"The Static Universe" is an anthem for the growing number of skywatchers who are heartily sick and tired of being led up the garden path. Is the Universe expanding?

==Abstract==
 
 
 
This paper is a precis of my new book by the same title.  The Static Universe is a collection of empirical arguments against the notion that the Universe is systematically and holistically expanding. It is pitched at the informed reader with some elementary understanding of physical science and astronomy, although it is couched in conversational English and eschews mathematics. Readers who digest the popular works of Patrick Moore, Brian Greene, Stephen Hawking, and Martin Rees should have no trouble following the arguments. Included is a glossary of terms. It does, however, also accommodate the serious scholar with technical footnotes and an extensive schedule of academic references. There are 9 chapters, and several addenda.

"The Static Universe" is an anthem for the growing number of skywatchers who are heartily sick and tired of being led up the garden path. Is the Universe expanding? Maverick astrophysicist Hilton Ratcliffe, author of the highly controversial book "The Virtue of Heresy", argues that it is not, and if he's right, an entire body of science is brought to its knees. The impact of the ensuing catastrophe will be devastating, and the cost to those who doggedly defend the prevailing paradigm is inestimable. It certainly runs to billions of dollars. In a world where self-interest rules, the author of this shocking expos is literally putting himself on the line. Big Brother does not want you to read this!
