    This book is my second on stranger than science stories and facts. The idea is from the book “Stranger Than Science” by Frank Edwards that I read when I was a kid. It made a great impression on me since it caused me to be curious about all of the unknown facts in the world. 
In this Volume Two I’ve gone through my 120 plus books again to find interesting subjects I’ve either experienced or researched which were not discussed in the first book. 
My goal is to open the eyes of the reader to facts and stories about the unknown they may not know about. Hopefully this will lead you to become more open minded and think seriously about new things which may not have been part of your life before. 
Here you will read stories about the Paranormal, Spiritual Enlightenment, Legendary animals like Dragons, giant snakes, living dinosaurs, ball lightning, alien anti-gravity technology, improving longevity, and much more. 
I promise you will not be bored with the materials we cover here. 
After reading this book I hope you can see that our world is truly mysterious and the more we know, the more questions we have, and the more there is to know.

    A Next Big Idea Club "Must Read" for August 2025! 
 
Extreme heat, fires, floods, and storms are transforming our planet. Yet we get increasing emissions, divisive politics, and ersatz solutions that offer more of the same: more capitalism, more complexity, more "progress." 
 
The impasse we face is not only political and institutional, but cognitive, existential, and narrative. We're incapable of grasping the scale, speed, and impact of global warming. And we optimistically cling to a narrative that promises a better tomorrow if we just keep doing what we're doing. 
 
It's past time to free ourselves from our dangerous and dogmatic faith. Such unwarranted optimism will accelerate our disintegration. If we want to have hope for the future, it must be grounded in a recognition of human limits—a view Scranton calls ethical pessimism. 
 
Scranton describes the challenges we face in making sense of our predicament, from problems in communication to questions of justice, from the inherent biases in human perception to the difficulties of empirical knowledge. What emerges is a challenging but hopeful proposition: if we have the courage to accept our limits, we may find a way to embrace our future.

    Cetology, the scientific study of cetaceans—whales, dolphins, and porpoises—plays a vital role in understanding the complexities of marine ecosystems. This branch of marine biology delves into the behaviors, anatomy, physiology, ecology, and conservation of these magnificent creatures. The field's significance extends beyond simply observing and classifying different species; it also serves as a lens through which we can better comprehend the delicate balance of life in the ocean and the various environmental pressures influencing it. 
The study of cetology has captivated scientists and marine enthusiasts alike for centuries. Early observations of cetaceans were often based on myths, folklore, and a limited understanding of the creatures' biology and behavior. However, as marine exploration advanced and the field of marine science grew, researchers began to focus on the detailed study of cetaceans, uncovering insights into their complex lives. The 19th and 20th centuries brought with them key developments in cetological research, including advancements in the identification of different species, the discovery of migration patterns, and breakthroughs in understanding cetacean communication. 
Cetology covers a vast range of topics, from the anatomical and physiological traits that make cetaceans uniquely adapted to life in water to their social structures and interactions within pods. The study of cetacean communication, including their use of sound to navigate, hunt, and socialize, has proven to be one of the most fascinating aspects of cetology. Researchers have discovered that whales and dolphins use a complex system of vocalizations, clicks, and whistles, which play a critical role in their survival and social organization.

    Geratology is the scientific study of aging, encompassing its biological, psychological, and social dimensions. While often confused with geriatrics, which focuses on medical care for older adults, geratology takes a broader approach, examining aging as a lifelong process that affects individuals and societies in complex ways. Understanding geratology is crucial as global life expectancy rises and aging populations reshape economic, healthcare, and social structures. 
The origins of geratology trace back to early philosophical and medical inquiries into longevity. Ancient Greek and Roman scholars explored aging as a natural phenomenon, while modern scientific advancements have provided deeper insights into the mechanisms of aging. Over the past century, geratology has evolved into an interdisciplinary field, drawing from biology, psychology, sociology, and public health to analyze how people age and how societies can better support aging populations. 
At its core, geratology investigates the biological changes that occur with age. These include cellular senescence, genetic factors, and the gradual decline of organ function. Research into longevity has uncovered key processes such as telomere shortening, oxidative stress, and the role of inflammation in age-related diseases. While aging is an inevitable process, scientific advancements continue to explore ways to slow its progression and improve quality of life in later years.
