Human Evolution Race

Discover an alternate history to the human race as the authors of Forbidden Archeology challenge one of the most fundamental components of the modern scientific world view. Michael Cremo and Richard Thompson discuss the work of researchers who, over the past 2 centuries, have found bones and artifacts showing that people like ourselves existed on earth millions of years ago.

Drawing on startling new evidence from the mapping of the genome, an explosive new account of the genetic basis of race and its role in the human story Fewer ideas have been more toxic or harmful than the idea of the biological reality of race, and with it the idea that humans of different races...

Where did the white race come from? Did Europeans descend from Neanderthals? Were the first Europeans dark-skinned? Did lighter skin evolve through climate adaptation? Is there any truth to claims that Europeans descended from African albinos? And how did the concept of the “Caucasian race” emerge in the first place? In Origins of the White Race, Frederick Amakom explores one of the most controversial and fascinating subjects in human history through the lenses of: genetics, anthropology, archaeology, ancient DNA, migration, climate adaptation, and racial theory. Drawing from modern ...

In The Invisible History of the Human Race, Christine Kenneally draws on cutting-edge research to reveal how both historical artifacts and DNA tell us where we come from and where we may be going. While some books explore our genetic inheritance and some popular television shows celebrate ancestry, this is the first book to explore how everything from DNA to emotions to names and the stories that form our lives are all part of our human legacy.

Presenting scientific evidence from diverse fields, including anthropology, biology, and psychology, Fuentes devises a myth-busting toolkit to dismantle persistent fallacies about the validity of biological races, the innateness of aggression and violence, and the nature of monogamy, sex, and gender. This revised and expanded edition provides up-to-date references, data, and analyses, and addresses new topics, including the popularity of home DNA testing kits and the lies behind ‘"incel" culture.

This dynamic chronicle of the race to find the "missing links" between humans and apes transports readers into the highly competitive world of fossil hunting and into the lives of the ambitious scientists intent on pinpointing the dawn of humankind. The quest to find where and when the earliest human ancestors first appeared is one of the most exciting and challenging of all scientific pursuits.

President Marcus Hale’s DNA lights up with markers older than civilization; engineered, serpentine, and never meant to surface. What begins as one impossible result explodes into a global emergency: a hidden genetic legacy carried by a select few of the world’s most powerful people is activating. As dormant sequences ignite under stress and adrenaline, pupils slit sideways, senses sharpen to predatory levels, and something ancient...

This book is divided into six sections that describe different aspects of our galactic roots. Part 1 gives us an introduction to our physical universe, which functions as a conscious universal computer. It is a playground for all types of entities created and guided by the Founders, Curators and various Councils. It has mineral entities that animate the planets, stars and galaxies that are evolving in the space around us, just like we are. Part 2 describes our human journey with life themes made of 64 gates that represent the I Ching language and relate to star maps that allow us to ...

The sixth "mass extinction event" in the history of planet Earth is currently under way, with over two hundred species dying off every day. The cause of this seismic event is also the source of the single biggest threat to human life: our own inventions. But for all our talk about sea levels and biotechnology, do we really know what our future will actually look like? Will our immune systems be attacked by so-called super bugs, always evolving, and more easily spread than ever? Will the disappearance of numerous species cripple the biosphere?

Have you ever thought about who you might be related to? What if we told you that you were related to extraordinary emperors, great kings and magnificent queens? Well, your majesty, you are.
