"John E. Chappell Jr. Creator Of the Dissident Science Revolution" is an article by Harry Hamlin Ricker published on 13 September 2019 on Beyond Mainstream.
Ricker traces the origin of the movement to reform establishment science to John E Chappell, founder and driving force of the Natural Philosophy Alliance. He follows the organisation from Chappell's death in June 2002, through its rupture and disintegration in 2014, to the founding of the John Chappell Natural Philosophy Society in his name. Ricker notes that he never met or corresponded with Chappell and that most of his papers are unavailable, which is part of what prompted the piece.
