About the book

This is a book on ancient riddles in science and talks to us about things like Space Travel in the past as well as Batteries. Very interesting. I read it when I was young, and it made a lasting impression and also made me very open to the idea that what we see today and what we hear today, need not necesarily be true....

Subjects: Science, Ancient Science, History, Miscellanea, Ancient Civilization, Extraterrestrial influences
