You are surely now asking yourself why you are supposed to keep your hands off this book. Is it just a clever advertising strategy? Hardly so.

And the mainstream media too barely lets a day go by without warning the populace about the ideas of "Germany's most dangerous author of specialized books". Now Jan van Helsing is once again shaking up someone's world view - yours! The advice, "Don't touch this book!" absolutely was meant to be taken seriously. Because after reading this book, it won't be easy for you to continue living your life the way you have been. Today...
History's Mysteries is an absorbing and meticulously researched exploration of the archaeology, history, and mysteries of 35 ancient places worldwide. Haughton's book takes the reader on an unforgettable journey, from the 8,000-year-old stone circle of Nabta Playa to India's magical Taj Mahal; from Rhode Island's controversial Newport Tower to the enigmatic Royston Cave in the UK; from the strange medieval castle-village of Rennes-le-Ch�teau to the massive ancient walled city of Great Zimbabwe. Using the latest archaeological evidence, History's Mysteries explores: The incredible archaeological discoveries at the 11,000 year-old sanctuary of G�bekli Tepe in Turkey. The heated debate over the 47-million-year-old 'Ida Fossil'--could it be the missing link in our evolutionary history? The reality behind controversial ancient artifacts such as the Iron Pillar of Delhi, the Oak Island Treasure, and Egypt's "Dendera Lamps." What really happened to the Neanderthals? With 36 photographs and illustrations, this is the perfect reference work for those fascinated by the great mysteries of ancient history.
Out of Place Artifacts is a fascinating subject. There are too many of these unusual objects for them to be fakes. I’ve already written several books on this subject including “Strange Objects Which Should Not Exist”, “More Out of Place Objects”, and “A 300 Million Year Old Civilization Existed on Earth”. In this book I’ve compiled everything I could find out about these unusual finds from my prior three books and additional research. 54 artifacts are covered in detail. I’ve included all of this information except that specifically related to Aliens and UFOs since that information is in my books on those topics. The information here is presented in five parts: Part A: Artifacts Found in Historical Times Part B: Very Ancient Objects to Millions of Years Old Part C: A Civilization 300 Million Years Ago Part D: Human Footprints in Rock Part E: Artifacts of Undetermined Ages I hope you find all of this information as interesting as I do since it changes our understanding of the history of our planet in incredible ways.
"Pre-Astronautics versus Science" allows a daring look through a state-of-the-art lens at archaeological finds and modern theories. This book is an invitation to think beyond the textbook and explore the hidden chapters of our history. It is for the curious, the skeptics, and the visionaries – for all who are ready to delve into the mysteries of our existence. Step into another world where the inexplicable meets the quest for truth, and the paths of facts and speculation cross. As Horst Kaltenhauser said: "Speculation is the spark that ignites the fire of research." Join us on an exciting journey and discover a world full of fascinating possibilities.
Tibetan Buddhist writings frequently state that many of the things we perceive in the world are in fact illusory, as illusory as echoes or mirages. In Twelve Examples of Illusion, Jan Westerhoff offers an engaging look at a dozen illusions--including magic tricks, dreams, rainbows, and reflections in a mirror--showing how these phenomena can give us insight into reality. For instance, he offers a fascinating discussion of optical illusions, such as the wheel of fire (the "wheel" seen when a torch is swung rapidly in a circle), discussing Tibetan explanations of this phenomenon as well as the findings of modern psychology, and significantly clarifying the idea that most phenomena--from chairs to trees--are similar illusions. The book uses a variety of crystal-clear examples drawn from a wide variety of fields, including contemporary philosophy and cognitive science, as well as the history of science, optics, artificial intelligence, geometry, economics, and literary theory. Throughout, Westerhoff makes both Buddhist philosophical ideas and the latest theories of mind and brain come alive for the general reader.

The world-famous bestseller Chariots of the Gods introduced the theory that ancient Earth had established contact with aliens. Now, Erich von Däniken’s The Eyes of the Sphinx reveals startling evidence that could prove it. Erich von Däniken's theory of alien contact with the ancient world is so incredible, yet so logical and convincing, that it has become part of a wide-ranging debate that continues to this day. His claims that an alien race helped create the pyramids of Egypt were based upon the ruins themselves. And it is these ruins that now provide researchers with a never-ending source of clues, compelling discoveries, revelations, and evidence that Earth was indeed colonized by an alien race.
Zahlreiche Forscher, Sachbuchautoren und auch namhafte Wissenschaftler, haben sich vorwiegend im zwanzigsten Jahrhundert, im „Zeitalter der Raumfahrt“, mit der Idee von den „Göttern aus dem All“ auseinandergesetzt. Es ist eine Idee, die aus der Fachliteratur nicht mehr wegzudenken ist. Das Buch ist eine neue und aktualisierte Bestandsaufnahme zu der Frage: Waren die Götter Astronauten? Es behandelt auch verwandte Gebiete wie die UFO-Forschung und Atlantis. Eine Suche nach Artefakten von außerirdischen Intelligenzen ist nicht a priori unwissenschaftlich. Sie reiht sich ein in die bekannte Suche nach Signalen von außerirdischen Intelligenzen, SETI. In Anlehnung daran prägte der Autor im Jahre 1992 den Begriff SAETI, die Suche nach Artefakten von außerirdischen Intelligenzen (Search for Artifacts of Extraterrestrial Intelligences).

Es war schon immer der große Traum eines jedes Einzelnen durch die Zeit reisen zu können. Sei es aufgrund von Besichtungstouren an historische Orte in der Vergangenheit, zu wissenschaftlichen Zwecken, oder einer Änderung von Geschehnissen. Viele Menschen würden Zeitreisen aber wohl zur eigenen Bereicherung begehen. Wer würde sich nicht am liebsten die Zahlen der nächsten Lotto-Ziehung aus der Zukunft besorgen, oder mit sich selbst in der Zukunft telefonieren? Doch Zeitreisen sind auch mit vielen Problemen behaftet. Die größte Gefahr droht durch Paradoxien, die das ganze Raumzeit-Kontinuum gefährden könnten. Einer dieser Paradoxien betrifft das Muttermord-Paradoxon. Dieses Buch beschäftigt sich mit Fragen in Bezug auf Zeitreisen und deren Durchführbarkeit, deren mögliche Nutzen und vor allen Dingen deren Auswirkungen. Immerhin gibt es jede Menge an interessanten Zeit-Paradoxien.
