History: Fiction or Science? (Chronology, No. 1)

Book Description

Recorded history is a finely-woven magic fabric of intricate lies about events predating the sixteenth century. There is not a single piece of evidence that can be reliably and independently traced back earlier than the eleventh century. This book details events that are substantiated by hard facts and logic, and validated by new astronomical research and statistical analysis of ancient sources.

Calculations are only as good as your numbers.......2007-08-03

Yes, we can all agree that mainstream history is nearly 100% BS due to politics, economics, ego, problems with dating techniques, and various conspiracies. Agreed. But, I've been researching the distinct possibility that human history (in terms of civilizations) are much more ancient than we've been told, so coming across this book was very interesting to me. I wondered how Fomenko could be wrong (if at all) because he is very persuasive in his presentations. Then it dawned on me. If at previous times in prehistory, due to the various catastrophies that are well documented (comets, asteroids, planetary disruptions, plasma discharge, pole reversals, etc) the Earth was in a different position in relation to the sun, different tilt on its axis, different orbit, different rotation (in terms of velocity and DIRECTION), and the continents were in different positions, then would this not cause the ancients to see the sky (constellations) differently? In other words, is Fomenko making erronious assumptions about the physics of the Earth in pre-history, which then corrupt his data with regards to dating the relevant astrology? The last event to seriously disrupt our planet occured roughly 3500 years ago, according to other good researchers, so is it possible Fomenko has been confused by this? The vastly different physics of our planet in the not so distant past may explain this confusion, which is not to say the "mainstream" version of history is correct; on the contrary. I am not an expert in these fields, but wanted to see if this idea could spark discussion.

Pants on fire?.......2007-07-19

Will people ever read before spamming? Yes, Jesuits could not rewrite world history alone, they had help. Anyway, Dr Prof Acad A.Fomenko does not point to jesuits as the driving force of world wide history manipulation in published volumes 1,2,3;, actually he barely mentions the poor devils. Check it with 'Search inside' feature, please. China is rarely mentioned either, in fact, Dr Fomenko is completely eurocentric. Right, his theory contradicts all mainstream schools of history, because in their actual state they are all built on blatantly erroneus chronology. You don't need a mysterious cabal (conspiracy) to falsify history, the falsification is its modus operandi. It is inherent to history(ians) to falsify (distort) events, as it is inherent to humans to boast as it is inherent to power (authority) to legimize itself by referrring to glorious past made to its own order. Dr Prof Fomenko and team have identified scores of instances of such manipulation in Russian, European, etc.. history, and delivered valid statistical proof thereof. His own 'reconstruction' is completely another story. Forget c14 as a valid method of dating. W.Libby has initially discovered a brilliant method of INDEPENDENT dating. Too bad, c14 method has become a joke after a forced marrige with dendrochronology with consensual chronological scale inbuilt. Radiocarbon method can't stand blind tests, but is so very productive as a rubberstamp.

Accepted History & Chronology Must Be Changed. .......2007-04-09

There is no doubt that history as most know it is a sham, & institution's version of History both University & Church is fradulent & inaccurate. Everything was established with an agenda, The real "Dark Ages" are now when we have access to incredible amounts of information past authorities & more important 'common folk' didn't have but our institutions & educators are slow to evolve because of what has ignorantly & arrogantly been taught for too long. This is on many subjects not just Chronology.

For anyone to question "Why would a Mathematician have anything credible to say of History?" The answer is from Dr. Fomenko's preface in the book: "It would be worthwhile to remind the reader that in the XVI-XVII century Chronology was considered to be a subdivision of Mathematics." These volumes could possibly be some of the most important works to date & should be read by everyone with an interest in History, especially professors & educators who have a duty to the public. I have read both books & must say that 'Chronology 1' has some very eye opening & revolutionary information. Even if these volumes are part true the implications are profound & opens the doors to further investigations & questions which must be done. I speak several different lanquages & must say the logic Dr. Fomenko uses with "inflection" of words & words being read from left to right in one region & right to left in another then written backwards, the removal of vowels & get down to basics of words, or different cities & locations having the same name etc. is correct. Vowel usage has always been optional & varied, actually complicating linquistics & study. The first thing one has to understand is that words never had a fixed spelling in history like we do now, the spelling of words was mutable & regional, as well as names & titles of people were vast, varied & changed, NOTHING WAS FIXED or understood linear. Matters of Life & Death as well as financial profiteering yesterday & today were & are made with ignorant, illogical & conspiratorial views of history & reality, it's time people get closer to the Truth & society collectively grow up.

Very Interesting.......2007-03-07

It is a good proposal and I believe it will mature into something even better in the future. I think it deserves to be read.

History as Science Fiction.......2007-01-10

Anatoly Fomenko has written a very intriguing book, full of pictures, charts, and computer 'proof' of his thesis: backwards of AD900 we don't really know what happened or when. Between AD900 and AD1600 there is more certainty, but there is still a lot of fuzzy ground, and things don't get reliable until we get past the 1600's where the printing press made it very difficult for the perpetrators of this timeline manipulation to change anything that had been committed to print. The Dark Ages did not happen. Books were burned for a reason. One organization has doubled the actual length of its existence by expanding the real chronology. Read why.

