Product Description

A BREAKTHROUGH IN THE SCIENTIFIC STUDY OF ASTROLOGY: ASTROLOGY OFF THE BEATEN TRACK bridges the deep divide between astrology and modern science. It represents a major breakthrough and an exceptional achievement, as this book is a synthesis of the only rigorous scientific study of astrology conducted by a high profile scientist who spent 40 years of her life investigating astrology. After finding fault with today's scientists, who with contempt and prejudice have refused to put astrology to the test, Dr. Suzel Fuzeau-Braesch decided to conduct her own investigation to either confirm or discredit astrology. After studying the work of ancient astrologers and contemporary researchers, as well as modern statisticians and biologists, she undertook an original research program that has extended the boundaries of our understanding of astrology and science. Most intriguingly, Fuzeau-Braesch examined the characteristics of purebred dogs and cloned cows - and, to the dismay of skeptics, found that some astrological tools and concepts can be confirmed by hard science. She discovered that beyond the longstanding errors, blind spots, and confused thinking inherent in most astrological techniques lies a real and still unexplained interaction between personality and planets. Throughout her personal and professional journeys, Fuzeau-Braesch has charted a path for those who find value in interdisciplinary studies that are based on true science, rather than personal or professional biases or magical thinking. Her wide ranging work is a thoughtful step toward creating a new kind of scientific thinking, one that will appeal to readers with a profound curiosity about the mysteries of our universe.

5.0 out of 5 stars More Evidence that Astrology Works!, June 1, 2009

By	Bob Marks (New York City) - See all my reviews

Until now, the only scientific evidence that astrology works has been the research of Michel Gaquelin. What the author of this book does is take Gaquelin's work one step further. She did a statistical study of dogs! Breeders recorded the birth time of puppies and then noted their personality traits. Over 500 puppies were studied during a five year period by 12 different breeders. Surprise!(but not to astrologers). The extraverted dogs had a prominent Sun or Jupiter. Then to make sure that heredity and DNA had nothing to do with it, she did a study of cloned cows. The sample size was only 30 cows, so she couldn't use statistical tests, but she did get similar results with this test. There are other tests as well. It's a short book (172 pages) and easy to read. Every astrologer should read this book. Then they will have a response whenever a skeptic says there is no scientific evidence for astrology.
