Author of Paradise Is Now: Decrypting the Secret Cosmology of Isaac Newton's Principia

Isaac Newton's “Nova Cubi Hæbræi Tabella"

Isaac Newton was an intensely secretive man who composed his most famous work—his Philosophiae Naturalis Principia Mathematica (Mathematical Principles of Natural Philosophy), or Principia, of 1687—in a secret code that has remained uncracked to this day.
Paradise Is Now cracks Newton's secret code.

"An intellectual's Da Vinci Code"
With a Foreword by Ravi Ravindra, Professor Emeritus of Physics, of Philosophy, and of Religion at Dalhousie University, and former member of the Institute for Advanced Studies in Princeton

In 1946, the economist John Maynard Keynes, a collector of some of Newton's private manuscripts, wrote:

"Newton was not the first of the age of reason. He was the last of the magicians....

Why do I call him a magician? Because he looked on the whole universe and all that is in it as a riddle, as a secret which could be read by applying pure thought to certain evidence, certain mystic clues which God had laid about the world to allow a sort of philosopher's treasure hunt to the esoteric brotherhood. He believed that these clues were to be found partly in the evidence of the heavens and in the constitution of elements... but also partly in certain papers and traditions handed down by the brethren in an unbroken chain back to the original cryptic revelation in Babylonia. He regarded the universe as a cryptogram set by the Almighty—just as he himself wrapt the discovery of the calculus in a cryptogram when he communicated with Leibniz. By pure thought, by concentration of mind, the riddle, he believed, would be revealed to the initiate."

Paradise Is Now shows that Newton succeeded in decrypting the Universe's secrets—and it reveals to us what he found.

Praise for Paradise Is Now

John C. Mather, astrophysicist, cosmologist, and winner of the 2006 Nobel Prize in Physics wrote, "I’m impressed that you have so much evidence" regarding the decrypting of Newton's secret code. He continued: "the evidence is all there in writing, we just need to understand Newton’s point of view."

Paradise Is Now is "a very impressive and deeply researched work."

George F.R. Ellis, Emeritus Distinguished Professor of Mathematics at the University of Cape Town, co-author (with Stephen Hawking) of The Large Scale Structure of Space-Time, "one of the world's leading theorists in cosmology", and winner of the 2004 Templeton Prize

Paradise Is Now is a "wonderful book." It is "spiritually compelling", and was read "with admiration."

Paul Mendes-Flohr, Professor Emeritus of Modern Jewish History and Thought at the University of Chicago Divinity School, and "a leading scholar of modern Jewish thought"

Gerald Holton, the Mallinckrodt Professor of Physics and Professor of the History of Science, Emeritus at Harvard, wrote that he was "amazed" at the book's "unusual offering of several millennia of science" and called it "ambitious." He also wrote that "the fundamental concept in your work has analogous elements in the work of others", and he cited his own work and the work of Einstein.

Paradise Is Now "is a massive and scholarly work, and most impressive. It was fascinating to read. It will surprise many, but is solidly argued, and sheds new light on Newton. I hope it will be widely read.”

Keith Ward, Regius Professor Emeritus of Divinity at the University of Oxford
