Produktbeschreibung
Tens of thousands of years before the splendors of Greece and Rome, a transitional culture of unknown humans, a bridge between Neanderthal and Homo Sapiens, known as Aurignacian produced pictorial art of such astonishing sophistication and beauty that for more than 15,000 years, until the Egyptian dynasties, nothing remotely as transcendent was produced. Christopher Parks, aspiring author, and self-professed authority on the Incan empire, is recovering from a catastrophic divorce, and utterly mystified as to why Rhonda Byrne's The Secret, a book he sees as a rehash of Dr. Norman Vincent Peale's, The Power of Positive Thinking, is so incredibly successful. Are people really that easily manipulated? Perhaps the answer lies in an understanding of the unknown artistic geniuses who painted the walls of the Cave of Altamira, Lascaux and others.
