Note:  The following reviews were submitted to the author of The Vital Vastness, Richard Pasichnyk, at his web site, www.livingcosmos.com. 

"Awesome and enlightening! I have read both volumes of The Vital Vastness. They both were powerful and inspiring. And both were written creatively and with authority. Just about every topic imaginable was covered. I was surprised at what I discovered and became convinced quickly as I read. Written for both the average reader and scientist was interesting and added credibility. While the book's size appears someone lengthy, it was just right when considering you can skip over scientific terminology which was italicized and placed in parentheses. And considering that the book brings forth a truly complete explanation for the workings of the cosmos, and reviews each of the modern theories and how they fit in or don't fit in, the size was appropriate. I cannot wait for the forthcoming title by this author, In Defense of Nature... Let me know when it becomes available. I highly recommend this author's titles, and would like to review his third book. The two I read were pure genius. I feel enlightened. Five stars!"
Robert Johnson, Chandler, Arizona

"I want to compliment the author.. for providing these theories for consideration. It is so seldom that someone with the inclination to try and bring to light and explain incongruities in modern theory has the time and resources to do the research and produce quality text."

"This is an incredibly interesting new theory. Your theory deserves to be widely circulated and studied by the scientific community. It is the first really 'new look' at the many questions surrounding our existing models of Earth that I am aware of. It raises many issues that demand response from the earth science field."

"I...believe in your theories...Love is very much a part of all this we are going through...it's not easy to pin down since it's not tangible/visible...but that in itself makes it all more real! I believe there is a lot of love in what you believe and write."
