In William Carpenter's 'One Hundred Proofs That the Earth Is Not a Globe,' the author provides a thorough examination of various arguments and evidence to challenge the prevailing belief in the spherical shape of the Earth. Carpenter meticulously presents a series of compelling proofs, ranging from observations of ship disappearances at sea to the lack of curvature in long-distance surveys. Written in a straightforward and persuasive style, the book draws upon scientific principles and empirical evidence to support its claims, inviting readers to reconsider their understanding of the Earth's shape. Set within the context of the 19th-century flat Earth theory resurgence, Carpenter's work stands out as a bold and thought-provoking contribution to the ongoing debate over the shape of the Earth. William Carpenter's background as a self-taught scientist and advocate for a flat Earth perspective undoubtedly influenced his decision to write a comprehensive refutation of the globe model. I highly recommend 'One Hundred Proofs That the Earth Is Not a Globe' to readers interested in alternative scientific theories and those seeking to challenge conventional wisdom with critical thinking and empirical evidence.
