Product Description

Review

If what we read in this enthralling book is true, and I am afraid it is, the whole future of mankind could be at stake. --'Prediction'

The fruits of this research are laid out for us in a clear, logical manner, which adds credence to their findings and leads us from scepticism. --'Foresight'


Product Description

Did a top-secret US Navy experiment in 1943 really succeed in making newly built destroyer invisible? Or even, according to some accounts, disappear altogether from its berth in Philadelphia and reappear minutes later in Norfolk, Virginia? If it was so successful, why was the project abandoned and hushed up? Delving into secret files and interviewing witnesses, Berlitz and Moore have uncovered a fantastic tale or horrific side-effects on crew members, strange disappearances and unexplained deaths, combined with amazing evidence that the experiment actually happened. If true, it opens up possibilities that few would dare to contemplate.

4.0 out of 5 stars Very Convincing, 10 Jun 2003
By Mr. D. J. Walford (Lancashire, England) - See all my reviews
(REAL NAME)   
I was sceptical. Now I am not !

It took me about 2 days to read Charles Berlitz's book and it was two days well spent. Berlitz gives and interesting and not completely biased account of the Philadelphia Experiment. Berlitz uses very interesting data and evidence that is quite hard to deny and prove inconclusive.

Whilst I am not completely convinced that the sailors of DE 173 did actually suffer the effects that they did, it is more than obvious that something extremely sinister and amazing did happen in the Philadelphia Naval Yard in 1943.

There is a lot of information about Einstein's Unified Field Theory which helps to understand th myth of the Philadelphia Experiment. Einstein tried to destroy the theory papers because he feared what man would do with it.

We are only human, there is a whole universe of science that we cannot even begin to imagine or understand. We have messed with things that we cannot fathom. Lets just hope that we do the sensible thing and leave it alone.

3.0 out of 5 stars Interesting Reading, 22 Jul 2002
By Mystacy (In a galaxy, far, far away) - See all my reviews
This review is from: The Philadelphia Experiment (Paperback)
Is it all true ? Did they really make a ship invisible ?
Or was it all a miserable failure? or even a totally made up story? - You decide for yourself. This book does have many interesting points in it, and covers many peoples accounts of the actual event, though how much of it is true, and how much is purely exageration is anyones guess. Something to read while on the train to work, or while sitting on toilet.

5.0 out of 5 stars A well-balanced analysis of the Philadelphia Experiment, 9 May 2002
By A Customer
Too many people associate the events of the Philadelphia Experiment with the movie of the same name and as such creates an unbelievable element to an otherwise interesting story.

This book does well in providing the evidence for and against the events from everything to eyewitness accounts, navy records, Einstein's involvement and a crucial background into Carlos Allende (a key witness in the whole affair).

But what the book also does well is present the evidence in such a way as to allow the readers to come to their own conclusions without bias.

Did the experiment really take place? Read this book and decide for yourself.
