Peer reviewed? Hardly.
It's one thing to submit a paper to a reputable academic journal, which is then reviewed by qualified peers for conformity with scientific standards.
Quite another to submit a paper to a book that is 'edited' by a few like minded people who may or may not be even qualified to speak to the physics in the paper.
Not to mention the fact that, despite being older scholar, Steve Jones has never published a paper in a peer reviewed journal:

And, to top it all off, Jones' own department had this to say about his 9/11 'theory':
"The university is aware that Professor Steven Jones's hypotheses and interpretations of evidence regarding the collapse of World Trade Center buildings are being questioned by a number of scholars and practitioners, including many of BYU's own faculty members. Professor Jones's department and college administrators are not convinced that his analyses and hypotheses have been submitted to relevant scientific venues that would ensure rigorous technical peer review." The Fulton College of Engineering and Technology department has also added, "The structural engineering faculty in the Fulton College of Engineering and Technology do not support the hypotheses of Professor Jones."
Nope, no conspiracy here, just an aging academic trying to make his mark during the twilight of what clearly has been a decidely mediocre academic career.
Were it not for the insult to those who died in the 9/11 terrorist attacks, his "theory" would be sad in an Arthur Miller "Death of A Salesman" kind of way. The reality of the situation, however, makes it absolutely
nauseating.
