The Orgone Accumulator Handbook: Wilhelm Reich's Life-Energy Discoveries and Healing Tools for the 21st Century, With Construction Plans
The Third and Most Recent Edition of
The Orgone Accumulator Handbook
Continuing now with presentations and history of my major publications.
The first edition of the Orgone Accumulator Handbook was published back in 1986, before the era of internet or even email. I was then working as instructor at the University of Miami, teaching courses on physical geography and climatology, with joint appointment at the Miami-Dade Community College (MDCC), Environmental Center. My courses on renewable energy systems, also presented at other universities in prior years, in part led to creation of the MDCC "Sun-Science Day" program for local elementary schools. There, I'd show and tell about solar energy and wind-power, with others presenting on South Florida native wildlife, showing off lizards, bunny rabbits and raccoons to show the kids. So my "students" then ranged from around 10 years old to 60+, as I drove daily from one venue to another.
It was fun, interesting and paid the bills, but my deeper interests in experimental orgonomy, dating back to the late 1970s at the University of Kansas, were a primary interest. Orgonomic science was too controversial for most universities, and so while doing my other university work, I began offering private seminars, which attracted interested physicians and other professionals, as well as numerous students. A primary focus at that time was Wilhlem Reich's orgone accumulator (ORAC). I had built several of them by that time, with various research papers on the subject in the Journal of Orgonomy. These included research reports on my early experiments boosting the growth of plants and seedlings, as well as alterations in the properties of orgone-charged water -- such as suppressing the rate of water evaporation. All those experiments were significant controlled studies, producing positive results favoring Reich. I presented some of this work at scientific conferences, stimulating more interest as well as a few malicious attacks. By that time I had a steady stream of correspondence with interested professionals and others, some from overseas.
Numerous questions were asked, often repeating. I directed many to the Wilhelm Reich Museum Bookstore, which sold photocopies of Reich's booklet The Orgone Energy Accumulator: Its Scientific and Medical Use. While that work had many excellent details, the photocopy reproductions at that time were not so good, and the booklet didn't provide clear instructions on how to build them. Questions on fine details of ORAC construction continued to land in my mailbox and telephone answer machine. I then wrote up a basic set of instructions and guidelines for use, in a 40-page high-quality but simple photocopy booklet, made on folded-over letter-sized paper, saddle-stitched and with a blue card-stock cover. It had many line-drawings and other images that photocopied well. Over the ensuing several years, a few hundred copies were eventually sold or given away, sent out by mails. Public interest in my work on the orgone accumulator continued thereon.
Departing from Miami, I taught briefly at the University of Northern Iowa, physical geography courses mostly, Earth and Atmospheric Science, before deciding it was time to depart from the academic world. Controversy surrounding my orgonomic work was attracting much positive interest from students, physicians and scientists world-wide, but within the American universities, it became a point of serious alarm. I also landed in the cross-hairs of the "skeptic clubs" who specialize in slander, defamation and dirty-tricks. I then decided to take a risk, to bail out of the academic "rat race" of "two steps forward, one step back", and form my own research institute and laboratory.
About this same time, starting in 1989 when I moved to California, I produced a second high quality paperback edition of the ORAC Handbook, titled The Orgone Accumulator Handbook: Construction Plans, Experimental Use, and Protection Against Toxic Energy. It was written and typeset on a Mac Plus computer using PageMaker 4, printed out on a laser printer, and then sent to a printing company to run off 1000 copies. Two close friends taught me the joys and perils of desk-top publishing, and floated a loan for the printing. The new second edition was around 160 pages covering far more material than the first edition, including additional photos, diagrams and added information overall, including discussion of the best materials to use in ORAC construction. That second edition also introduced the problem of electromagnetic fields (EMF) as a contaminant of orgone accumulator functions, something Reich first noted with respect to fluorescent lamps in his laboratory. He eventually had them removed. At that time before internet, EMF problems were restricted to power-line fields, transformers in things like electric clock-radios, leaky microwave ovens, and a few AM/FM broadcast towers.
The 1989 second edition of the ORAC Handbook had a full color image of the blue glowing Apollo Astronaut on the cover, and appears to have been the first book to put that image on the cover. Life Magazine had used it as a cover image back in 1968, right after the Apollo 12 moon-landing, capturing my great interest. That image seemed to disappear thereafter, however, and often was shown only in black-and-white versions, as if the blue color was something "sinister" needing deletion. Years later, I wrote a separate scientific analysis of that blue-glowing astronaut image, given how it was chronically being dismissed as due to camera smudges or lunar dust: "The Blue-Glowing Astronauts: Solar Glare? Lunar Dust? Water Vapor? Camera Smudges? Or the RF/Electrically-Excited Human Orgone (Life) Energy Field?" That document is still posted to my internet site:
That 1989 second edition of the Handbook, now out of print, is still found in used bookstores. Over the subsequent 20 years, it sold around 10,000 copies, with additional translations into German, Portuguese, French and Polish. Those translated editions together sold more than the English one, around 40,000 copies over the same 20 years, much to my surprise, tapping into a great interest in Reich within Europe. I was then invited to give seminars and lectures around the world, at private institutes, to medical groups, and at a few universities. That edition remained in print until around 2010, when the current third edition was published: The Orgone Accumulator Handbook: Wilhelm Reich's Life-Energy Discoveries and Healing Tools for the 21st Century, with Construction Plans. A photo of the cover of this third 2010 edition, with an improved image of the same blue-glowing astronaut, is reproduced above.
