good fun read. It made me think more deeply about things. Who truly understands gravitational, electrostatic and magnetic forces? No one!!
We base science on theory supported by tests. Each theory supplanted by the next as new tests find exceptions. Technology is built successfully within the confines of the supported tests and progress proves nothing new. A man on the moon is Newtonian physics! The book is full of barely or unsupported sweeping statements and conclusions but I found it thought provoking.

I noticed one major gaff by the author. The claim that gravity should pull astronauts to the floor of an orbiting space station (p53). Clearly the balance between gravitational acceleration and angular acceleration is the same for the astonauts as it is for the space station and there is no relative acceleration between the two.

We have technology to take some advantage of universal forces but we seem far from understanding them and need to keep somewhat open minds. What are mass, space, time, energy, waves or particles? The closer we look the more mysteries appear. Much of what seems impossible today will be possible tomorrow.

The existence of some sort of ether seems almost certain as nothing is nothing! Using it to gain energy may be not far removed from sailing.

4.0 out of 5 stars Very Strange Book, January 4, 2008

(REAL NAME)   
Amazon Verified Purchase(What's this?)
This review is from: Occult Ether Physics: Tesla's Hidden Space Propulsion System and the Conspiracy to Conceal It (2nd Revised Edition) (Paperback)
I'm giving this book 4 stars mainly for the interesting information it provides about Nikola Tesla and Tesla's theories.

Telsa stands out as a very eccentric, enigmatic, and mysterious historical figure. There are many strange conspiracy theories associated with Tesla which are related to what some believe was his understanding of what Plato and the ancients called "the aether".

The main idea of the book is that there are alternative ways to generate unlimited, free energy by capturing the ambient energy which pervades the entire universe. This type of energy generation uses an ether based physics which is currently not part of mainstream physics and which is not taught in the colleges. Some people like Lyne believe this fact in itself is a government sponsored conspiracy to conceal this great secret from the masses.

Related to this ether physics are alternative theories about many things such as gravity, electricity, and matter.

There is a very strange side to this book.

The author claims to be able to see flying saucers almost at will and he believes they are always terrestrial in origin.

He states that the famous German rocket scientist Wernher von Braun had been in American before World War 2 and then returned to Nazi Germany and helped Hitler build flying saucers.

Also the Nazis had some sort of submarine that launched neutron bomb tipped rockets.

The author believes he is being monitored and harrassed by the CIA.

I do agree with him however that Tesla's papers were confiscated by the FBI almost immediately after his death.

It is possible that Edison and others conspired against Tesla because they were in a position to make tremendous fortunes using conventional power systems.

However this assumes that Tesla's power systems were safe which is a big question mark I think.

Remember that gigantic explosion that occurred in Siberia in 1908 that destroyed an entire forest ? Tesla believed he had caused it while testing his death ray device. This is interesting because to this day I don't think anyone really knows what caused this event.

Lyne throws in some philosophy and associates Einstein's followers with Plato and the aether guys with Aristotle. I'm not sure this analogy works that great. In fact some people believe that Plato's geometry and neo Platonism hold the keys to unlocking this alternative aether science.

I don't understand physics myself. From my perspective I believe in the aether but suspect Einstein may have been saying some of the same things in a different way.

I suspect what people like Tesla did is rediscover information that was well known in the very ancient past on Atlantis and ancient Egypt.

It is only relatively recently that people are beginning to fathom the true nature of the mysterious Great Pyramid in Egypt. This pyramid was a machine and it used this ether based physics in combination with crystals to generate tremendous amounts of energy. The pyramid itself functioned like a gigantic crystal when it was in working condition.

Anyway this is a relatively short book so it can be interesting.

4.0 out of 5 stars A Summary of His Bigger Book, October 25, 2007
By 
clicclic (Indianapolis, IN Estados Unitos) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Occult Ether Physics: Tesla's Hidden Space Propulsion System and the Conspiracy to Conceal It (2nd Revised Edition) (Paperback)
For those who are curious about his bigger book Pentagon Aliens this book sums up what he is saying in the big book, minus all the personal history/personal conspiracy stuff. I highly recommend the big book though if you are curious about how America operates. You will not see the waking world the same afterward. Even if you disagree with him 100%.

