Book Description

For many years Richard Hoagland alone hypothesized that sentient beings spent time on Mars millions of years ago assembling behemoth structures whose ruins are still seen today. Here Hoagland redefines the solar system as a different place than NASA has presented. The book includes a new preface covering the Mars Global Surveyor photos and reactions of NASA.

Read this book with a healthy dose of skeptisim!.......2007-10-04

Read this book with a very healthy level of skeptisim!

The claims put forth in this work has been debunked by many high level science experts, such as Phil Plait ( Author of Bad Astronomy ) and Seth Shostak ( SETI Institute) - among others.

But don't take my word for it. Go do the research yourself!

In the words of the late/great Carl Sagan, "Extraordinary claims require extraordinary proof!"

Far out? Yes. But..........2007-09-24

Funny thing, the internet. You start out going one place and end up somewhere else altogether. While looking for information about Jack Parsons (founder of Jet Propulsion Laboratories) I eventually, somehow, ended up here at The Monuments of Mars. That's okay. I happen to have a copy of Monuments (4th edition) so I decided I might as well post a review. Then I read about half of the 70-something reviews already posted and wondered what else was there to be said?

Clearly, Hoagland's massive work engenders its own weight in controversy. But, having followed Hoagland's work for many years, I'm inclined to think perhaps that is one of Hoagland's greatest contributions and perhaps one of the most valuable aspects of what he does.

Hoagland's motto (a rephrased version of the Star Trek motto) is "To boldly go where someone has gone before." Obviously that's a reference to his whole underlying assumption that some intelligent species had been on Mars and on our Moon centuries ago. But I'm inclined to think perhaps the original Star Trek motto more accurately fits Hoagland himself: "To boldly go where no one has gone before." (Yes, I know, I know. That's not the ORIGINAL original. It's the "other" original.) Hoagland has consistently proposed ideas that were/are pretty far out. But he also provides the data to back up his ideas. True, not everyone supports his claims or the data he uses to back up those claims but, man, he sure does make you think. And not just think in conventional terms but think outside the box. After all, isn't that where some of the greatest discoveries are made? Einstein anyone? The Wright Brothers? Tesla? Who am I missing?

The Face on Mars. The pyramids on Mars. The strange objects on the Moon. Are these all really artificial constructions created by alien beings from another planet? Another dimension? I don't know. But having read Monuments and after listening to Hoagland's arguments I can say I'm open to the possibility that he may be right.

And let us not overlook the fact that Hoagland isn't just some "nobody" who somehow sneaked his way into the limelight. Back in the 1960s he was the NBC consultant for the moon landing of Surveyor 1. A couple years later he became the director of a major science museum and planetarium in Connecticut. Then he became a science advisor to Walter Cronkite during the Apollo missions. I could go on but I think the point is made.

I would recommend The Monuments of Mars if for no other reason than to give your critical thinking skills a workout and decide for yourself whether or not someone has gone there before. Are Hoagland's ideas far out? Yes. But... isn't that where we want to go?

absolutly amazing.......2007-09-22

I only recently learned of Richard C. Hoagland when I stumbled upon his website. I was intrigued by some of the things written on there so I decided to buy this book.

At first I was cautious at believing what he had to say, but everything he says is very-well documented and not only that, it is backed by many different scientists from many different fields.
While he is very eager to claim life on Mars, he does indeed back all of his claims with evidence(all backed by legitmate scientists) and outright says when he is speculating.

Those that say this is psuedo-science, obviously do not beleive in any of this to begin with, meaning they could not possibly give a fair review. In other words, they had probably made up their mind before reading the book. Also, the argument that you can not go by fuzzy pictures, does not work, as updated pictures from the more recent Mars mission continues to prove him right.

One thing I did not like was the fact that there were not more recent pictures and more pictures overall.

Overall this was a very good book and if you are open minded you should find this book very persuading, otherwise don't bother reading it.

