The subject matter is excellent and Sepehr has been very comprehensive leaving no stone unturned。 Unfortunately, the editing was very poor。 Paragraphs were repeated。 The extent of information was inconsistent。 For example, the already verbose introduction featured an unnecessary breakdown of the chemical composition of a species of fungi。 Sepehr needs to do another edition to reach this book's full potential。 The subject matter is excellent and Sepehr has been very comprehensive leaving no stone unturned。 Unfortunately, the editing was very poor。 Paragraphs were repeated。 The extent of information was inconsistent。 For example, the already verbose introduction featured an unnecessary breakdown of the chemical composition of a species of fungi。 Sepehr needs to do another edition to reach this book's full potential。 。。。more
Bobby Daugherty,
A quick read, but if you are familiar with his work you know what to expect。 This one provides a lot of references to look into to gain a deeper insight into what he discusses and that is sort of the appeal to me。 He discusses a concept and provides some material that may not be as well known as what you will find at a regular library or bookstore。
Hammer of truth,
Riveting read。 Very intriguing and eye opening。 Highly recommended!
Abdur Mohammed,
Thought provoking insights into our past。 Worth a read, whether you agree with the subject matter or not。 Keeping an open mind may be the only thing which allows true progress。
Lemur,
By the title, you might think that Gods with Amnesia: Subterranean Worlds of Inner Earth would contain an analysis of the topic of inner Earth, its inhabitants, its formation, some speculation, and coverage of science contradicting the theory。 For instance, I hoped to learn a geological explanation of how a hollow Earth could come to be; how any torus-shaped planets could be formed。 This is not that kind of book。 A more accurate title for this book would be “White people were spawned from inner By the title, you might think that Gods with Amnesia: Subterranean Worlds of Inner Earth would contain an analysis of the topic of inner Earth, its inhabitants, its formation, some speculation, and coverage of science contradicting the theory。 For instance, I hoped to learn a geological explanation of how a hollow Earth could come to be; how any torus-shaped planets could be formed。 This is not that kind of book。 A more accurate title for this book would be “White people were spawned from inner Earth (making them genetically distinct from everyone else*) *Not supported by science or genetics” If you are a white nationalist with no scientific or literary background, you will love this book!Sepehr compiled a disjointed collection of factoids, rumors, fiction, and myth。 Lacking the prose of a memoir (or maybe writing talent) it is not always apparent how the provided information relates to the thesis。 Think: C+ freshman research project。 The factoids offer unnecessary biological facts。 You know, science-y stuff like types of moss or species of bat inhabiting a particular cave。 The rest of the book relies on fiction, myth, and rumors。 No explanation of the source of the rumors or their credibility is attempted。 In one instance he provides “top secret maps” that were originally obtained by the KGB from the Third Reich and recently leaked on the internet。 (p。56) The authenticity of these maps is not evaluated and their source (which websites they are found on) is not described。 Citations are provided for some statements and quotations。 Some of these cite Sepehr’s own works。The strangest thing here was not the concept of an inner Earth or the random, unrelated information regarding pygmy myths。 It was the promotion of concepts that eerily support white nationalism that I found most disturbing。 For example, he states that the Roman empire “sank into multicultural decline。” (p。138) This was a peculiar way to describe the decline of Rome。 I didn’t think much of it until I later remembered what he wrote on page 51: the Sumerians and other early societies “governed through an elite Aryan Rh-negative bloodline, and employed a segregated caste system; interracial cross-breeding (race mixing) was strictly taboo”。 This statement is followed by two citations that each refer to documents authored by Sepehr himself。 This glimpse into the author’s opinions suggests a white nationalist sentiment is at play here。 It becomes more evident when the author sympathizes with Adolf Hitler stating, “There are persisting rumors that Germany had developed the atomic bomb before the Allies, but Hitler refused to use the weapon of mass destruction against entire Aryan populations。” (p。 53) Again, the source and validity of these rumors is not evaluated。Sepehr’s weak grasp on science is laughable。 He claims to have been “academically educated in anthropology”, whatever that means。 The book’s jacket dares to describe him as an anthropologist。 His understanding of science is brought into question by his obvious ignorance of how evolution works。 On page 147 he states, “In ancient cultures around the world, one never finds legends or myths about people descending from apes。” Anyone with a scientific background (or a child who took a biology class) can tell you that humans did not evolve from apes。 We share an ancestor with apes, which was not actually an ape。 A person with a scientific degree would never carelessly fumble this distinction due to the fact that so much ignorance stems from this erroneous narrative。 He also claims that the out-of-Africa theory of paleoanthropology is “politically correct egalitarian propaganda” disseminated by “organizations with globalist agendas, such as the United Nations”。 I guess I just don’t get where right-wing conspiracy theorists are coming from。 If you're looking for a good book about the hollow Earth theory, this is not it。 I regret that I paid money for this “book”。 I hope this warning prevents you from making the same mistake。 Of course, if you’re a paranoid white nationalist who cares more about narrative than fact, you may want to pick this one up! 。。。more
