About this title

Synopsis

This book involves an extraordinary claim: that the authors have determined to within a statistical certainty the original home of modern man, and that the remains of that ancient homeland are within our solar system. The evidence and logic behind the claim are compelling. The problem has been, that standard pronouncements on human origins are problematical no matter where you turn. If you want to believe that humans evolved from hominids, you need to believe that some hominid: Lost his fur coat while an ice age was in progress. Lost 99% of his sense of smell while trying to survive as a land prey animal. Lost almost all of his night vision at a time when night was the only time of day to be had. Not what most people would call a formula for success... If you prefer to believe that God created modern man fully formed, then there is a question as to whether God would create a creature on a world for which the creature was spectacularly ill-adapted. This book does not answer every question which readers will have about human origins. But several of the questions which it DOES answer are very big ones. These include: Where did modern man come from? What was the relationship between Cro Magnon man and the familiar antediluvian people of Genesis? What if any relationship was there between humans and hominids? And a number of others.
