Eye opening,
By miguelito (princeton, nj) - See all my reviews
This review is from: The Ankh: African Origin of Electromagnetism (Paperback)
For those people interested in the historical significane and powerful meaning of the ankh, as well as its scientific properties this book would be great reading for you.My one suggestion to any reader would be, keep an open mind. It is not a book rooted in the status quo, by any means. Some of the scientific evidence is truly intriguing but if you are not accustomed to reading about electromagnetism and the properties of it, then this might be a little hard to follow at times. Overall, this book did raise my eyebrows more than a few times and sparked my interest to learn more.

This review is from: The Ankh: African Origin of Electromagnetism (Paperback)
This book is really fascinating because it's dealing with plain truths that are present in everyday electronic engineering. I am a former member of the U.S. Armed Forces with tours in the National Security Agency, (NSA) and I can tell you that many of the things that are discussed in this book are a reality within the intelligence community. A great read!

I Remember Reading This,
This review is from: The Ankh: African Origin of Electromagnetism (Paperback)
When I was a student of eletronics. I was mostly fascinated with electricity, and sinewaves. The Ankh and the Jed or Tet with the coil wrapped around them reminded me of many things that I had forgotten so long ago. Too bad I gave this book away, after I read it, because I would like to read it again.

This review is from: The Ankh: African Origin of Electromagnetism (Paperback)
This book was very good and it informed me of alot of i did not know about electromagnetism and how the europeans stole alot of afrikan ideas and devices and used them for their own gain and deny the very existence of technology in afrika. i recommend this book to any and everyone. Worth it. it goes in depth with pictures and every covers more topics about ancient kemit.

Short and Sweet,
By Mari-Djata (In the belly of the beast eating what it already ate.) - See all my reviews
This review is from: The Ankh: African Origin of Electromagnetism (Paperback)
The Ankh: African Origin of Electromagnetism by Nur Ankh Amen is a surprisingly easy read for its subject matter. It deals with the idea (fact?) that the ankh created by Africans living in the Nile River Valley has various electronic uses that the people could have used in a variety of ways. Now, I am not a scientist of electronics, but I love African history and when Nur Ankh Amen coincides the 'discovery' of electricity manipulation in European countries to their 'discovery' (Europe loves that word) of ancient Egyptian knowledge, I was quite blown. However, I chose to read this book not for the science of electricity, but of its dealing with melanin as a super-conductor, which I found to be the most precise explanation of the phenomena than all of the other melanin books. Once again, I was blown away by the idea that the ankh is useless to those who do not have a high melanin content, thus, it could not be used by Europeans! He even tells us that dead black bodies also become more conductive as time pass, which could have major ramifications when it comes to the pyramids as being used as some kind of power source! Too bad the chapter, like the whole book, was short, but melanin is indeed the key of life.
Of course, the only reason why I cannot take the book for its word is for the lack of hard evidence. I have no problem believing that African cultures were highly scientific and strove towards learning the secrets of the world, both in urban megacities and in rural areas. I also acknowledge that the theft and destruction waged upon ancient Egypt and the whole of Africa for over 2000 years by damn near every people will cause a serious problem in finding that proof. The burning of books, the dismantling and flooding of pyramids, the disfiguring of statues and medu netcher writings, the hoarding and secreting of ancient manuscripts and instruments have all concluded in an Africa that looks bare and ragged. How could such people have ever been great? While that may be the idea bandied about by Eurocentrics and neophytes to African history, I do believe that time is on the side of inquiry and that one day we will find the proof necessary before the forces that want to destroy it do. Finally, I also likes how he shows that all of these scientific wonders were ultimately researched upon by supremely religious beings. I am not religious, but I find it highly suspicious that science and religions are being forced a part as if there is something inherently contradictory of the two being together. I do not think that religions today can be very scientific, but that it because these religions (Judaism, Christianity, Islam) is more interested in domination and blind faith. However, that does not mean that there were never faiths that demand that its adherents ask hard questions. Indeed, 'faiths' is a misnomer when it comes to such religions, as they worshiped scientific concepts that they strove to prove, not by a book or weapons, but by sheer scientific inquiry that was very un-objective and very personal. These African religions need to come back, or at least back in public view since they never truly died.

This review is from: The Ankh: African Origin of Electromagnetism (Paperback)
Just obtained this book and it's BLOWING ME AWAY! Had no idea that so much info was packed into such a skinny little book. If you aren't ready for a mind change, don't even read it. It WILL "mess up" all you thought you knew, but that's GREAT because IT WILL make you THINK. Peace.

This review is from: The Ankh: African Origin of Electromagnetism (Paperback)
This is a fantastic book. I learnt a lot from reading this and it all made perfect sense. I would highly recommend this book, especially for those on a quest to learn about Egyptology and the significance of the ankh.
