Arthur Firstenberg’s The Invisible Rainbow : A Brief Review

Authors: Edward J Steele

Arthur Firstenberg has written an important book (Firstenberg 2020). He is both a scientist, a medical professional and science writer/journalist with an eye to deep history and much knowledge. It is well written and clear, but uneven in parts, particularly absence of a sensible discussion of Hoyle-Wickramasinghe’s Panspermia-Cosmic Biology - the author’s conclusions on the origins of influenza pandemics since the1880s (from 1889 in particular) suffer from not considering all the extant evidence for Panspermia. The book is in two parts over 565 pages, rich in detailed referencing and notes which begins on page 393. This is a valuable resource.
