Review
"Exciting . . . credible . . . most provocative and compelling."
(
Library Journal )
"Sitchin's works are outstandingly different from all others that present this central theme. His linguistic skills in the languages of antiquity and his pursuit of the earliest available texts and artifacts make possible the wealth of photographs and line drawings appearing in his books from tablets, monuments, murals, pottery, and seals."
(
Rosemary Decker, historian and researcher )
"Sitchin is a zealous investigator into man's origins . . . a dazzling performance."
(
Kirkus Reviews )
" . . . a mind-boggling revelation sure to overturn current theories about the origins of humankind and the solar system." (

From the Inside Flap
Science and Myth
Are they one and the same? • Has a prehistoric space base on Mars been reactivated?
• Was Adam the first test-tube baby? And was Eve the original beneficiary of organ transplant surgery?
• Did nuclear weapons destroy Sodom and Gomorrah?
• Did computer printouts exist 5,000 years ago?
• How were the ancients able to accurately
describe details about our solar system that are only
now being revealed by space probes?
• Is humankind, in catching up with ancient knowledge, also repeating ancient incidents as that of the Tower of Babel?
The awesome answers are all here, fully documented with the latest scientific findings, in this important companion volume to
The Earth Chronicles series. Having presented evidence of an additional planet as well as voluminous information about the other planets in our solar system, Zecharia Sitchin now shows how the discoveries of modern astrophysics, astronomy, and genetics exactly parallel what has
already been revealed in ancient Sumerian, Egyptian, and biblical texts regarding the enigmas of the heavens, Earth, and the creation of life.
Genesis Revisited is a mind-boggling revelation sure to overturn current theories about the origins of humankind and the solar system.
Zecharia Sitchin was born in Russia and grew up in Palestine, where he acquired a profound knowledge of modern and ancient Hebrew, other Semitic and European languages, the Old Testament, and the history and archaeology of the Near East. He is distinguished by his ability to translate and interpret ancient Sumerian and other ancient texts. A graduate of the University of London with a degree in economic history, he worked as a journalist and editor for many years prior to undertaking his life’s work--
The Earth Chronicles. He now lives and writes in New York City.
