Author Defies the Norm with His Views on Globally Accepted Truths
TIMMINS, Ontario, April 16, 2014 /PRNewswire/ -- In the upcoming
London Book Fair, author Allan Manchester's interestingly informative
book, How to Stop a Hurricane and Some Other Things You Might Like to
Know is sure to intrigue visiting readers. He hopes to shed light on
some accepted trivia and facts. Now, readers get to understand that
there's more to these pieces of scientific and historical information
that everyone has long memorized and accepted as truths.
The author's unique insights are applied to some of society's most
pernicious problems. Conventional wisdom is firmly dismissed, dropping
models of Einstein, Newton, Moses, and Adams, to present some simple
and logical perceptions. He presents a monumental shift in common
world view, changing many of the foundations of the intellectual
world.
Some of the points he cited are:
-- Money is the most useless thing in society as people cannot eat it,
wear it, live in it or consume it in any way.
-- Every sect in the world looks down on the rest of mankind as being
inferior.
-- Newton's understanding of gravity was deficient, and so all the
claims built upon it are theoretical nonsense and intellectual con.
This book is available online and can be purchased at www.lulu.com,

About the Author Allan Ronald Manchester, born in 1955, graduated a
two-year Business Administration course in Ottawa. Shortly after his
graduation, he failed his first business venture in Ontario. A year
later, he attended Eastern Pentecostal Bible College, graduating with
a theological degree; but he felt that he could no longer support the
congregation. Leaving the church, he opened a variety store in the
town where he left the rectory. He then worked as an educational clerk
in Pittsburgh Correctional Institution; but did not thrive in the
position. After a year, he went trucking, driving a transport all
over North America for four years, until an injury induced seizure
resulted in a license suspension. Much of the philosophy presented in
this book was developed over the long, quiet miles of those four
years.
Over the years, he has tried to get a few patents off the ground, but
was unable to get the backing he needed. The philosophy presented in
this book has been presented to physics and economics students and
professors, without making a dent in their world view.
