Dr. G Dedrick Robinson’s New Book Looks at Global Warming and Climate Change from a Geological Perspective


Abbeville, South Carolina (PRWEB) January 25, 2012

Written from a geological perspective, Dr. Robinson’s book emphasizes key findings and conclusions from peer-reviewed science journals rather than attempting to smear the politics and motives of those with differing views. Its fourteen chapters use an easy-to-understand question and answer format to cover the entire climate-change-global-warming spectrum including the physics of the greenhouse effect, the carbon cycle and why the science of geology is key to understanding global warming. References and a short summary are provided at the end of each chapter and many graphs and charts are included. The book is about the science of global warming, not the politics or various policy directions the U.S. government might choose. It is not intended to lambaste any political party, branch of government, way of thinking or person. It presents the science in a straight forward manner in everyday language without uncalled for political bias. It is the authoritative, concise guide to the global warming controversy that has long been needed.

Dr. Craig D. Idso, founder and chairman of the board of the Center for the Study of Carbon Dioxide and Global Change, says the book ?…is a refreshing read on a topic of great societal importance…because the authors evaluate key predictions and controversies of the global warming debate using logic and science.?

Professor Robert M. Carter, Marine Geophysical Laboratory, James Cook University, Townsville, Queensland, Australia, says ?Writing in an easily accessible style for all readers, and using Socratic dialogue, Robinson leads us systematically through the simple science information that is needed to answer the question, ‘Are human carbon dioxide emissions causing dangerous global warming?’ And the more surprised you are that the answer to this question is ‘no,’ then the more you need to read this excellent book.?

G Dedrick Robinson Ph.D., author of nearly fifty science journal articles, is based in the Appalachian foothills region of South Carolina. He has closely followed the climate change debate during the course of his thirty-year career as a geology professor at James Madison University in Virginia.

Gene D. Robinson III Esquire has been practicing law in Virginia since 2007. A graduate of the University of Florida, Levin College of Law, he worked as an associate for a law firm in Fairfax, Virginia until 2009 when he established his own law practice.

The 2300 BC Event Explores How a Worldwide Catastrophe Wiped Out Major Civilizations and May Have Drastically Altered the Course of Human History

Philadelphia, PA (PRWEB) June 27, 2006

Important things happened at 2300 BC. All advanced cultures were terminated for hundreds of years, possibly changing the course of history. Religions were formed earthwide, essentially providing the preponderance of our known mythologies. The causal source was the Earth?s encounter with a dense meteoroid stream circling the Sun.

M. M. Mandelkehr?s three-volume series The 2300 BC Event takes a new look at an old puzzle: what happened at this date to cause the advanced societies on the Earth to simultaneously collapse? It had been a golden age of human development. Civilizations in Anatolia and Greece, through Egypt and the Middle East, and eastward to India and Central Asia were at their height. These were the first urban centers of the world, typified by multi-level administrations, standardized manufacturing, beautiful art and architecture, and supported by strong agriculture and far-reaching trade networks. The collapse of these civilizations due to earthquakes and climatic changes has been mirrored by similar interruptions on all continents, in the Arctic, and extending into the Pacific. The discontinuities have long puzzled archaeologists and historians.

Utilizing geophysical and astrophysical data, evidence from archaeological sites, and the historic record of the event as preserved in many of the world?s religious texts, mythologies, and ceremonies, Mandelkehr postulates that the causal source behind such widespread, rampant destruction may have been the Earth?s encounter with a particularly dense newly formed meteoroid stream circling the sun, with the climatic and geological transients being an unusual effect of this encounter

New religions and accompanying mythologies appeared at this time in all cultural regions describing bombardment and flooding from the skies ? particles and ice from the parent comet of the meteoroid stream. Strangely, the dominant aspect of the mythologies, however, is the observation and worship of a ring appearing to surround the Earth, oriented to the two Ursa (Bear) constellations. The encounter event continued to be commemorated earthwide at a specific time of year, with fire and death being its principal features.

M. M. Mandelkehr has a Bachelor?s and Master?s degree in Electrical Engineering as well as a second Master?s degree in Systems Engineering and Operations Research. He has directed advanced concept developments in ballistic missile defense, space surveillance, strategic and tactical command/control and underseas warfare. His training and inclination for diverse studies makes him well-suited for this multi-disciplined investigation. Portions of the book have appeared as separate papers in a British interdisciplinary journal.

?The great walled cities perished; nations fell,

Forests and mountains fed each other?s flames??
