This is an article about a new book by Larry Arnold, perhaps the
world's leading authority on spontaneous hauman combustion. This is a
subject that is not often talked about. Why do you think that is?
ABLAZE! by Larry E. Arnold
"There's one mystery I'm asked about more than any other-- spontaneous
human combustion," says Arthur C. Clarke, author of 2001, on his 1994
TV program Mysterious Universe. "Some cases seem to defy explanation,
and leave me with a creepy and very unscientific feeling. If there's
anything more to SHC, I simply don't want to know."
Thus has spontaneous human combustion (SHC) remained the hidden malady
for more than 100 years, and a hotly debated one for centuries more.
No longer. In this amazing book are hundreds of unbelievable examples
of The Fire Within, culled from long-forgotten obscure medical
journals and never-before-published interviews with witnesses to the
impossible.
What is the evidence? How do firemen react to mounds of human ashes
found inside unburned buildings, even inside unscorched clothing?
Are these merely "smoking mishaps" as coroners claim, or deaths far
less easily explained away? Why do facts crying out for answers meet
with suppression of evidence; denial; debunking?
If no other explanation can resolve these human fireballs,
then SHC must be added to the growing catalog of
mystery ailments that plague mankind.
Thus more questions are raised. Can the human body cremate itself
biochemically? Or by its own electrical energy within? Is there a
new form of energy (energies) being revealed that may herald limitless
non-polluting power? What is the role of geography, quantum physics,
and--indeed--human consciousness in outbreaks of SHC?
Can animals and households also spontaneously burst into flames...
while firemen stand by helpless to explain or quell the baffling
blazes before them? And: Could you protect yourself against this
most mysterious of all the forms of human transition?
"Here is a book on instantaneous human combustion," says Graham
Walker, Ph.D., Department of Engineering, Calgary University. "I
recommend it."
