From the Back Cover
"5/5/2000 is an extraordinary treasury of knowledge, hard facts, brilliant intuition and formidable research. It has played a unique role in waking a generation up to the deep and abiding mystery of the human past -- and to the uncertainty of our future."
-- Graham Hancock, Author of Fingerprints of the Gods
"Noone's ground-breaking research is a startling wake-up call to everyone living on earth."
-- Dr. G. Patrick Flanagan, Author Pyramid Power
"Noone not only takes us along on his incredible journey, he does it with gentle humor, even when interviewing those who cannot hear or dare not entertain new ideas and evidence."
-- Elizabeth Hapgood, Author Tidal Wave in Our Time
"Richard Noone's painstaking investigation into the lost technology of the sophisticated builders of the Great Pyramid of Giza helps to unravel the mystery of this geodetic and astronomic wonder, answering questions as to who constructed it, when, how, and why. Noone's research also highlights the continued struggle of scholars against the pitted obscurantism of the local authorities who continue to block research into what must be considered the patrimony not only of Egypt but of humanity."
-- Peter Tompkins, Author Secrets of the Great Pyramid
"Noone has woven a number of unusual and seemingly disparate threads into a single, provocative, scholarly tapestry."
-- John Anthony West, Author Serpent in the Sky
"5/5/2000 is a timeless classic that has nurtured the spirit and imaginations of a whole generation of readers. It is a formidably informative and imaginative work that will leave you spellbound and awestruck with the realization that civilizations are indeed mortal and our foothold on this planet remains only at the pleasure of Mother Nature."
-- Christopher Dunn, Author The Giza Power Plant: Technologies of Ancient Egypt
"An extraordinary compendium of forgotten lore and lost knowledge."
-- Publishers Weekly
"It is my hope that every Mason will find time to read this brilliant new
book."
