This book is a must for you as a science fiction reader.Or do you really want to continue reading about inertia-free acceleration and journeys at many times the speed of light, while at the same time every physicist wants to tell you with a mild smile that such a space flight is out of the question - now and forever.Wouldn't it be nice to know that the physicist would only have the right to smile if his 2,300-year-old assumption were correct that any change is based on motion, on the continuous shifting of place with time - just as Einstein still wanted to believe.Wouldn't it be fine to know that the assumption of motion is an inadmissibly simplistic view of things, about which you are allowed to smile mildly, because it elevates man's perceptions to a truth that thus only exists in the physicist's phantasy - and not otherwise.Wouldn't it be good to know that Galileo was already able to show mankind that free fall is an acceleration which, on principle, knows no increase in potential energy and which must therefore remain free of inertia even when reaching extreme speeds - which means that interstellar space travel is not a phantasy.If you have nodded your head even once while reading my presentation, then you should give my book a chance. It will make you smile when physicists tell you that science fiction literature is pure phantasy - it is rather the other way round.
