4.0 out of 5 stars
A sensible theory,
This review is from: The Great Pyramid Prosperity Machine: Why the Great Pyramid was Built! (Paperback)
The Great Pyramid Prosperity Machine is a fine companion volume to the author's previous book, Lost Technologies of the Great Pyramid. Steven Myers has presented a theory about the purpose of the Great Pyramid that makes a lot of sense from an engineering standpoint and solves many of the mysteries surrounding this great structure.The book is written for the layman and those readers who do not have a mechanical or technological mindset can easily understand how this amazing machine worked to pump life-giving water to an arid environment. Forget about Alien Intervention, Mysticism and other esoteric explanations and read about how and why the author's explanation is both possible and plausible. Even considering the time and expense that was required to build this magnificent structure what greater gift could a God-King, the Pharaoh, give to his people than abundant and available water? I recommend this book. It will give you a different perspective on a controversial subject and make you think!

This review is from: The Great Pyramid Prosperity Machine: Why the Great Pyramid was Built! (Paperback)
I was very skeptical when I bought this book. I was expecting something far fetched and New Age-ish, or another claim that the Great Pyramid was a ram pump. What I found when reading this book were some incredible, common sense insights that are completely new. The author's idea is that the Pyramid was a two stage a pump, but not a ram pump. He roughs out, rather convincingly how each stage operated. His ideas make sense of the different features of the Great Pyramid that up to this point seemed pointless or were explained in some hocus pokus, mystical conjecture way . If one has any interest in the mystery of the Great Pyramid then this is a MUST READ book! There are insights, connections and ideas here that I have never run across before. If you crave that "AHA!" moment. If the mystery of what the Great Pyramid is and why it was built is something that has been nagging at your brain then you need to buy this book. By the way, don't be put off by the cover and the title. I think they were an unfortunate choice of the author. This book has nothing to do with investments.

Easily conceivable technology and abundant common sense...,
This review is from: The Great Pyramid Prosperity Machine: Why the Great Pyramid was Built! (Paperback)
The Great Pyramid is the most studied and surveyed building in the world. No other structure has inspired such wonder and, at the same time, evaded the efforts of scholars to explain how and why it was built. Until Mr. Myers, the logic of the thing seemed to defy imagination. The sober truth is that no orthodox historian has yet advanced any convincing explanation of the great pyramid's construction or purpose.With his two books, Lost Technologies of the Great Pyramid and The Great Pyramid Prosperity Machine, Steven Myers has set right these ageless mysteries. Within these pages, you`re witness to the construction and end-use of the largest and most mysterious monument on earth. It's a fantastic book, crafted to the eye of the reader. Easily conceivable technology and abundant common sense are happy companions, as each paragraph unlocks the mute silence of its stones...

Great Pyramids,
This review is from: The Great Pyramid Prosperity Machine: Why the Great Pyramid was Built! (Paperback)
I just want to say that this new book written by Myers is a fantastic read, Myers new ground breaking ideas gives an entirely new look into the real uses of the Great Pyramids. For the first time, somebody has given me a fresh new idea on how the Pyramids were really built, with sound practical ideas that make real sense. Mr Myers is a breath of fresh air in his thinking, the smarts of a giant in a world full of intellectual midgets. Hats off to you Mr Myers, you have succeeded were others have failed, some day your ideas will scientific law.John in Illinois

Many things to ponder,
This review is from: The Great Pyramid Prosperity Machine: Why the Great Pyramid was Built! (Paperback)
What a great companion to the first book! The second goes into more depth and is an easy read for the average person who does not know a lot about engineering. This book extends the theories presented in the first and offers additional insights. I would encourage anyone who wants to be challenged to consider these ideas.

Mr. Myers research, observations and conclusions regarding the function of the Great Pyramid make great sense. I appreciate his way of looking upon the wonders created by the ancient Egyptians and seeing them as intelligent in their vision and technology as in their legacy in stone. To look at a thing and envision the method of its creation and the purpose for which it was built is the mark of a discerning mind. This book presents new ideas, builds on the work of other such thinkers while abandoning nonsense that has not stood up to scrutiny, and brings it all together in a manner that spurs the imagination. As a design professional I found the books explanations of the ancient technology to be very interesting and workable. I look forward to Mr. Myers next book and the further results of his ongoing research. Keep it up Steven!
