A talk by Robert Eisler , d.sc., Ph.D.
Dr. Eisler's thesis is that astrology has declined from a daring attempt to explain the world scientifically into a dangerous superstition influencing large numbers of people. He asserts that it demands serious sociological study.
Dr. Eisler, an Austrian, is author of The Royal Art of Astrology and has written books on many subjects ranging from economics to the history of religion. In 1935 he was elected Wilde Lecturer to the University of Oxford, but was interned in Dachau by the Germans before he was able to take up the post
