This important 795 page book covers primarily the last 25 years showing that the many later critics of Immanuel Velikovsky behaved exactly as did their earlier predecessors. For the first time in one place, all the major figures in the Affair have been thoroughly analysed. The book presents:

• A full expose of the early part of the Velikovsky Affair by Prof. Irving Wolfe.
• The important AAAS Symposium on Velikovsky and the Cornell University book, Scientists Confront Velikovsky, examined in clear readable terms. What is left of the critics Peter J. Huber, J. Derral Mulholland, Carl Sagan and Norman W. Storer is anything but pretty. Prof Lynn E. Rose dissects the AAAS symposium from a 20 years perspective and shows the vapid, dishonest behavior of the participants and the behindthescenes gamesmanship of Owen Gingerich of Harvard University.
• A nearly 150 page analysis of Henry H. Bauer's Beyond Velikovsky by Charles Ginenthal and Irving Wolfe. This material in itself is so damaging to Bauer's criticism that by themselves these two chapters are worth the value of the book.
• A look at The Skeptical Inquirer and its critics. Their misrepresentations are so blatantly obvious and unvarnished that they speak volumes about the dirty tricks presented in that journal to destroy Velikovsky. James E. Oberg, Kendrick Frazier et.al., Henrietta Lo, Clark R. Chapman and David Morrison are fully taken to task.
• Dwardu Cardona, David Talbott, and Ev Cochrane's expose of the work of Bob Forrest's Velikovsky's Sources to show his mythic evidence does not survive the light of examination. Issac Asimov also comes in for a scathing exposure by Ginenthal and Wolfe that leaves no stone unturned.
• A thorough rebuttal of Stephen Jay Gould's criticism of Velikovsky showing that when he comes to Velikovsky he advances only double standards and hypocricy to support his claims.
• A summary of the Affair by Irving Wolfe, and the historical, social, psychological catastrophic significance of it.
• An Addenda by Rose presenting a discussion of his personal contacts with the Velikovskys and then turns to analyse ancient calendars that indicate the 12th Egyptian dynasty must be moved closer to the present by over 1000 years.
• An Appendix of over 100 pages in which Rose presents for the first time, the full, verbatim discussion carried on between Velikovsky and his critics at the AAAS symposium. This is of major historical importance since it exists in print nowhere else.
