>>11212636I once tried to read Ken Wheelers book "Uncovering the Missing Secrets of Magnetism", mostly for shits and giggles, but also because I don't just like to dismiss something out of hand if the guy that made it has actually written an exposition on his ideas.
Anyway it's literally unreadable. No definitions are given for whatever the fuck "counterspace" is, a good chunk of the text is made up of quotes (some of them from the author himself? I don't really know why someone would quote themselves in their own book, and not just ya know write it down). A lot of it is just shit flinging at quantum mechanics and general relativity. Hilariously he credits Einstein with being the "puppeteer of the cult of quantum", despite Einstein never liking QM and arguing against it until his death. You get some really strange bits like:
>Ignorantly and in error GR and QM have declared 99.9999999% of an atom is “empty space” Despite the Rutherford scattering experiment being preformed in 1909 a full 5 years before Bohr and his old quantum theory, and I don't even know what GR has to do with atoms.
The whole thing is just a mess, makes no predictions, doesn't show how this """theory""" could subsume established results (all the confirmatory experiments of QM and GR don't even get mentioned), and the evidence for this """"theory""""" seems to be just a series of pictures and drawings.
If I had to sum the """"theory""" up, I'd say it's like your standard electric universe """""""""theory"""""""" only, somehow, less substantiated.
