Editorial Reviews

From Library Journal
Although a broad collection of intriguing energy technology research is described in this book, it is annoying to read. Not only does it lack footnotes or references for any technical details but the author consistently asserts that the researchers described have been treated inappropriately and meanspiritedly. For example, Nikola Tesla couldn't obtain adequate funding and so was frozen out of the energy field. John Keely received funding but was pressured for quick results, causing his ruination. One third of the book deals with individuals working on "free/space energy" or "zero-point energy"?the untapped energy that exists in space. The rest of the book deals with other technologies?cold fusion, hydrogen, water hammers, etc.?and the problems their advocates have encountered. While some of these technologies do show promise, the author feels they have all been deliberately suppressed?either by government, big business, or the media. She ignores the practicality question and simply concludes that conspiracy and/or persecution explain why more progress hasn't been made. Not an essential purchase.?Hilary Burton, Lawrence Livermore National Lab., Livermore, Cal.

5.0 out of 5 stars Informative, February 10, 2002
By Al (BC, Canada) - See all my reviews
Great book! I've researched "free energy" for more than 22 years myself and this was the 1st book I could give to friends to explain the whole scene to them. It gives the history, like Tesla, Moray, Reich, Schauberger, and it shows you how big (and growing fast) the New Energy field is today. It also gives enough information for the researcher to direct his or her interests to the inventor that they wish to focus and further their attention on. This would save the researcher alot of time, as Jeane Manning has done all of the foot work for you in this book.

3.0 out of 5 stars Journalistically exciting, but scientifically inept., May 18, 1998
By A Customer
Manning's book is an assiduous review of exciting new energy technology. Unfortunately, Manning is a sociologist, not a hard scientist, and she is way out of her element trying to comprehend and explain the work of new energy inventors. As a result, the book leaves far more unanswered than answered. She needed a physicist as a co-author. Still, worth reading to grasp the scope and promise of new energy technologies; but the scientifically knowledgeable reader will want far more than it delivers.

3.0 out of 5 stars Interesting, found a lot of energy research with potential., October 21, 1997
The author has searched out a lot of obscure persons doing research which, if successful could turn the golbal economy upside down, and change life on earth. She does not, however, follow up on the latest status of the inventions, or follow the logical next question about why none of these devices are ever tested or shown publicly. Although interesting, the book is very light on technology details and investigative initiative.
