About this listen

From the Ether to the Quantum Field is an essay in which I retrace the scientific development of the notion of the ether, as it dominated 19th century science, to the notion of the quantum field that is the final answer of modern science to the cosmic energy field as well as the human biofield that various researchers have detected and described, and that they all termed differently. Because of the terminological confusion, it was not obvious that all those researchers, from Carl Jung to Harold Saxton Burr, were actually talking about one and the same thing.

Pseudoscientific garbage

I thought this would be a summary of the development of Physics from ether theory to the start of Quantum Mechanics. The Michelson-Morley experiment isn't mentioned once.

Instead the author launches into a diatribe against "scientific reductism" and "clockwork science". He then says such profoundly stupid things as, "Life and sexuality are vibrational phenomena" and delves into the standard mystical stupidness about "vibrational energy", healing powers, emotions, collective consciousness and the usual worthless, arbitrary, baseless nonsense. Without skipping a beat he transitions to discussing the healing powers of "spirit energy", "plant energy" and homeopathy. Soon after, as someone like this eventually must, he mentions "god" as a causal factor in the natural world.

Instead of discussing physicists and the development of the natural and life sciences, he leans heavily on Freud and brings up "ectoplasm".

Utter garbage.
