About this product
Product Information
Key Points · Foreword by well known media botanist David Bellamy · First book to explain Schauberger in contemporary, accessible language · Has dramatic implications for how we should work with nature, including startling solutions to our energy needs * includes dozens of photos, drawings and illustrations Austrian naturalist Viktor Schauberger was the pioneer of the study of subtle energies in nature. From his unusually detailed observations of the natural world, he pioneered a completely new understanding of how nature works. This book describes and explains Schauberger's insights in contemporary, accessible language. His remarkable discoveries - which address issues such as sick water, ailing forests, climate change and, above all, renewable energy - have dramatic implications for how we should work with nature and its resources. Alick Bartholomew read Geology and Geography at the University of Cambridge, followed by graduate studies at the University of Chicago. He has commissioned and published many books on Schauberger and has been working with Schauberger material for over twenty years. Reviews 'This is a timely book on a profound subject ... Hidden Nature reveals a timeless wisdom requiring urgent attention ... Water may seem to you so ordinary, but this book will totally transform your perception of it. After reading Hidden Nature you will know that it is the most precious substance on the Earth.' --- Satish Kumar, Editor, Resurgence magazine 'Schauberger was an untutored genius well ahead of his time. His remarkable insights and investigations into water and living energies challenge established scientific dogmas then and now. Alick Bartholomew has done an admirable job of making Schauberger's work accessible and relevant to our age without compromising its artistic integrity. Read it for pure inspiration and for concrete ideas on disciplines as diverse as bioenergetics, consciousness, earth science, hydrodynamics, thermodynamics, and many others yet to be named.' --- Dr Mae-Wan Ho, biologist, author, and editor of Science in Society

Reviews
'The book seeks to explain its concepts in simple language, assisted throughout by clear and well-annotated illustrations. thought-provoking.' - Light 'A comprehensive breakdown of Viktor Schauberger's stunning ideas and observations. Alick Bartholomew strips away the complexity of Callum Coats' book Living Energies, in order better to understand Schauberger's main themes. It will certainly transform your views on water. The graphics are the clearest I've seen in any book on Schauberger. I highly recommend it if you want to learn about Schauberger's natural science.' - Amazon UK reviewer 'As one reads this very accessible book, one is left with a growing sense that his system is so simple, so sensible and rooted in reality, that one wonders why on earth more people don't know about it.' - Star and Furrow 'With its readable text and informative illustrations, this is an essential primer.' - Scientific and Medical Network Review 'A spacious and well-presented book with plenty of diagrams. The concepts are explained well. Fascinating and thought-provoking.' - Reforesting Scotland 'The book's scope is very broad and it is intended to be more accessible to the lay reader than the technical publications on Schauberger... It has always puzzled me that Jack and Jill went 'up' the hill for their water. The 'anomaly point', central to Schauberger's understanding of how true springs form, might be a clue.... Schauberger's ideas, ideals even, resonate strongly with the modern debate about sustainability.' - New View 'This is a timely book on a profound subject ... Hidden Nature reveals a timeless wisdom requiring urgent attention ... Water may seem to you so ordinary, but this book will totally transform your perception of it. After reading Hidden Nature you will know that it is the most precious substance on the Earth.' - Satish Kumar, Editor, Resurgence magazine 'Alick Bartholomew tells how in 1950 Richard St Barbe Baker arranged for Schauberger's son, a trained physicist, to talk to a group of atomic physicists at Birmingham University. A few weeks later, Baker asked the scientists if they had held a postmortem on Schauberger's presentation. 'Yes indeed,' they admitted; they had decided that it was 'unchallengable'. 'Then what are you going to do about it?' asked Baker. Nothing, was their retort. Why not?' 'Because it would mean rewriting all the textbooks in the world.' That, in my view, is reason enough to read this book.' - Star and Furrow 'Alick Bartholomew provides a fitting first glimpse [of Schauberger's insights and inventions] with Hidden Nature. If you've had enough of the mechanistic, materialistic worldview and are looking for an alternative approach that's based on a real appreciation of Nature's workings, this is the book for you.' - Nexus Magazine 'Schauberger was an untutored genius well ahead of his time.

With its readable text and informative illustrations, this is an essential primer.' -- David Lorimer, Scientific and Medical Network Review, Spring 2004 'Hidden Nature gives a context for Schauberger's thinking and brings it into the framework of later understandings, such as Gaia theory and Lawrence Edwards' work. As one reads this very accessible book, one is left with a growing sense that his system is so simple, so sensible and rooted in reality, that one wonders why on earth more people don't know about it.' -- Jane Cobbald, Star and Furrow, Winter 2003 'This is a dangerous book. Within the first few pages, anti-gravity and free energy have been mentioned, challenging conventional science. The book is at its best on a practical level dealing with plants, soil and water ... Bartholomew often leaves out the more scientific approach of Callum Coates' Living Energies, which may suit some readers.' -- John Pasley, Permaculture, March 2004 'A spacious and well-presented book with plenty of diagrams. The concepts are explained well. Fascinating and thought-provoking.' -- Reforesting Scotland, Spring 2004 'The book's scope is very broad and it is intended to be more accessible to the lay reader than the technical publications on Schauberger.

The book is in perfect condition, brand new, and is exactly as described. This item is difficult to find here, and the seller priced it very reasonably. It shipped from the UK to Canada, and unfortunately took a little longer to arrive than the seller hoped, but it was shipped less than 24 hours after I purchased. When I contacted the seller, they were very responsive and helpful. I would not hesitate to purchase from this seller again. Definitely recommend!
