Not The Worse
I gave this a three star rating, a good book because it raised a lot of questions. But I also gave it three stars because it raised a lot of questions without going deep enough into them. This is my first book on this subject and I was left wondering about many of subjects that the book touched on but did not elaborate on. Including Nicoli Tesla, who was very involved with the government and experimentation at the time but only gets a few passing paragraphs with nothing in-depth on him.Much of the information in this book is fascinating. Time travel, government funded time machines, ...75 million computers in the 1950's, stolen gold bullion from Nazi germany, teleportation, time dimensions, amazing! The Gray invasion seemed a bit far-fetched (but who knows?). This book did intrigue me enough to start looking for others on these subjects.A good starting place but a little short at 137 pages. Give it a read and decide for yourself.

Disappointing Update Upon An Important Subject
Due to having watched a television program on Tesla, I wanted to see if there were any updates upon the subject of the Philadelphia Experiments of the 1940's-1980's. This book was written in 2013 and said it was the updated version.I have to say, I was disappointed. The original version I had read by Brad Steiger, was much better put together.It is truly worth searching for the older volume, even if it is out of date. This subject is very important

Great informative read
If you want to learn about experiments that our government does not offer, this is a great book. Love it!

DEFECTIVE!! DO NOT BUY
I am really angry I can 't find a way to contact Amazon about this messed up book! I had a version of this on my wish list, not sure which one. I don't have WiFi so I use it at the library. This came up on my Kindle so since I knew I wanted it I went ahead & got it w/o having read any reviews, never dreaming what a MESS it could be. Just like others here say, the font is SO SMALL I have to put magnifying glasses over my regular ones. I was able to make it a little darker but not much & I can only read it for a few mins till I can no longer see it. It is sideways on the Kindle & some (most) of the pgs overlap so what you read at the bottom of one is repeated on the next. Often there is just one paragraph per page. It is a nightmare & should be removed so no one else buys it. I often buy things when I see them on sale & it may be a good while before I get around to reading them but I will be checking right away from now on since I consider this to be extremely defective. I've had it too long to return it, according to their policy.. I am more than a little disappointed in Amazon for allowing this to continue to be available esp w/ no way to notify anyone. This should NOT be!!!

NOW YOU SEE EM, NOW YOU DONT
I HAVE READ JUST ABOUT EVERYTHING ON THE PHILADELPHIAI have always had this fascination with the Philadelphia Exp ever since I read a book years ago b the late Dr M K essup which touched on the subject.This book is the only one I know of in print that gives the details of Jessup's unfortunate passing -- which though reported as a suicide may not have been.Commander X with his militaryintelligence operative background comes closer to the truth that any other researcher on the Phila Exp.Jessup was found inside his carhis death caused bycarbon monoxide ... his car windows were rolled up and sealed. A doctor passing thru the park found his body and pronounced him dead on the spot. Shortly before his death he had told close friends that he had found out more details on the Phila Exp and planned to expose them to the world.The rest of the book deals with the case of Al Bielek who is the only known survivor. His story is fascinating and makes for good reading.The book reads like a good mystery novel.

Bad review on Kindle version not book itself as I can't even read the book.
I'm rating the Kindle version. Due to after downloading the book it orients sideways if you have your Kindle in the normal upright manner with the power button down(I'm on the original Kindle fire). So I think okay weird glitch and turn the kindle...well it orients the book sideways AGAIN to where you have the kindle. Its impossible to read, royally irritating me. Its the first time I've had a book on Kindle I couldn't read after paying for. There is definitely something to the 'try a sample' first, and I wish I had done that rather then waste my money. Down side, I really wanted to read this book it sounded really interesting. I may poke around and see if I can get it in an actual book. I poked around on the help section of Kindle Fire to see if I could just stop the Kindle from reorienting itself as you turn it but no such luck. So if you're a Kindle Fire user don't bother unless they fix the problem. *sighs* I might try it on my android phone and see what happens but I HATE reading on that small screen. So Amazon, how about you fix this up for us Kindle users, pretty please.

Poorly formatted
This is the poorest formatted book I have come across. Lines are half missing, pages have the top and bottom halves offset and to cap it all, when I change the orientation on my Kindle, the book appears upside down! Impossible to read and a waste of money. One star applied only because I couldn't give it zero.
