Excellent book by a very intelligent manSeptember 30, 1997 7 out of 10 found this review helpful
Genisis Revisited and The 12th Planet are very scholarly works. Anyone who has studied Geology and found anomolies that didn't make sense, will find a key to why Sitchin says what he does, because we all aren't versed in ancient languages like he is, it should lead to other reading for the curious. To follow this line of thinking, do read The Hidden History of Human Ancestory, or author Charles Happgood, and a few others. Excellent for those not stuck in a cave.

The author makes some compelling links between current scientific discoveries and his interpretations of the ancient Sumerian texts. He deftly demonstrates that the writers of those texts had knowledge far more advanced than present-day archeaologists and paleoanthropogists would lead us to believe. Al in all, a very interesting work. The last chapter is highly speculative, but still makes the reader think. A recommended read for all students of 'how did we get here?
