Synopsis
FIRST STERLING PROPRIETARY PAPERBACK EDITION. 2015 deluxe( w/ flaps) jumbo oversize trade paperback, Peter James, Nick Thorpe (Ancient Mysteries: Discover the latest intriguing, Scientifically sound explanations to Age-old puzzles). You leave your seventh-floor apartment, curse the congested traffic that delays you, and stop at a fast-food restaurant on your way to have cataract surgery. You live in Rome in A.D. 25. Ancient Inventions entertainingly demonstrate that there is indeed little new under the sun. The book is divided by the authors (Centuries of Darkness, LJ 3/15/93) into convenient, browsable sections such as "Sex Life," "Military Technology," and "Communications," each one presenting fascinating evidence of the extent to which human knowledge can be extinguished. Cute rather than hilarious in its humor, Ancient Inventions is thoroughly researched and profusely illustrated; it is doubtful that anyone could examine it without coming away enlightened in one of its broadly ranging areas. - Amazon
