Career

Kollerstrom has two degrees in the History of Science, the first at Cambridge followed by his Ph.D. at London, where he became a member of staff in the Science and Technology Studies Department. He was accepted as a Member of the New York Academy of Sciences in 1999, and invited to contribute to the Biographical Encyclopedia of Astronomy (William Hockey, ed., 2007), where he contributed the biography of Sir Isaac Newton.[2]

He has worked as a school mathematics teacher and, politically, had managed a successful Green party campaign. He worked as its Press Secretary in 1989. His involvement with the Green party lasted about a decade. In 1982 his first book was published, Lead on the Brain, a Guide to Britain’s Number One Pollutant. In the 1980s he did some work in the office of END, European Nuclear disarmament.

He is a former honorary research fellow in Science and Technology Studies at University College, London (UCL), and a former gardening correspondent for the BBC. [3]

Kollerstrom has been involved in the UK as a political activist regarding issues such as the 1982 sinking of the Belgrano by the UK Navy during the Falklands War, after which he helped set up the Belgrano Action Group.[4][5]

Research

Nicholas Kollerstrom was a founder-member of Britain's 9/11 Truth group, 2002-2010, which drew him into the arena of 'conspiracy theory'. Following the 7/7 London subway bombings in 2005, he discovered a glitch in the official story of the trains that the 'terrorist' had supposedly caught on that day that invalidated the "official account".[2]

His inquiries into cyanide absorption on the walls of the German labor-camps seventy years ago had him thrown out of University College London in 2008 on the ground that he was 'denying the Holocaust.' Subsequently his book, Breaking the Spell (2014), on the topic, brought mathematical, chemical and historical arguments to bear on the subject.[2]

He is the author or co-author of a number of books, including the Biodynamic farming calendar Gardening and Planting by the Moon (an annual series beginning 1980), Newton's Forgotten Lunar Theory (2000), Crop Circles (2002), and Terror on the Tube (2009).[2]

Kollerstrom's The Life and Death of Paul McCartney 1942–1966: A Very English Mystery (2015) supported the "Paul is dead" theory, namely, that Paul McCartney died in 1966 and was replaced by a look-alike.[6]
