[MF]ITEM ZZ02…TUTANKHAMEN AND THE VALLEY OF THE KINGS Otto Neubert $7

Otto Neubert was one of the few survivors of the curse which came upon most of those who were present at the opening of King Tutankhamun’s tomb.  He provides a first-hand account of the unparalleled splendours and wealth revealed in the tomb, and tells a taut and terrifying tale of the Egypt of Nefertiti and Tutankhamun at the height of that civilization’s most cruel and excessive era.

[MG]ITEM MG03…NOT FROM THE APES: A HISTORY OF MAN’S ORIGINS & EVOLUTION Bjorn Kurten $7

The title of this book implies support for creationism, but the content certainly does not. Dr. Kurten shows, with the impeccable thoroughness and the clear, logical writing style that is his hallmark, that man and the anthropoid apes, such as the gorilla, chimpanzee, and orangutan, separated from a common ancestor over 12 million years ago, deep in the Miocene. He traces the history of Ramapithecus, an ape-like creature that lived in India, and shows that Ramapithecus and its descendants, the australopithecines, although simian in look, were actually hominids; the ancestors of man. Dr. Kurten's anatomical studies are copious and well-reasoned, and his proofs impressive in support of his theory.

Kurten, a Scandinavian social scientist currently out of Cambridge (Mass.), postulates that man's biological development has been ""unique"" for at least 35 million years, i.e., separate from that of monkeys and apes; and that moreover man did not descend from anthropoids (as commonly supposed) but that the reverse is true.  A classical Darwinian natural selectionist, Kurten pegs his theories entirely on Dartian fossil evidence discovered by Professor Raymond Dart in Johannesburg in 1924 (the Dartian being the oldest and most primitive early man known today), reviewing in a non-technical manner the current literature and data, particularly comparative humanoid-ape teeth structure. In addition, Kurten uses Dartian remains and artifacts (discovered by Leaky) to dispute anthropologist Carleton Coon's well-known theory about the late development of the Negroid race -- ""there is no reason to believe (it) younger than the other races."" But what is most interesting about Not From the Apes is the last quarter of the book in which Kurten speculates about the future of the natural selection process on man: he ridicules the so-called ""bad gene"" theory, suggests that chemicals and drugs might have a profound effect on the selection equation, and finally concludes that biological research is on the brink of breaking the genetic code which will permit direct control of human evolution, a possibility Kurten views as the key to ""real freedom." Authoritative popular science with just enough controversy and flair to keep you upright.

[MH,MG]ITEM MG04…GENESIS OF THE COSMOS LaViolette NO BIG BANG $20

This book ***provides compelling evidence that creation myths from the dawn of civilization correspond to cutting edge astronomical discoveries ***exposes the contradictions in current cosmological theory and offers a scientific basis for the ancient myths and esoteric lore that encode a theory of continuous creation ***is by the scientist who was the first to disprove the Big Bang theory on the basis of observational data.  Recent developments in theoretical physics, including systems theory and chaos theory, are challenging long-held mechanistic views of the universe.  Many thinkers have speculated that the remnants of the pre-historic science of Atlantis, for example, survive today in mythology and esoteric lore, but until now the scientific basis for this belief has remained cloaked in mystery.  Paul LaViolette reveals the remarkable parallels between the cutting edge of scientific thought and creation myths from the dawn of civilization. With a scientific sophistication rare among mythologists, LaViolette deciphers the forgotten cosmology of ancient lore in a groundbreaking scientific tour de force.  In direct, nontechnical language, he shows how these myths encode a theory of cosmology in which matter is continually growing from seeds of order that emerge spontaneously from the surrounding subquantum chaos.  Exposing the contradictions that bedevil the big bang theory, LaViolette offers both the specialist and the general reader a controversial and highly stimulating critique of prevailing misconceptions about the seldom-questioned superiority of modern science over ancient cosmology.  By restoring and reanimating this ancient scientific worldview, Genesis of the Cosmos leads us beyond the restrictive metaphors of modern science and into a new science for the Aquarian Age.

[MH,II]ITEM DG01…THE SIRIUS CONNECTION Murry Hope $15
Sirius, bright Dog Star of the night sky, holds the key to the destiny of our planet. So believed the ancient Egyptians, guardians of a mysterious and profound system of wisdom, lost to us down the centuries but now being rediscovered. What was the nature of this wisdom? Where did it come from? What was the significance of its secret practices and beliefs? The Sirius Connection unlocks the secrets of ancient Egypt as mythologist Murry Hope explores this antique wisdom and sets out to explain the source of ancient Egyptian wisdom and the significance of its beliefs and secret practices. She investigates ancient Egyptian beliefs and how that sophisticated culture could have been inherited from a much older and more profound tradition --- comparable to anything we know today, one which combines a knowledge of general science, astronomy, astrophysics and psychology. In The Sirius Connection, Hope transcends the restrictions of traditional historical methods to render a picture of ancient Egypt in its own context and allows readers to concentrate on the origins of its culture. This is lively, engaging reading and a provocative addition to any metaphysical studies collection!
