The Earth Not a Globe - Paperback

by Parallax (Author), George Davey (Author)

The Earth Not a Globe is a book written by an author known only as ""Parallax"" which argues against the idea that the Earth is a globe. The book was originally published in the late 19th century and has since become a classic in the Flat Earth movement.Parallax argues that the Earth is actually a flat disc, and presents a number of arguments to support this claim. These arguments include observations of the horizon, the behavior of water, and the lack of observable curvature in the Earth's surface.In addition to presenting arguments against the globe model, the book also delves into the history of the debate between flat Earth and globe Earth models. Parallax discusses the work of earlier proponents of the flat Earth theory, as well as the scientific and philosophical arguments that have been made in favor of a spherical Earth.Overall, The Earth Not a Globe is an important document in the history of the Flat Earth movement, and continues to be cited by modern-day Flat Earthers as evidence for their beliefs.1881.
