The Big Bang Delusion Salomon Borensztejn French edition

The standard Big Bang model steams from Hubble's interpretation, in 1925-1930, of the redshift of distant galaxies as being caused by their recession and from the concept of the 'expansion of the Universe'. For nearly a century, the Big Bang model has ruled the roost, by default. Over the years, the model has become a dogma. Is this model doomed to failure? That is the claim made by a researcher, Salomon Borensztejn, in his book 'THE BIG BANG DELUSION'. For nearly 50 years, Borensztejn has been patiently accumulating arguments and above all facts that prove that the Big Bang model is wrong. The author proposes an alternative to the Big Bang model, 'the temporalistic model', which interprets redshifts as a quantum and temporal phenomenon and not a cosmological and spatial one, contrary to the reigning dogma. According to the temporalistic model, redshifts are caused by the asymmetry of time, in other words by the existence of a 'temporalistic' constant that he discovered and named To, whose value, established theoretically in 1962, is 4.5546 x 1017 seconds (14.43 billion years). In 1962, the author also established theoretically a value for the Hubble constant, Ho, of 67.71 km/s/Mpc. This value has very recently been corroborated by Australian researchers: ''The new measurement of the Hubble constant is 67.0 ± 3.2 km/s/Mpc. (i.e. within 1% of the temporalistic value of Ho) - Florian Beutler et al. ICRAR (International Centre for Radio Astronomy Reasearch) - UWA (University of Western Australia) 25 July 2011''. Since 1962, the values of Ho and To have remained the same. In the Big Bang model, To is interpreted as being the 'age' of the Universe. Estimated at around 2 billion years in 1925-1930, the value of To has since been reassessed through thousands of observations made by numerous research institutes as well as by NASA. NASA's latest data (WMAP 5-Table7-Cosmological Parameter Summary-2008) gives To a value that is within 2-3% of that of the temporalistic cons