Tabloid Science.......2007-04-13

This book was a disappointment. I have never dreaded reading such a large book as this one. Not that I don't agree that there appears to be Martian Architecture on Mars or I wouldn't have spent so much $ or time on this rediculous book. Hoagland writes a 700 page tabloid book on Mars. Incredible! Too much "old" Hoagland history and too many disjointed pictures/images. He spends way too much time on the rediculous "face". One photo or the first Viking photo makes it look like a face and THAT IS IT. Period!!!! He must have at least fifty pages just on the face alone! Reading this book was more like experiencing a freak show at the county fair. I recommend that you not waste your time on this book. The guy is definitely correct that there appears to be "life on Mars" but take my word for it, you'd be better off buying a science fiction book.....it would be more convincing. I haven't read it but a better book would be The Martian Enigmas: A Closer Look: The Face, Pyramids, and Other Unusual Objects on Mars Second Edition by Mark J. Carlotto and it is not so long......Scotty beam this guy up to the Enterprise and KEEP HIM THERE! I want my money back!

Good Explanation of One Point of View.......2007-02-28

Mr. Hoadland certainly has better eyes than I do. I look at the pictures he has included in this book and read his descriptions and just don't see what he sees. Yes, I see some vague resemblence to a face in the original pictures taken by the Viking orbiter in 1976. Then I look at the newer pictures taken at higher resolution and different lighting and if I wasn't deliberately looking for a face I'd just see some mountains.

Now once you have a fact, then it isn't a big step to go find other thing with which we humans can identify, e.g. a city, a fortress, a pyramid. It's not unlike laying on the grass in the summer time with a pretty girl and seeing figures in the clouds. (I don't know why the girl has to be pretty, but it fits with the story.)

He also discusses the meteorites from Mars, but in much less detail. Presumably this was just coming to light as this book was going to press and will be treated more completely in the next edition.

Mr. Hoagland is clearly out on the edge of what scientists are believing about Mars. There is some evidence that yes there is or may have been some kind of life on mars. But there is also some evidence that contradicts the other findings. The majority of scientists do not believe that conclusive evidence has been found.

Just finished the book........2001-08-23

It's suppose to be a PICTURE book, but most of the pictures are badly printed in B/W except for couple others in the middle of the book. The author's description of these pictures are very dull also; I couldn't understand what was going on on most of pictures.

I bought the book to prepare for my Chemistry Class next year. Since it was a "PICTURE" book for "Everybody", I thought I would have no trouble reading, but no, I couldn't understand most of the parts, and was totally confused with all the weird vocabulary and hundreds of names. I was disappointed.

The good side: Though I didn't appreciate the book that much, it did have some nice tales that amazed me. And though half knowing, half guessing, I think I did gain a sort of historic understanding of the world from Alchemy to Chemistry, for that I have to say thank You. So overall, it's a badly illustrated book hard for beginners to understand, nevertheless, it's better than nothing.

Briefing about the book.......2001-07-24

This is a light-hearted picture book about chemistry with an emphasis on the science in Western World before the 20th century As the author states in the preface:

"I anticipate justified criticism of this idiosyncratic tour due to the numerous sites not visited. I freely admit that there are countless other paths through chemical history, and I apologize in advance for discoveries omitted or given short shrift. However, I want this book to be useful and to fulfill this mission it approach will not help to achieve this goal. Although I have attempted to apologize for the weak coverage given to early science in Chinese, Indian, African, Moslem, and other cultures. This is really more an artifact of the availability of printed books rather than intent.

"Although our tour is meant to be both light-hearted and light reading it tackles some of the important issues that are often too lightly or confusingly broached in introductory courses and are difficult to teach. We do, however, try out hand at humor and some of the earthiness so evident in the Renaissance works of Chauvcer and Rabeliais. Why not include Van helmont's recipe for punishment of anonymous "slovens" who leave excrement at one's doorstep? By providing such vignettes, I hope to reengage chemists and other scientists in the history of our field, its manner of expressing and illustrating itself and its engagement with the wider culture. I hope to provide teachers in introductory chemistry courses with some guidance through difficult teaching areas and a few anecdotes to lighten the occasional slow lecture. And if a few students are caught snickering over a page of Rabelaisian chemical lore or some bad puns, would that be such a bad thing?"

The author also suggested further readings in his acknowledgments:

"The most authoritative is the inspirational four volume reference work, A History of Chemistry (McMillan, 1961-1964), by john R. Partington."
