Politics of the Imagination The Life, Work and Ideas of Charles Fort

Politics of the Imagination is an account of the life and work of Charles Fort (1874a__1932). Born in Albany, New York, Fort spent almost his entire life searching through periodicals in the New York Public Library and the British Museum, compiling evidence to show that science was a mere facade. In a series of books-The Book of the Damned, New Lands, Lo!, and Wild Talents-Fort argued that science was a new form of social control whose object was to conceal the fantastical nature of the universe by editing out paradoxes, miracles, and paranormal events. Politics has a foreword by John Keel, whose book The Mothman Prophecies is now a major motion picture starring Richard Gere.Bennett, Colin is the author of 'Politics of the Imagination The Life, Work and Ideas of Charles Fort' with ISBN 9781900486200 and ISBN 1900486202.
