The Scientific Worldview

Beyond Newton and Einstein

De: Glenn Borchardt

The Scientific Worldview‚ presents a balanced perspective that has profound implications for the social as well as the physical sciences. Borchardt outlines the philosophical alternatives and selects those necessary for consistent thinking.

The central concept of his philosophical system is univironmental determinism‚ a new, universal, mechanism of evolution founded on the simple proposition that whatever happens to a portion of the Infinite Universe is a result of the infinite variety of matter in motion within and without.

Borchardt criticizes the 20th century "scientific world view," systems philosophy, for overemphasizing systems and neglecting environments. He argues that this biased outlook taints our most fundamental theories about the universe. For example, gravitation is currently viewed as the result of an "attraction" or "curved space-time" produced by the system itself. Cosmologists have become “cosmogonists,” surreptitiously assuming the universe is finite. According to Borchardt, the absurd Big Bang Theory is the logical culmination of systems philosophy. It must be rejected as anthropocentric, amounting to the “Last Creation Myth.”

The univironmental viewpoint yields equally intriguing analyses in personal and social philosophy. In addition to his views on human behavior, consciousness, epistemology, and ethics, Borchardt defends his belief that humanity will not cause its own extinction. He emphasizes the 1989 decrease in the rate of global population increase as having major importance for predicting the inevitable stabilization of population and the decline of rapid economic growth. In brief, The Scientific Worldview‚ provides the first outline of the philosophy that will develop during the last half of the Industrial-Social Revolution, with the Big Bang Theory being replaced with its only logical alternative: Infinite Universe Theory.

This new edition includes Borchardt’s Aether Deceleration Theory of Gravitation (ADT). He observes that, logically, the acceleration of gravitation must have an accelerator. Accumulating evidence suggests that is produced by ubiquitous but unseen local aether particles. After colliding with ordinary matter, these particles lose velocity and accumulate around the impacted matter as an aetherosphere filled with “Dark Matter.” ADT resolves the paradoxes and contradictions left behind by the young Einstein’s rejection of aether.

The new edition also includes: an expanded glossary, updated references and index, and a list of successful predictions such as those supported by recent photos from the Webb telescope.

Comments from readers of the first edition…

“After reading The Scientific Worldview," I have had to revise my list of my top-ten philosophers. And among those alive, Glenn Borchardt has rocketed himself up to become the absolute number one. So - Read the book. Buy it! It is worth it. It is outstanding.” Bent K. Nielsen, Denmark.

“I didn't read this as the next theory in science. It is THE philosophy for science for the 21st century.” David de Hilster, U.S.

“…this has to be one of the most important books I've ever read. I think the author has a very keen insight on how nature really works… His ideas are very easy to grasp… Highly ahead of its time…” Mitchel J. Haas, U.S.

“Dr. Borchardt's keen sense of reality and of logic lead…the reader to a deep understanding of the universe… He draws a clear line between things that are real and things we delude ourselves into believing are real.” Duncan Shaw, Canada

“If reading popular science books and articles on physics and cosmology leaves you thinking "where are the missing puzzle pieces"? . . . You should read Glenn Borchardt. …thought-provoking. Delightfully entertaining. No other science book ever put such a big smile on my face.” Rick Doogie, U.S.
