Expanding Earth Reference

I was quite amazed that this author wrote fairly about the expanding earth hypothesis. Normally authors treat it as a passing fancy and bad science. I bought the book specifically for insight into this area and there are a dozen or more pages dedicated to this area. Congrats to the author for an "unbiased" view of expanding earth which in my opinion is absolutely correct.

Review of Transaction

Book was received in good time and in excellent condition. I am still reading the book, so cannot comment on it. The transaction was all I could wish.
