520 2  "An insider's look into the decades of research behind 
       Zecharia Sitchin's books as well as an in-depth overview 
       of his theories and discoveries. Includes carefully 
       selected chapters from the Earth Chronicles series as well
       as never-before-published letters, articles, and lectures.
       Each piece includes an introduction, offering context and 
       insight into Sitchin's passionate work and revealing the 
       man behind the theories. Explains the genesis of The 12th 
       Planet, the Anunnaki influences on the Sumerian 
       civilization, the orbit of Nibiru, the prehistory of the 
       Americas, the extraterrestrial origins of modern man, and 
       much more. What if the tales from the Old Testament and 
       other ancient writings, such as those from Sumer, Babylon,
       Egypt, and Greece, were not myths or allegory but accounts
       of actual historical events? Known for his ability to read
       and interpret ancient Sumerian and Akkadian clay tablets, 
       Zecharia Sitchin (1920-2010) took the words of our most 
       ancient ancestors as fact and, through decades of 
       meticulous research, showed that they revealed a coherent 
       narrative about the true origins of humanity and 
       civilization. Drawing both widespread interest and 
       criticism, his Earth Chronicles series of books, beginning
       with The 12th Planet, detailed how humanity arose after 
       the arrival of the Anunnaki ('those who from Heaven to 
       Earth came'), alien 'gods' who created modern man in their
       own image and imparted gifts of civilizing knowledge. 
       Providing an insider's look into the decades of research 
       behind Zecharia Sitchin's complete works as well as an in-
       depth overview of his theories, this collection includes 
       carefully selected chapters from the Earth Chronicles 
       series as well as never-before-published letters, articles,
       and lectures. We learn about the genesis of The 12th 
       Planet in 'The Book as a Story,' the Sumerians and their 
       Anunnaki influences in 'The Sudden Civilization,' the 
       orbit of Nibiru in 'UFOs, Pyramids, and the 12th Planet,' 
       the prehistory of the Americas in 'Cities Lost and Found,'
       the extraterrestrial origins of modern man in 'The Cosmic 
       Connection--DNA,' and much more. We get to read never-
       before-published lectures, culled from Sitchin's decades 
       of presentations, as well as the article that spurred the 
       writing of There Were Giants Upon the Earth. Each piece 
       includes an introduction by Sitchin's niece, offering 
       context and insight into Sitchin's passionate work. These 
       introductions reveal the man behind the theories, a world 
       traveler known for his scholarship, dry humor, and 
       precisely chosen words. If his theories are true, as 
       Sitchin wholeheartedly believed, then this collection 
       presents some of the most important knowledge we have of 
       our origins and future"--|cProvided by publisher.
