You wrote,[...another book...entirely different point of view...]
I am unsure as to what you are wanting to mean here as the poster cited Whitaker's book. If you could post answers to the following, then I could have the opportunity to respond accordingly.
1A. Is there a book that you know of that refutes the thesis of the Whitaker book cited here?
2A. If so, could you post the title of the book here?
1B. There are facts in the Whitaker book cited here. Have you read the book?
2B. If you have not read the book, could you post here your rationale, if any, for stating that there could be another book with an entirely different point of view?
