Later Years and Current Work
Bockris retired from Texas A&M University in 1997 at the age of 74. He is currently 89. Since then has worked on two themes:
- Carbon-neutral fuels to replace gasoline.
- Further examination of the validity of D + D → He and 24 Mev reaction first described in 1992.
In the latter case, he has had much correspondence and interchanges with colleagues. Synthesis of He is very rare.
A further major contribution was published in 2005. This is a full consideration (500 + pages) of the challenges offered to the standard model of Physics by many of the phenomena studied under paranormal science.
The book includes wide discussion of, e.g., the concept of Consciousness.

The duty and the task of a writer are those of an interpreter.”
