Why Is Eric Lerner Influential?

(Suggest an Edit or Addition)

According to Wikipedia, Eric J. Lerner is an American popular science writer and independent plasma researcher. He wrote the 1991 book The Big Bang Never Happened, which advocates Hannes Alfvén's plasma cosmology instead of the Big Bang theory. He is founder, president, and chief scientist of Lawrenceville Plasma Physics, Inc. now known as LPPFusion.
