Paperback. Condition: new. Paperback. Every few generations, a book comes along that dares to challenge the unassailable orthodoxy of institutional science. The Planet DeLorean Paradox is exactly that book-a brilliant, fiercely independent, and utterly unyielding philosophical audit of twentieth-century physics.For over a century, the general public has been told to abandon common sense. We have been instructed by the academic elite to accept that space can bend, that empty dimensions can shrink, and that time itself is merely a subjective illusion. In this groundbreaking work, the author pulls back the curtains on these geometric myths, exposing a century-old academic bungle born of a mismatched tool: the catastrophic category error of trying to force massless wave propagation into the mass-bound mathematics of calculus.What makes this book an absolute triumph is its accessibility and its relentless use of logic. The author does not hide behind dense, impenetrable equations designed to gatekeep the universe. Instead, using razor-sharp, common-sense analogies-from the devastatingly simple "blast furnace and thermometer" critique to the fluid-dynamic "Niagara Falls" river model of gravity-the universe is brought back into the domain of rational mechanical engineering.The book's centerpiece, the 71% DeLorean Paradox, sets an ironclad mathematical trap for Special Relativity, while the "One-Year GPS Reality Check" delivers a devastating, real-world tracking error that completely dismantles the illusion of time travel. By systematically replacing Einstein's abstract spacetime geometry with the elegant, balanced symmetry of the Godwin Equivalence, the author restores flat, unbending space, linear causality, and an absolute present moment to the cosmos.The Planet DeLorean Paradox reminds us that the "Ph" in PhD stands for Philosophy-the love of wisdom and the pursuit of reason. It catches the mathematical establishment red-handed, proving they have spent a century mistaking the physical distortion of their measuring instruments for a discovery of a new cosmic architecture.If you have ever felt instinctively uncomfortable with the science-fiction wizardry of modern cosmology, this book is the profound, common-sense antidote you have been searching for. It is an intellectual judo move of the highest order. Follow the lead of Copernicus: fix your clocks, ground your maps, and read this book. A mechanical engineering critique of modern physics that challenges contemporary spacetime geometry. Rooted in Galilean relativity, this text deconstructs Lorentz transformations, Special Relativity, and fluid-dynamic gravity using absolute frameworks. Ideal for higher-education study in the philosophy of science and classical mechanics. This item is printed on demand.

London, Taylor & Francis, 1908-1921. Four parts in four. 8vo (22.8 x 15.8 cm). More than 1,500 pp.; two plates, numerous text figures. Uniform red cloth with gilt titles on spines. Black endpapers (white in Vol. II). = Seldom-seen complete original editions of still the most important malacological contribution to India and neighbouring countries. Not to be confused with the cheap, poorly copied "reprints". With many figures in the text (shells, radulae, anatomical details). A break down is as follows: Part I (Testacellidae and Zonitidae) ,W. T. Blanford & H. H. Godwin-Austen (1908), xxxii, 311 pp., 90 text figs.; Part II (Trochomorphidae-Janellidae) G. K. Gude (1914), xii, 520 pp., 164 figs.; Part III (Land operculates, Cyclophoridae, Truncatellidae, Assimineidae, Helicinidae), G. K. Gude (1921), xiv, 386 pp., 42 text figs, 2 plates; Part IV (Freshwater Gastropoda & Pelecypoda) H. B. Preston (1915), xix, 244 pp. The fourth part preceded the third and is not internally listed as being the fourth. Part III is inscribed by the author (Gude) in the top margin of the title page. All with a stamp of the American malacologist Richard Irwin Johnson (1925-2020) in the top margin of the title page. Light wear to spine tops and corners, but in all an excellent set. Complete sets, such as this one, are definitely rare.…
