I really enjoyed this book - lots of little things that make you think, and some really basic things that you probably wouldn't know unless you have finished architecture school. As I am just starting out, I thought it was great. Good tips for crits, drawing, etc.

This book helped to get my 8 year old son into reading (he's now 10 and reads a lot). It also gave him historical info and background in a fun way. He's read most of the series and also listens to the CDs. Get the books from your local library. Great stuff!

This is just a quick thumbs up for the previous two reviews which sum up the book nicely. There is much food for thought and plenty of information for further reading. Some of the most interesting aspects for me were the descriptions of the ancient structures found in the pacific ocean. Undoubtedly the remnants of the lost civilisation of Lemuria that the inhabitants of Hawaii, South America and other pacific islands claim to have descended from in their 'myths'.

Well researched and very readable account of the archaeology of pre-Roman Britain. I found the early chapters especially interesting, e.g. the Boxgrove site showing the earliest evidence of human habitation in Britain 500,000 years ago, and the remarkable inventiveness of early hunter-gatherers. It did get a bit dry and technical at times in discussing the details of Neolithic and later monuments. The author also sometimes gets a little carried away in describing his or others' theories which seem to me perhaps a bit simplistic, e.g. the wood=life and stone=death theory of late Neolithic/early Bronze age monuments, verging on interpreting facts to fit the theory; the design of Iron age roundhouses mirroring the rising and setting sun also sounded too ...

This is a masterpiece and is the best and most authoratative book on the end of days I have encountered to date. It's all here with historical evidence to back it all up ~ What will happen in the future, we will only have to wait and see, but this book gives a good indication ~ See for yourself!

A fantastic, informative book, although lacking in religious discourse which formed much of ancient egyptian life. However, a marvellous reference book all the same. Would have been better in a larger format as difficult to read at times.

The Fall: The Insanity of the Ego in Human History and the Dawning of a New Eraby: Steve Taylor October 13, 2005 Best Selling > Books > Ancient History and Civilisation |

I thoroughly enjoyed reading this book. What it says seems to make sense on an intuitive level. I seem to be alone in not being entirely convinced by his arguements. I think particularly where he tries to relate things to evolutionary theory. An evolutionary process, rather like the biological one, using mechanisms similar to natural selection, certainly occurs. But these two processes are not identical, and I think the two get mixed up in here. However, maybe it's me that's mixed up.
The kind of book I would read more than once, if there were not so many other books out there waiting to be read. >>More Details |

The Synopsis is a fair description: "Region by region the Time Team select the most interesting and important sites..."
But what are these sites. How many do they describe in detail. Allow me to explain: In the book, Britain and Ireland is divided into 15 regions; 10 for England, Wales is one, Scotland in 2, and Ireland in 2. Then 2-4 sites are described in detail for each region, a total of 51 for the book, with two and occasionally four pages for each entry. Then in each region another 15 or so sites are very briefly described, with brief directions on how to drive to each, a total of 225 for the book. The contents page unfortunately does not list the 51 detailed sites so.. The Regions and the sites described in detail are: South west- Maiden castle, ... Read More: >>More Details |