Regardless of your beliefs in Tesla's genius, this book will open up new areas of interest that hopefully your own curiosity will pursue. The section on water welders will probably put the mechanically challenged to sleep, but if you are the least bit interested in welding, this section will make you think. Water welding is different; I'm not saying it's more practical, just that the flame does have strange properties. It will melt carbon black, but you can pass your hand right through it. Yull Brown showed me what it does before he died (he smoked like a chimney). Further research would be welcome.

Lyne should be commended for writing these great books and being one of the only authors who says something so obvious you should be ashamed for not believing it: UFOs are real, and they're not from somewhere else. Thank you Bill!

4.0 out of 5 stars Practical, Simple, and it Delivers, January 17, 2003
By 
Wendy Vedder (Phoenixville, PA United States) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Occult Ether Physics: Tesla's Hidden Space Propulsion System and the Conspiracy to Conceal It (2nd Revised Edition) (Paperback)
First note: The missing star is soley because the writing style could be more professional; it does not reflect on the content, which is varied in scope, consistant in tone (unlike, say, Joseph Newman who has good points in his book on this subject that are completely inundated with some of the most childish attitudes esposed by a "writer"), and generous in delivery.

Second note: You gentlemen who wrote negative reviews... if you believe what you wrote, why on earth would you read past the first few pages? I smell an agenda, or at best, insincerity.

And as to the book, buy it, read it. It's worth the read if only to open your mind to the fact that someone might stand up and say what William says. I highly recommend for those who are interested in solid scientific support for W. Lyle's ideas, any of the books or the website of Tom Bearden. There's many others to be considered too; do a search, or follow links found in Bearden's website.

Having criticized Lyle's writing style, I would have to add that I love his offhand and occasional flippant style, and I quote, "Ha! These facts on hydrogen show that E equals MUCH MORE THAN MC2." ...a conclusion I reached independently 20 years ago, along with many of his pronouncements. This does, admittedly, bias my review; though in defense, I tend to enjoy less than 10% of fringe scietific books, correct or not.

Overall William sounds like an ideal person to chat with over a few beers. So William, if you read this please note that you have free beer and a guest room if you happen by Pennsylvania : )

5.0 out of 5 stars Excellent reading!, November 3, 2003
By A Customer
This review is from: Occult Ether Physics: Tesla's Hidden Space Propulsion System and the Conspiracy to Conceal It (2nd Revised Edition) (Paperback)
I have read every popular book on Tesla and have his lab and Colorado experiments books. He was truely one of the great minds of all time. I really enjoyed this book and can highly recommend it.

Having read the TOP Four books in the UFO/Alien/ Government Coverup Genre; My FAVORITE is 'Alien Rapture' by Brad Steiger (Great fiction-soon to be a movie); and Alien Agenda by the best selling author of 'Crossfire' Jim Marrs (Best reference on UFOlogy); and Unconventional Flying Objects (NASA UFO Investigator for 30 years) by the scientist Dr. Paul Hill, and the 12th Planet by Sitchin.

If you read this excellent book and the others, you will know that they are indeed true. Two well respected American Astronauts have come forward to proclaim they had seen evidence of the Roswell UFO crash and stated they know the cover-up is real. Many books have been written about the Catholic church's cover-up of ancient manuscripts. Tesla's missing papers is no conspiracy. You be the judge.

5.0 out of 5 stars At the heart of the Big Cover Up in so many ways., May 2, 2008
By 
This review is from: Occult Ether Physics: Tesla's Hidden Space Propulsion System and the Conspiracy to Conceal It (2nd Revised Edition) (Paperback)
I share this authors view that at least since the 1930s, the vast majority of so-called "UFOs" that have been seen have been piloted and built by Earth-bound human beings. American and German forces dominated the skies pre/post WW2, but the Russians, British, and Chinese are no doubt involved in more recent times. And it really did come to a very crucial crossroads in the life of primarily one man: Nicola Tesla. If Tesla's ideas and inventions would have been adopted by the Western World back in the late 1800s, then the oil & gas cartels, medical monopoly, utility extortions, international bankers, and many governments would not have been able to control [...] us like they currently do on a daily basis. This book does a great job in documenting the science behind it all and the cover-up, and the abuse the author has suffered to get the info out. Well done Bill!

***** Just another one of my reviews that was heavily edited by Amazon one day without notice or explanation. In addition to actually deleting 40 reviews entirely back a few years ago. How and why was this done?
