Our Universe via Drexler Dark Matter: Drexler Dark Matter Created and Explains Dark Energy, Top-Down Cosmology, Inflation, Accelerating Cosmos, Stars, Galaxies, Cosmic Web [Paperback]

Jerome Drexler (Author)

Book Description

ISBN-10: 1599428873 | ISBN-13: 978-1599428871 | Publication Date: October 30, 2009

This book is different from all other modern cosmology books in several ways. It introduces a cosmologic universe, which is orderly, logical, and systematic. It teaches and explains by illustrating how a variety of cosmic mysteries have been solved. It raises the status of dark matter in the universe by illuminating its roles as the principal source of energy, the principal source of matter in the form of hydrogen and helium, and the principal source of cosmic relationships with the principal cosmic phenomena of the universe. This book simplifies the universe as Nicolaus Copernicus' book simplified the solar system in 1543. With more and more cosmic mysteries being discovered and the slow progress in solving them, cosmologists and astrophysicists must re-train themselves to understand and to utilize the postmodern unified astrophysical cosmology model and to maximize the knowledge derived from the astronomical data. These are the three principal objectives of this book.

1.0 out of 5 stars bad science, December 17, 2009

This review is from: Our Universe via Drexler Dark Matter: Drexler Dark Matter Created and Explains Dark Energy, Top-Down Cosmology, Inflation, Accelerating Cosmos, Stars, Galaxies, Cosmic Web (Paperback)

I have a physics Ph.D., and the ideas in this book are incompatible with the universe as we know it. Drexler ignores the consequences of his theories which conflict with astrophysical observation. His ideas have been discredited many times, but unfortunately that doesn't prevent him from publishing new books rehashing the some old material.

This review is from: Our Universe via Drexler Dark Matter: Drexler Dark Matter Created and Explains Dark Energy, Top-Down Cosmology, Inflation, Accelerating Cosmos, Stars, Galaxies, Cosmic Web (Paperback)

This fourth book by Jerome Drexler continues his theme of solving the mysteries of the cosmos through his unified astrological cosmology model. This latest title "Our Universe via Drexler Dark Matter" examines the tremendous amount of support his theory and models received from mid 2008 to mid 2009, highlights of which include:

Drexler's 2005 Top-Down theory of galaxy formation is now confirmed by four different research groups headed by scientists at Cardiff University, Hebrew University, University of Hawaii, and Liverpool John Moores University.

Drexler's dark matter model provides the only currently viable explanation for Harvard's discovery of the stunted mass-growth of Galaxy clusters.

Drexler's dark matter model accurately predicts the maximum size of 430 million light years for galaxy superclusters.

Drexler's dark matter model provides the most plausible explanation for how the first-generation stars ignited hydrogen fusion without the presence of molecular hydrogen or dust.

Drexler's 2006 prediction of soft X-ray emission from his dark matter model is now the goal of a joint Russian-German research group

While Drexler's theory is controversial, emerging data continues to support his model and he certainly appears to have solved many cosmological mysteries for which plausible explanations have eluded mainstream astrophysicists. Drexler's orderly logical and systematic universe deserves serious examination by the astrophysical establishment.

5.0 out of 5 stars Interesting Ideas from a Respected Scientist, June 25, 2010

By 

Margaret (United Kingdom) - See all my reviews

This review is from: Our Universe via Drexler Dark Matter: Drexler Dark Matter Created and Explains Dark Energy, Top-Down Cosmology, Inflation, Accelerating Cosmos, Stars, Galaxies, Cosmic Web (Paperback)

Regarding other reviews written on this book, and the author in particular, Dr. Drexler, is a highly regarded scientist-inventor in Silicon Valley, holding 76 US patents. After writing his first cosmology book he was named to a full Research Professorship at New Jersey Institute of Technology. From being named one of two Fusion Scientists of the Year in 1995, to inventing the digital optical disk data storage system, to being considered the discoverer of relativistic-proton dark matter, Drexler is clearly an innovative and respected thinker. Whether or not one agrees with Drexler's theories, it's just pure hubris to believe that the universe as we know it today is the final answer.
