Ancient History, Geomagnetism, Paleontology, Mythology, Astronomy, Geology, Physics, Evolution, Psychology, Archaeology, Catastrophism, Biblical Studies Despite the best efforts of scientists and historians, there is still much we do not know about the history of life, the Earth, its peoples and the Solar System and Universe they inhabit. Theories have been developed and researchers are working to refine them and fill in the details, but in many areas there is controversy. Are ancient myths works of fiction, or do they contain details of real historic events and events in the Earth's history? Have the Earth's features been developed gradually over millions of years purely by the processes we see today, or have catastrophic upheavals played a major part? Has the Solar System undergone upheavals during historic times and does electricity play a much bigger role in the cosmos than currently thought? Ancient Egyptian history has formed the basis for the chronologies of most ancient civilizations, but have the Egyptologists got it wrong? Have they falsely inflated it with 'ghost' centuries and rulers, generating corresponding distortions in all the surrounding areas? The Society for Interdisciplinary Studies (SIS) exists to encourage discussion of new and challenging ideas in these areas. What is The Society for Interdisciplinary Studies? The Society for Interdisciplinary Studies is a UK-based society with worldwide membership. It is a non-profit making organization, registered as an educational charity under the UK Charities Act. It was formed in 1974 in response to a growing interest in the works of modern catastrophists who have stimulated controversy in the fields of cosmology, geology and ancient history. SIS membership brings together people from a wide variety of backgrounds and beliefs. The SIS has provided a forum for independent and critical assessment of the works of modern catastrophists such as Dr Immanuel Velikovsky, Dr. Victor Clube and Dr Bill Napier. Topics covered include: The role of electromagnetism in cosmology. Modern scientific dating methods. Space probe findings about comets. Venus, Jupiter and other planets. The interpretation of myths and legends. In ancient history there have been proposals from a variety of authors, ranging from modest adjustments to extreme reductions which would radically re-date almost the whole of ancient Near Eastern history. Membership rates, including magazine subscription and delivery: Each year, SIS members receive 2 issues of the Society's journal, Chronology & Catastrophism review, 2 issues of the SIS Internet Digest, and have the opportunity to buy a wide range of material through the Society's Book Service.
