Book Cover & Preview Text
This is not the book I had intended to be my fifth published work. Rather, I had intended to do a book about an early 18th century craftsman / inventor named Johann Ernst Elias Bessler and the marvelous inventions he had created such as working perpetual motion wheels! However, the research I had been conducting into the internal mechanics of his wheels was not yet complete and ready for presentation and several years had already passed since my last work, The New Science of the UFO, had appeared. So, in order not to disappoint those who may have been following my writings over the years, I decided to produce the present volume. In this book the reader will find a somewhat unusual collection of what may be referred to as “New Age” writings on subjects that range from the strange powers of various animal species on and below our Earth’s surface to ghosts to religions to UFOs and on to the “big” picture when it comes to understanding the ultimate nature of the cosmos we inhabit. (There’s even a final chapter that presents a system for playing and, hopefully, winning state Lotto games! Its inclusion was a last minute decision for reasons that are given at its beginning.) Much of the material is somewhat old, but has been carefully rewritten, updated, and expanded. Some of it is new and should appeal to the more technically minded reader. My goal is to impress upon the general reader that current science is still a long way from being “complete” in any true sense of the term. It is, as it has always been, provisional in nature and subject to revision whenever new data from experiments and observations is available that contradicts previously accepted theories. Change, however, does not come easily to any human endeavor, especially science.

About the Book
Essays from the Edge of Science is author and researcher Kenneth W. Behrendt’s latest contribution to the literature of the New Age. It is an exciting and insightful analysis of various topics that takes the reader from the depths of our planet’s oceans to the farthest reaches of cosmic space and time while outlining what will most likely be accepted science by the end of this century. You’ll learn about the astonishing telepathic powers of the so-called lower animals. An entire chapter is devoted to the living subterrestrial creatures that inhabit the Earth’s crust and whose highly evolved paranormal powers are responsible for many of the events taking place in haunted houses. The soon coming elimination of fossil fuels and their replacement by free energy devices that use the power of permanent magnets is discussed. Even the nature of time as well as a means to “travel” through it is explored as the reader is taken on an imaginary ride aboard what could be the first truly functional time machine. In a highly controversial chapter, the author finally gives the real reason that our planet’s major governments dare not reveal what they know about the UFO phenomenon! All this, however, is only a small sample of what awaits one in this incredible work. This book is sure to fascinate the general reader who has always suspected that what we have been taught is real is, in fact, only a very small portion of a much larger and stranger reality. Now that rarely seen hidden reality is exposed so that it can finally be a subject for serious scientific inquiry.
