Does the giant Yeti roam the mountain ranges of Tibet? Does a
real-life Shangri-La lie waiting to be discovered in a Himalayan
valley? Do transmissions from lost civilizations beam messages of
salvation to humankind? What lost creatures lurk in the murky
depths of Scotland's brooding Loch Ness? And who - or what - is
responsible for the implacable monoliths which tower over Easter
Island? The obsession that so many now have with the uncanny and
unnatural is itself a mystery. It prompts serious questions which
could have remarkable answers. Drinking deep from the wells of
esoteric knowledge, Greg Reece undertakes a heroic quest for
solutions. Braving the darkest recesses of cult belief, he stalks
the twilight borderlands of contemporary culture, where, at the
outer edges of mainstream thought, things become downright freaky
and outlandish.Taking his life in both hands, the author explores a
subterranean cavern reputed to be the home of elusive blue-skinned
troglodytes; goes hiking in the backwoods for a glimpse of Bigfoot;
investigates the truth of Alternative Archaeology in search of
Atlantis; and tests for himself the time-travel and anti-gravity
theories of famed inventor Nikola Tesla. Unashamedly revelling in
the unexplained, "Weird Science and Bizarre Beliefs" is both a
penetrating analysis of the hidden underbelly of science,
pseudo-science and religion and an unforgettable journey into the
innermost depths of the fantastic and the peculiar.
