The text below contains feedback from readers of The Unified Cycle Theory:
1) Alex Allen, from England, emphasizes how the theory has brought together pre-existing evidence into a cohesive package:
"The book is fantastic! You've brought together all the necessary ingredients for the first time. I think this book will prove to be a watershed event in cycle analysis. Time will tell. All books or theories before this publication have only brought part of the story (either a theory but no cycle, or a cycle but no theory to back it up). I have been doing similar work (as a hobby) for the past 9 years and I found myself saying 'yes' to just about every major point you made because it rhymes exactly with my observations and wider studies (on civilizations, monetary systems, solunar influences etc). It's not that this hasn't been staring us in the face -- yet no one has ever brought it all together and presented such compelling evidence from so many sources."
2) Hans van As, from The Netherlands, stresses the material's presentation:
"I must complement you on your work. I like your use of comprehensible language. This, combined with the data and the graphs to visualize your theory, makes it quite fascinating.... Well done!"
3) Peter Eliades, editor of Stockmarket Cycles at http://www.stockmarketcycles.com/, enjoyed the dramatic nature of these cycles, the supportive evidence, and the influence these cycles exert on global climate:
"Puetz has created a cyclic tour de force from the research that led to The Unified Cycle Theory. He presents chapters of evidence supporting each part of his theory and he proposes what to many may be a startling theory -- that a harmonic physical cycle exists that affects virtually everything in our universe. The Unified Cycle Theory proposes four contributing factors to the formation of cycles, namely gravitational, electromagnetic, weak nuclear, and strong nuclear forces. He deals with them in detail and he even answers the life-long question that has perplexed so many in my field of cycle analysis -- what makes cycles apparently appear and disappear from time to time.... Of great pleasure to me personally is his presentation of strong scientific evidence that debunks the current craze regarding global warming.... It is a thesis that those of us who believe in cycles have attempted to debunk for a long time. Much as fundamentals lag the stock market rather than preceding or causing market fluctuations, Puetz provides scientific evidence of the real 'inconvenient truth' -- that atmospheric carbon dioxide levels actually lag global temperature change instead of causing it.... Puetz has written a compelling tome that should be read by all who seek causes of the apparently mysterious forces that rule our universe and by anyone who is interested in what the future may hold."
4) Steven Williams, of CyclePro at http://www.geocities.com/cyclepro2/Charts/SP500/Outlook.htm, was most intrigued by the way these cycles unified markets:
"Puetz has written a fascinating new book The Unified Cycle Theory - How Cycles Dominate the Structure of the Universe and Influence Life on Earth.... While not everyone will be immediately engaged in the full range of this material, once you read through it, the links and correlations will begin to sink in. The material in this book provides debatable fodder for students of economic cycles as well as historians and scientists across a broad spectrum of disciplines: geology, astrophysics, and climatology.... In my opinion, the real meat of the book is when Puetz gets down to the economic cycles for the recent history of man's financial endeavors, say the last three or four hundred years or so. This is where he has gone through very painstaking, yet requisite, detail correlating historical events with each of the theoretical cycle peaks and troughs.... In particular, the cycles that range from 28 days through 172 years are the ones that have the most impact, and benefit of foreknowledge, for current stock and commodity investors. All of the cycles in this range are well known already. And, some researchers have devised theories about how they may be interrelated. But until Puetz wrote The Unified Cycle Theory, no one had demonstrated how these cycles relate to other cycles in our natural universe. The implications are astounding, if all of the cycles from 28 day to 22 Gyr are truly inter-related, and then perhaps there is a natural 'heartbeat' somewhere that drives all cycles.... Puetz's Unified Cycle Theory should prove to be an excellent guide to help navigate the unchartered future. As history tends to rhyme, this book will be the roadmap to lead us forward."
5) Dave Allman, an editor at Elliott Wave International at http://www.elliottwave.net/, liked the scope of the book:
"[I] finished your book earlier this week and thoroughly enjoyed it. It's an amazing body of work."
6) If nothing else, The Unified Cycle Theory will provide you with excellent food for thought, as reflected by these comments from John Coleman, founder of The Weather Channel:

"These [cycles] will require some careful reading and thinking. For now, I am only interested but ... I have tagged your web-site for my study as time permits."
