A New Concept of the Universe: A Brief Treatise on the Russell Cosmogony

The subject matter was a bit over my head, but was so interesting, I had to go forward even at times if it was at an extremely slow pace. Walter Russell was so ahead of his time. When you start to read, you would think it was written recently. He coined the phrase "NEW AGE" decades before it was a "catch phrase" Mr Russell was an artist in several medias, a skater, and scientist although he had to quit school at a very early age. He binds GOD to science which is seldom even heard of, but makes perfect sense. His ideas about helping others and positive brings about positive is remarkable. His wife Lao wrote several books as well, mostly about love, but not romance novels. His books are definitely worth reading. They will open your mind and take you way outside the box.

A New Concept of the Universe is very compact with ideas. This book could easily be converted to 3 books or more. One book for physics (optics), one book for chemisty and biology and one book for astronomy. It is a goldmine. I have poured over this book many times. It does take some effort to get accustomed to the language that Dr. Russell needs to use in order to explain his revolutionary model. One of Dr. Russell's core ideas is that "opposites do not attract - opposites repel". He says "like attracts like" and he explains this reasoning very thoroughly. It is very much worth the effort of study if you are interested in science. Once familiar with the language, the ideas become quite clear. It becomes easy to fit our current scientific understanding into this model and it streamlines the complexity of our current science. In my opinion, and I know I am not the only person who believes this, this book contains the science of the future and also the greatest hope for the future of our world. This contains the answer to sustainable, clean, inexpensive and inexhaustible energy. When the scientists and technologists begin to use these principles the world will have endless energy at their disposal. This includes all 3rd world countries and impoverished countries as well as the wealthy countries. Governments and environmental agencies should be investing in scientific research using this science model. It will also help astronomers and chemists immeasurably. Indirectly this book also explains global warming and our rapidly changing weather patterns, however this will not be clear to the layman without referencing Dr. Russell's other books. A good companion book to this one is Dr. Russell's "Secret of Light". Thank you for allowing me to review this wonderful book.
