The entire series has been peer reviewed, right?

Most of the greatest achievements of science took place before what we call today peer review.

“Most of the greatest achievements of science took place before what we call today peer review.”

Achievements, not publications.
Today, we subject scientific articles to peer review. Unreviewed articles are nothing more than musings designed to deceive.

And that's why we know about them. There was no one to quash the new discoveries because they didn't adhere to current scientific dogma, aka consensus.