I had always wondered why Christ died about AD33 and yet men waited until the 11th century to form the Knights Templar, the Cathars, etc and go after the Holy Land by force. Why the 1000 year gap? Turns out there wasn't more than a 10-12 year gap and he proves it using astronomy. This also implies that the planet is not as old as we have been told, and current Christian and other creationist scientists are already championing that idea without being aware of Fomenko's book. The two groups, creationist scientists and the Russian mathematical analysts corroborate each other. Fascinating.

Of course, all this flies in the face of what we have been told traditionally is the 'proper' chronology of western civilization, and most readers will experience 'cognitive dissonance' in reading this book. It means that our history going backwards from AD1600 becomes progressively more incorrect and unreliable until it cannot be trusted at all... in the space of 700-800 years.

Naturally, the curious, open-minded reader will want to know WHO did this, WHY, and did any of the events we think of as really ancient ever happen?
Dr. Fomenko is a respected scientist/mathematician at Moscow State University who has already answered these questions to the satisfaction of his initially skeptical colleagues. Most of them are now believers, a few still refuse to believe (the usual diehards), and of course the western press has ignored Fomenko's work -- for obvious reasons when you read the book. The ones who perpetrated this chronology ruse have a lot to answer for. They are still with us. That's why this book is a well-kept secret.

I gave the book a 4-star rating because I was unable to check out some of his claims; those I checked were as he said. But if even 1/3 of his claims are true, this punches a big hole in what we think is our history, the meaning of western civilization, our educational process (for repeating the ruse as gospel), and the trustworthiness of the organization that perpetrated this ruse, well-intentioned or not.

This book relates to current research into a Young Earth paradigm, to John Keel's discoveries about our planet, and Fr Malachi Martin's insights (in his now out-of-print books). We are indeed sheep who are manipulated and kept ignorant -- for a reason. While knowing what these men have to say may be the "booby prize" (as in: 'what can you do with this knowledge?'), it will provide interesting reading. Didn't someone say: "...and the Truth will set you free."?? For you to judge if this book contains the truth.

Copy Cat-Don't but this book AND An Owners Guide to.............2002-01-20

I am extreamley disapointed in this book. I can't even tell you how upset I was to find out that a large portion of this book is taken verbatim from another book I ordered from Amazon called "An Owners Guide to a Happy Healthy Pet:The Maltese." The reason I bought the 2 books is because they were offered as a package deal from Amazon, and I essentially ended up with 2 of the same book. There are actual parts of this book that are taken WORD FOR WORD from the fore-mentioned book. I had to check to see if the author gave credit to the other author because I thought it might be plagerized. Inside the third page it said, in small print, "This book is a revised edition of "An Owners Guide to a Happy Healthy Pet:The Maltese." Granted there is a bit more information added and a few cute pictures but I do feel badly ripped off. So be forewarned before you buy both books; that they are nearly the same book. Also most of the information is related to puppies and adult dogs as a whole and not overly specific to the breed. There is an interesting history of the breed that I enjoyed, as well as an informative section on Maltese prone health problems. I would recommend a good puppy book for anyone interested in raising a Maltese puppy instead and find the remaining information on the breed on the internet. These books really haven't taught me more than I already learned through the internet and puppy books. Proceed with caution on this purchase.

great book. was my super hero!!.......2001-09-04

i was worrying because i was going to get a maltese but i didn't know how to train it. i got this book and when i got my maltese i tried the way it says in the book and it worked!! i really reccomend this book to maltese owners that don't know how to train and groom their maltese.

An excellent book about Maltese.......2000-04-21

This is an excellent book about the Maltese that is perfect for either someone who is bringing a new puppy home or a Maltese owner that just wants to learn more about the breed. It includes helpful advice on bringing a new puppy home and what to expect. There are chapters on food and nutrition, health care, excellent grooming instructions, breed standards, history of the breed and comprehensive behavior training. Included throughout the book are beautiful color photos. This is a must have book and definitely worthy of five stars!

Having bought several other Shih Tzu books, I didn't have great expectations of this one. I was wrong. This book provided information without "selling" useful products. Information on picky eaters, whelping and training was very useful.

HORRIBLE WASTE.......2007-04-20

Well, if you looking for a book on Chihuahua's, this is certainly NOT the book for you. Like a previous reviewer states, the book doesn't contain any useful information at all. It is all fluff. Anyone that knows how to search the Internet will find the same info. I would not waste your money on this useless book.

No good!.......2006-10-12

This book is nothing more than the published glorification of the Chihuahua breed. Not in-depth at all and has absolutely no value to someone who wants to take SERIOUS care of the animal. Might as well title it "The Essential Dog". Very general look at caring for dogs - as a whole! "Essentially" an unnecessary purchase.

