"Most of us who have an interest in the planet we live on have seen diagrams showing the Earth's interior. We are told it is very hot and made of iron. Is this really true? How far have we actually ""dug down"" to find this ""hot ball of iron""? Where did our enormous oceans come from and have they always been here? And anyway, how did our planet form? Have you ever looked at a map and noticed how the west coast of Africa seems to fit against the east coast of South America - as if they were pieces of some enormous continental jigsaw? Has our planet always been the same size, or has it grown since it formed? Why do some people think we might live on a ""hollow earth?"" And how was it possible for the dinosaurs to grow to such enormous size, millions of years ago? How are all these questions even related to each other?

In this book we will try to find some answers to these questions by looking at the research of Dr James Maxlow, Jan Lamprecht, Stephen Hurrell, Peter Woodhead, Wallace Thornhill, Fredrik Nygaard and Neal Adams. We will look at some of the most compelling scientific and geological evidence which shows that the Earth is expanding. We will embark on a journey through time and inner space, learn a little about gravity and the ""Electric Universe"" and attempt to find the truth about what may be at the centre of our planet, and understand why it is expanding."
