The long-awaited, controversial book on the miracles still hidden in our history. Astounding new theories on the origins of ancient civilizations and the discovery of the New World.

          What can explain the emergence of civilisations in Egypt, China, India and Mesopotamia within a few thousand years of each other, yet seemingly independently? The authors propose that these cultures were preceded by a yet older civilisation – that of the mysterious Ancients. A people whose culture was destroyed by a massive natural disaster – but whose influence in rituals and mythologies was to be far-reaching.

          Did Columbus merely "re-discover" America? The authors show that the explorer may have had knowledge of maps put together long before his time, depicting the New World in some detail. They produce in support of their claim the astonishing and little-known Glareanus map dating from the late fifteenth century.

          HIDDEN WORLDS is both remarkable and stimulating – it contains possible solutions to questions that have baffled scientists and historians everywhere.
