Summary: "The Book of the Damned" by Charles Fort is a philosophical treatise written in the early 20th century. This unique work delves into the realm of scientific anomalies and the data that has historically been excluded or dismissed by conventional science. Fort explores the notion that many phenomena—deemed 'damned' by the authoritative structures of science—are in fact vital pieces of knowledge that challenge established realities. The opening of the text introduces a vibrant procession of 'the damned'—a metaphor for the vast array of scientific data and observations that have been marginalized, ignored, or ridiculed by the mainstream scientific community. Fort paints a vivid landscape filled with instances of unusual atmospheric events, strange materials falling from the sky, and broader philosophical musings on the nature of existence and knowledge. Through this lens, he presents a compelling argument that our understanding of reality is shaped by what we choose to include or exclude, suggesting that the pursuit of knowledge is often hindered by a rigid adherence to the established dogmas of science.
