"I
enjoyed reading your books, especially the way that you write.
Intriguing! It has taken nearly forty years to establish the
idea that the Earth system is self regulating and during that
time conventional science was sure that the Earth was not
self-regulating. So, like me, you will have to be patient."

"A
jewel of the human intellect! Stephen Hawking move over there's
a new theoretical genius. This book, both volumes, is so all
encompassing in its scope it leaves one breathless. To take so
many different sciences and weave them into a new fabric of
reality is astonishing. There are answers to so many questions
in science today that have left scientists baffled. It covers
the earth sciences, astronomy, deep ecology, physics,
environmental issues, evolution, extinction, tektites, unusual
meteorites, life's ability to transcend entropy, and so much
more. Of particular interest is a new model of the Earth that
resolves the shortcomings of present theories. New theories on
black holes, galaxies, the planets, comets, and so on are
included. The dinosaurs really became extinct due to ionizing
radiation, not the proposed impact. Planets and galaxies
actually eject objects. This review could not possibly do
justice to this masterpiece. Moreover, it is uniquely written to
be accessible to both the scientifically minded and the
layperson who is not so scientifically inclined. Buy it or at
least read it, get your library to put in their collection. Five
stars!" (from Amazon.com)

"Awesome
and enlightening! I have read both volumes of The Vital
Vastness. They both were powerful and inspiring. And both were
written creatively and with authority. Just about every topic
imaginable was covered. I was surprised at what I discovered and
became convinced quickly as I read. Written for both the average
reader and scientist was interesting and added credibility.
While the book's size appears someone lengthy, it was just right
when considering you can skip over scientific terminology which
was italicized and placed in parentheses. And considering that
the book brings forth a truly complete explanation for the
workings of the cosmos, and reviews each of the modern theories
and how they fit in or don't fit in, the size was appropriate. I
cannot wait for the forthcoming title by this author, In Defense
of Nature... Let me know when it becomes available. I highly
recommend this author's titles, and would like to review his
third book. The two I read were pure genius. I feel enlightened.
Five stars!"

"I
want to compliment the author.. for providing these theories for
consideration. It is so seldom that someone with the inclination
to try and bring to light and explain incongruities in modern
theory has the time and resources to do the research and produce
quality text."

"This
is an incredibly interesting new theory. Your theory deserves to
be widely circulated and studied by the scientific community. It
is the first really 'new look' at the many questions surrounding
our existing models of Earth that I am aware of. It raises many
issues that demand response from the earth science field."

read your material with avid interest. When I read your theory,
a lot of things fell into place. Your theory explains a lot. In
fact, so much, that I've run out of research ideas."

"I...believe
in your theories...Love is very much a part of all this we are
going through...it's not easy to pin down since it's not
tangible/visible...but that in itself makes it all more real! I
believe there is a lot of love in what you believe and
write."
