#SAMUEL ROWBOTHAM ZETETIC ASTRONOMY PDF#
This book has 352 pages in the PDF version, and was originally published in 1881. Needless to say, to make his system work, the author had to throw out a great deal of science. Eventually, in 1881, the author greatly expanded and published this book, in part to meet demands of public and scientific scrutiny. The Zetetic Sun, moon, planets and stars are all only a few hundred miles above the surface of the earth. Rowbotham was already a known inventor and author at the time, over time the theories of Zetetic Astronomy - in which the Earth is portrayed as flat - became popular. Rowbotham believed that the earth is flat that the continents float on an ocean which has a layer of fire under it that the lands we know are surrounded by an infinite wilderness of ice and snow, beyond the Antarctic ocean, bordered by an immense circular ice-cliff. In this book he lays out his world system. Samuel Birley Rowbotham, under the pseudonym 'Parallax', lectured for two decades up and down Britain promoting his unique flat earth theory.

I would have preferred if the book persisted like the first 3 chapters, to mainly provide sufficient evidence that prove the earth is flat in different fields with reference and evidence to support them. The book is also explanations and theories attempted to be demonstrated by very complicated graphs.Īnother very important thing is that there is no reference to most of the experiments that prove the earth is a plane, no evidence to support them what so ever, this makes the book completely useless. but graphs which makes him sound like if he is baffling, bbb to the center to hhh to aaaa and something like that which makes it impossible to understand what he is saying. The author tries to explain different issues like eclipse, sun, magnitude of the earth etc. It’s not that the book is bad, it’s that the way it’s written that makes it bad. The first 3 chapters of the book were great, but the rest was just pain in the head, it literally gave me a headache, I have my AC on but my head is burning, and I’m being serious. By positioning them at equal heights aimed at each other successively he proved over and over the Earth to be perfectly flat for miles without a single inch of curvature. Rowbotham conducted several experiments using telescopes, spirit levels, and theodolites, special precision instruments used for measuring angles in horizontal or vertical planes. Rowbotham’s findings, beginning with his 1864 book, “Earth Not a Globe! An Experimental Inquiry into the True Figure of the Earth: Proving it a Plane, Without Axial or Orbital Motion and the Only Material World in the Universe,” caused quite a stir in the scientific community and thanks to three decades of his efforts, the shape of the Earth became a hot topic of debate around the turn of the 19th century. Samuel Rowbotham, a flat Earth renaissance began sweeping the world. CONTENTS Preface To The Second Edition Chapter 1. This edition was created and published by Global Grey ©GlobalGrey 2018. Thanks to the experiments, books, and lectures of an English inventor and author named Dr. Zetetic Astronomy, Earth Not a Globe By Parallax (Samuel Birley Rowbotham). This is the book that started the 19th century resurgence of the Flat Earth movement. framing a theory and trying to find data to fit the theory, which seems to be how the heliocentric point of view came into fashion. I do appreciate Rowbotham's method of inquiry, which is to assume nothing and start with what can be observed. And, believe it or not, some of them are quite persuasive.Īt this point, I haven't made up my mind either way I have many questions for both points of view (heliocentric vs.
But being open minded and interested in just about everything, I wanted to hear the arguments for a flat earth.
Obviously, those living in 1865 would have had less information to use to come to their conclusions. Of the two books I purchased, I decided to read this one first since it was published in 1865. So I read the website and then I bought a couple of books to pursue the subject further. This was not something I had ever considered or had reason to consider before. The website he linked to had a collection of various arguments that the earth is flat. As mais variadas edições, novas, semi-novas e usadas pelo melhor preço.
