An Ultimate Christmas Gift - Stars Stones and Scholars

An Ultimate Christmas Gift - Stars Stones and Scholars

Are you looking for a gift for adults who already have everything?

Give them the book Stars Stones and Scholars
available here and here
and delight your family, friends, acquaintances and colleagues.

Before the advent of Judaism, Christianity and Islam, men studied the stars, and this ancient stargazing gave mankind its first conceptions of natural law (so Bertrand Russell).

Our prehistoric forefathers thought that God's abode was at the (apparently) immovable Center of Heaven.

Where is that home now?

Read Stars Stones and Scholars to understand the history of YOUR religion better.
