Selected Topics by Individual Presentation: A Lecture Series on Nothing
Spaceland Publications is honored to present STIP-2: A Lecture Series on Nothing. This has been transcribed directly from the tape recorded lectures of the live presentation of STIP-2 by Professor Galambos. Spaceland Publications—following the example of Galambos’ literary executor, William W. Martin—has edited out nothing other than, “the professor’s slips of tongue, false starts, rare moments of trying to unscramble confusions of thought, dates, numbers, etc.” This is in keeping with the procedure William W. Martin used in editing Galambos’ fifteen volume magnum opus, Sic Itur Ad Astra. The result? Vintage Galambos! No dull exposition of scientific facts here. Rather, an animated, excited, often humorous and always articulate teaching of the most profound concepts of physics, biology and volitional science by a professor whose love of the subject matter was palpable. It is the hope that the reader will feel more like he is listening to a lecture than reading a book, that professor Galambos is talking to him, not writing to him.
Why, you may ask, are we publishing STIP-2 first? Why not STIP-1? And what has happened to the other nineteen STIP courses the professor delivered? Tragically the answer to those questions requires an understanding of the criminal (as defined by AJG himself) actions and negligent lack of actions on the part of the so-called “trustees” of Galambos’ natural estate. For this documentation I refer you to Bill Cobb’s thoroughly documented books. For now, let it suffice to say that Professor Galambos gave over one hundred seventeen courses including the twenty STIP courses. Spaceland Publications has reason to believe that many, probably most, of these courses have been destroyed. Spaceland Publications looks upon this as THE major crime against civilization. The publication of this short but significant course is the beginning of rectifying these injustices, out of gratitude to Professor Galambos
STIP-2 was originally scheduled as a one-day open-ended course for 1976 September 11. After delivering two sessions that day the professor realized he had only scratched the surface of the significance of “nothing.” Therefore, one year to the day, on September 11, 1977, Sunday, the professor delivered a three-session extension to the course, making it five sessions in all and renamed the whole as “A Lecture Series on Nothing.”
