First published in 1950, Worlds in Collision is Immanuel Velikovsky's controversial work of catastrophism, arguing that major cosmic disturbances involving the planets profoundly affected ancient civilisations and were preserved in mythology, religious texts and historical traditions.

The book became one of the most debated works of twentieth-century fringe cosmology and remains of interest to readers of alternative archaeology, unconventional ancient history, catastrophism and the history of disputed scientific ideas.
