About this title

Synopsis

The Cosmogonies Of Primitive Races is a book written by the Swedish scientist Svante Arrhenius. The book takes a look at the creation myths of various primitive cultures from around the world. The author explores the different beliefs and theories that these cultures had about the origins of the universe, the earth, and human life. The book is divided into chapters that focus on different regions and cultures, including the Native American tribes, the ancient Egyptians, the Greeks, the Chinese, and the Australian Aborigines. Arrhenius examines the similarities and differences between these cosmogonies and discusses the scientific theories that have been developed to explain the origins of the universe. The book is written in an accessible style and is suitable for both scholars and general readers who are interested in the history of human thought and the origins of our world.THIS 22 PAGE ARTICLE WAS EXTRACTED FROM THE BOOK: Life of the Universe Part 1, by Svante Arrhenius.
