Advantages: A book that challenges the very nature of civilization Disadvantages: A lot of information needs to be absorbed
Mention the word Atlantis to people and most will automatically categorise anything that you have to say following that statement in the section marked "fairytales" possibly also in the subsection "get this idiot away from me". But although it is a word that seems to be associated with Sinbad movies and progressive rock albums, it still has its place in historical research; the problem is most people who go looking for the answer to Atlantis haven't ... ...more high profile than that. The problem is that the few veiled references that occur two and a half thousand years ago in his writing have since been manipulated, added to, sensationalised and have grown out of all proportion thanks to everyone from well respected academic authors to the Hollywood film industry.

Manufacturer's product description
In June 1990, Egyptologist John West accompanied geologist Robert Schoch to Cairo, to take a closer look at the Sphinx. For almost two decades, West had been arguing that the erosion of the Sphinx revealed that it had been weathered by rain rather than windblown sand. If that was true, then the Sphinx had to be thousands of years older than Egyptologists believe - after all, Egypt has had no rain in thousands of years. They concluded that the Sphinx dates back to 7000 BC - a time when in fact there was not supposed to be any civilization anywhere in the world - and has been built by the survivors of the vanished civilization which Plato called Atlantis. Rand Flem-Ath and Colin Wilson's book crosses continents, arguing that this earlier civilization did exist but was destroyed around 9600 BC. See all Product Description
