Stephen Hawking On Trial: Confronting the Big Bang
The genius of the wee Doctor behind the electronic voice on trial?
Stephen Hawking's influence has been significant, so why put his new theory on trial? Because the public has a right to examine his Grand Design theory of the universe.
Bestselling author Pierre St. Clair quotes the analyses of 64 renowned physicists. Each in-depth analysis reveals inconsistencies with Hawking’s Grand Design explanation: • Hypotheses should be supported by data before being promoted as relevant theory • The three questions that are never asked but deserve answers • What we factually know, but more importantly, what we have failed to understand about the universe
Evaluating a theory is the foundation of the scientific method. All research must stand up to exacting scrutiny. Evidence must be beyond a reasonable doubt – the rationale jurors and logical people use to settle an issue.
This book uncovers a critical situation in today's astrophysics
“Theoretical physics is at a crossroads right now…In a sense we’ve entered a very deep crisis.†Dr. Neil Turok – Director of the Perimeter Institute for Theoretical Physics
Cosmology doesn’t thrive on uncertainty. Does Hawking's Grand Design eliminate uncertainty? Impartial investigators can legitimately challenge: “Let’s have a look at the evidence.â€
"I would rather have questions that can't be answered than answers that can't be questioned." Dr. Richard Feynman – eminent physicist known for his quantum electrodynamics work, the parton model of particle physics, and the physics of the superfluidity of supercooled liquid helium.
Gravity is the most common force in nature
Stephen Hawking On Trial challenges physicists who misapply gravitation to support and promote unproven hypotheses as genuine theory. This is unjustifiable because unproven hyptheses are simply ideas, hopes, and aspirations.
NASA physicists admit that dark matter and dark energy are unknown factors which together comprise 96% of the universe. Physicists readily admit they only understand 4% of the universe. Yet Professor Hawking declares on a national TV broadcast, “The scientific account is complete." The scientific account of the cosmos is complete when we only understand 4% of the universe?
Stephen Hawking portrays his Grand Design theory of the universe as scientific; that it is supported by evidence. However, the evidence he provides is mostly clouds of caveats and probabilities - none of which are supported by empirical data. Because most physicists agree that our present understanding of the laws of physics are far from settled, we have legitimate cause for Hawking's Grand Design theory to stand trial.
“As a scientist and as an educator, I like the idea that we believe things because there’s evidence.†Dr. Richard Dawkins – Oxford University Professor & Bestselling Author
"Stephen Hawking On Trial is compelling reading for anyone with an interest in physics and cosmology. It may challenge your beliefs, or maybe not, but it's a fascinating read in either case." J. Chambers – Amazon Top 10 Reviewer
Currently there are 1 star trolls who are insulting the author personally. Of course, an ad hominem attack means they've already lost credibility. It would be far better for them to point out what they think is unsound to demonstrate their own understanding. Because the logic documented in this book comes from today's leading physicists, it's clear the trolls have not read this book. Therefore, they're claiming renowned scientists don't understand physics.
