About the book: year / The tragedy of many talented individuals who try to rethink or even edit the official physical picture of the world is that they base their constructions not at all based on experimental realities. Talented loners read textbooks - naively believing that they contain facts. Not at all: the textbooks present ready-made interpretations of facts, adapted to the perception of the crowd. Moreover, these interpretations would look very strange in the light of the genuine experimental picture known to science. Therefore, the true experimental picture is deliberately distorted - the book provides a lot of evidence that the FACTS are partly suppressed and partly distorted. And for what? For the sake of making interpretations seem plausible - being in agreement with official theoretical doctrines. In words, learned men turn out beautifully: we are looking for, they say, truth, and the criterion of truth is practice. But in fact, their criterion of truth turns out to be accepted theoretical doctrines. For, if the facts do not fit into such a doctrine, then it is not the theory that is redrawn, but the facts. A false theory is confirmed by false practice. But the pride of scientists does not suffer. We, they say, have walked the right path, we are walking, and we will continue to walk! This is not just another “conspiracy theory.” It’s just that every scientist understands that if he “tramples against the flow,” he will risk his reputation, career, funding... The successes of modern technologies have almost nothing to do with physical theories. We used to be very familiar with the situation where it was sometimes possible to do something useful with buggy and faulty software. It turns out that physical theories can compete with the products of the cool guys from Redmond. For example, Einstein slowed down physics with his creations for exactly a hundred years. And the atomic bomb was made not thanks to the theory of relativity, but in spite of it. But the problem is not only with Einstein personally with the epigones, who, following the master, began vying to impose their far-fetched “axioms” and “postulates” on reality, “making” a “scientific reputation” and “specific money” on this. Everything is much more serious. Welcome to the real, that is, “digital” physical world!