That third edition was expanded to over 250 pages, with a more detailed overview of clinical and experimental evidence from different physicians who treated patients with the ORAC, and by scientists at universities running different biological experiments on humans, plants, lab mice. Many physics experiments were also covered, such as the thermal anomaly and electrostatic discharge experiments which Reich originally developed. A new chapter was added on "Living Water", and a new Appendix article I published in a science journal was included, "A Dynamic and Substantive Cosmological Ether". The discussions on toxic EMF, radio- and microwave frequencies was also updated, to include the growing problems of WiFi, cell phones and towers, and 5G. The third edition is divided into three major sections, with the following chapters:

About the Author
This third edition is currently-available, sold internationally by various internet booksellers, with new translations into German, Spanish, Italian and Greek. The English and translated editions are also sold through our own publishing house and bookstore, Natural Energy Works, where it can be purchased on-line within the USA and Internationally:
Most people reading this will already know about the ORAC Handbook, but maybe not about the most recent third edition. I recommend it as a considerable improvement over the earlier editions. There also are no time-wasting discussions about "orgonite" and other claim-hoax "orgon thingys" which litter the internet, and so badly distract from Reich's substantial discoveries. And that is true for the foreign translations as well. All of the third edition versions, English and the translations, are professionally produced, high quality perfectbound paperbacks with color covers, more comprehensive and better than the earlier translations.
This is a great gift for youth, and for your friends and as a treat for yourself.
Thanks for reading, and please share around.

The Dynamic Ether of Cosmic Space:
Correcting a Major Error in Modern Science
In between all the unpleasant news we all have been exposed to, and as I also frequently post and discuss on my social media, we must also maintain a focus upon that which expands us, keeps us emotionally and psychologically fit, even if it doesn't stray far from controversy. So, I'll be informing all on my social media, both newbies and old friends, about my books, which everyone interested in new energy science, and Wilhlem Reich's discoveries should know about, and be uplifted and stimulated in the reading.
Firstly lets look at my latest, The Dynamic Ether of Cosmic Space: Correcting a Major Error in Modern Science.
http://www.naturalenergyworks.net
This one addresses a major fraud perpetrated in mainstream science decades ago, but which today is ignorantly repeated, like parrots, in every textbook. Namely, the cosmic ether of space WAS experimentally detected, and no "null" or "zero" result was ever reported by Michelson-Morley (MM) in their original publications. Many others replicated that same experiment using far better and more sensitive interferometer devices than MM used, such as Dayton Miller, and in other team efforts by Morley-Miller, Michelson-Pease-Pearson and Michelson-Gale. Others have done so in more recent times, such as Yuri Galaev, Reginald Cahill and Hector Munera. ALL have been ignored, censored or simply erased by both mainstream "science" journals, and by their academic colleagues. Sound familiar to modern politics? (My own research findings and publications have suffered a similar fate.)
So what are the reasons for this chronic and rather "official" mis-reporting and obfuscation? The primary reason is, that none of the modern theories of astrophysics remains standing when confronted by a medium in cosmic space which affects light-speed with a variation aligned in a specific cosmic-sidereal direction. And there are many entire academic departments, top "expert" bibliographies, and more fundamentally research grant cash-cows at stake.
I've studied this material since my undergraduate university days, back in the early 1970s, and later raised the issues as a doctoral candidate and later PhD professor in the universities - often triggering explosive reactions from professors who worshiped Einstein's theory of relativity, or the idea of a cosmic "Big Bang" start of the universe. Or they embraced "back holes" as a real thing. What I show in this book, is how all those theores, including much of "quantum entanglement" theory (often called quantum magic), are little more than metaphysical suppositions. The evidence for them frequently, if not always, finds a simpler explanation along the lines of a cosmic dynamic and gravitational ether. None remain standing as viable theories in the face of a cosmic ether, particularly one with dynamic and motional-material properties, as I argue. Even so, I do not question any aspects of empirical astronomical discovery, only the metaphysical speculative astrophysical theories which try to explain what astronomers have observed. It is a question of facts, versus "theories about facts".
Better yet, I show the close relationship of cosmic ether to the cosmic superimposition theory of Wilhelm Reich, who argued that the cosmic ether had been "prematurely discarded". He didn't know about the abundant evidence for ether already obtained by top scientists in his own time, but which I gathered in this book. "There is no vacuum" Reich declared with great intuition and experimental proofs, and he was correct on that point, as well as in his discovery that the cosmic orgone energy, which he called the ether, was biologically active, playing a critical role in the formation and sustenance of life.
The ether-orgone is also reactive to water, as my own spectrographic research has shown. And I identified no less than 17 different independent scientific discoveries of cosmic sidereal vectors in space that closely align with the interferometer-determined cosmic motions of Earth in space. This is all laid out in graphs, charts, tables and figures, to make it comprehendible to the average person, with minimal maths.
I don't wish to give away all the content of this 389-page, richly illustrated book, and so invite you to buy a copy for your own educational reading, and also to purchase a copy for any student or open-minded person who holds interests in the sciences. It is a great gift for the holidays. We can ship this book, and my other titles, directly in the USA and internationally by our network of distributors. Easy payment by PayPal, with any credit card (you don't have to sign up with them). Come see the offerings at Natural Energy Works.
