What They're Saying
Critics Review
“China’s Cosmological Prehistory takes the next step in comparing the creation traditions of ancient cultures. In it, Scranton demonstrates how cross-cultural comparisons can lead us to new insights about the possible meanings of obscure ancient myths and symbols.” * Walter Cruttenden, author of Lost Star of Myth and Time *
“Yet another important piece to Scranton’s ongoing quest to prove that a near identical cosmology was common knowledge around the entire globe in ancient prehistory. Perhaps the ‘single language’ posited in the Book of Genesis, the ‘language’ that once ‘united all mankind,’ was not mere fabrication and/or wishful thinking after all. It was cosmology as Scranton again demonstrates.” * John Anthony West, author of Serpent in the Sky *
“Laird Scranton’s research into cosmological historical frameworks is profound, diligent, and meticulous. Not only does he unveil the underpinnings of significant lexicons and high science, but he reveals how they weave synchronicities and commonalities across unexpected demographics in a pioneering way. The sensational revelation is at the very least a common original source. In China’s Cosmological Prehistory another awe-inspiring wealth of realization is brought to the forefront with an academic style and unique perspective. Undoubtedly, the importance of Scranton’s continued work and research in this book and previous works will be revered by future generations of researchers.” * E. A. James Swagger, author and radio host *