The Essentia Chihuahua.......2000-06-15

The book looks like a great book im defanitly ordering it right away i love chihuahua's and this looks like a extremly good book on them.

What a cute book! How can anyone resist the beautiful and winsome Westie? Well, I suppose someone who hates animals might, but anyhow, aside from crazy people like that, I'd like to say that this book is really good, and the photos are very nice.

Fast read for setting expectations about your Westie........2007-03-08

This book is a "must read" for those who are new to West Highland Terriers or who are considering buying a Westie. They are a unique breed with their own pecular traits. Learning about them quickly will give you a clear picture of what to expect.

The book seems to be accruate with the possible exception that the Westie's learning curve is not quite as rapid as the book implies. They are an intelligent breed and very affectionate, while headstrong at the same time. Handling them effectively requires some homework on the owner's part.

This book is a good start!

An Essential book for Westie owners.......2002-01-16

As a breeder and lover of West Highland White Terriers, I picked
this little book to give to each of the families where I place my Westies.
There are many books out there on Westies and they are all good
but I wanted the new owners to have something for a quick-read,
that would equip them with essential facts about this breed of dog for a Westie is like no other dog.
They are in a class all to themselves.

This book does just that---gives the reader lots of information about the Personality, Homecoming, Health, Nutritious feeding program, Grooming, Breed Standard, History of the Westie, Behavior and Training.

I recommend this book highly to anyone contemplating getting a Westie. I never tire of reading it again and again and always
glean something that helps me be a better person with my Westies.

just about dogs.......2007-03-16

Nothing really special about australian shepherds in here. A lot of general information about dogs.

Its OK.......2006-04-13

The book does give a good quick overview for a new owner or someone considering the breed. I did find some useful information, some good training tips and the price was good for its content. I was looking for a bit more specific information, mainly on how much to feed this breed, which I did not find. This would be the type of book to check out from a library rather than a home resource.

Straight and to the point.......2006-03-11

This is a quick book to read, but although small has a lot of information packed into. Throught the streamlining of the book, the author and editors managed to also make it readable in a format that flows quickly. Great for potential owners of Aussies that do not have a lot of time to sit and read a longer or less readable book.

Essentially I have read all of this elsewhere.......2002-01-01

This is about the best book on the subject I have read with one exception. I would have given FIVE stars except for something about the title and content;I have read most all of it before VERBATIM. This book seems to have a different cover photo,a softcover vs.hardcover,different publication date,authored by "editors" vs. a specific person,and two seemingly separate publishers than The Australian Shepherd:How To Keep A HAppy Healthy Pet. This is the "revised" edition. It would have been nice to know that this more current{by two years!} edition was ESSENTIALLY the same book I already purchased! Why change the cover? Anyway,caveat emptor. I recommend the public library or the internet as additional sources of information contained in this book{s}. Got me this time.

The book that helped me with my first Aussie........1999-10-26

A great book for all the Aussie Shepherd lovers like me. Has everything from washing your dog to telling you if teaching your dog to heel is right.

You May Be Dissapointed.......2002-12-22

If you have the book 'The American Pit Bull Terrier' by Jacqueline O'Neil you will be very dissapointed with this book. The Essential Pit Bull is basically just a revision of the O'Neil APBT(American Pit Bull Terrier) book with different pictures and a tiny bit added(but mostly it's all just rearranged). The pictures are dissapointing too because they use the same people's dogs over and over again inside the same house. But if you do not have the APBT book by O'Neil and don't know if you want the Essential Pit Bull or the O'Neil APBT book just pick whichever one you like best(I like the one by O'Niel better myself, it's cuter) And if after your decision you decide to get a second Pit Bull book I reccomend Pit Bulls for Dummies(I don't know if this site sells it but Pets Mart does)it's my 5th Pit Bull book I'm reading and it's great (and funny). And if you just must get another Pit Bull book 'American Pit Bull Terriers/American Staffordshire Terriers' by Joe Stahlkuppe is a nice and even has beautiful drawings.

Great book for the first time owner.......1999-12-02

If you have just purchased your first pit bull or are just thinking about purchasing a pit bull, this is the book for you. I have owned two pit bulls for 6 months now and I purchased them without having any knowledge of the breed. They are great dogs and are eager listeners, but there are alot of things that I learned from the book that are very helpful. This book will definitely make better dogs and me a better owner. The title fits the book, "Essential" for all owners.

Think of this as an owner's manual for poodles. The book is aimed at those thinking about adopting or who have recently adopted a poodle. The history and characteristics of the poodle are highlighted, particularly the versatility of the breed. There are sections on preparing the home for a new puppy, feeding, health care, grooming, and training. There is lots of information here, for not much money.

Lots of good information for new dog parents........1999-03-11

I loved it, particularly because my dog is pictured in the book several times (see page 61 for my favorite shot). The editor has done a series of these books, one for each popular breed. Good how-to info and photographic examples of dog care and training.
