Produktbeschreibung

Human beings have come a long way just in the two thousand years since the birth of Christ - without even looking at the millions of years before that when we descended from the trees and descended into humanity. Most of the advances made before about 5,000 years ago were just associated with simple survival of the species; but since then humanity has started to look at the world around them with more challenging and questioning eyes. The result has given us some remarkable and momentous insights which have propelled humanity to the position of superiority and control it now enjoys over the rest of creation and the planet. This book looks at some of the most important developments that have brought us to this pinnacle. And some which have us looking even further out to the stars.

Autorenporträt

The prayer as a form of worship has been around for literally thousands of years. The Assyrians and Babylonians made prayers to their early pagan gods 5,000 years ago and the Jews prayed to Jehovah nearly 4,000 years ago. This book is concerned with Christian, and specifically Catholic, prayers. These derive from sources as old as the Bible and as recent as Pope John Paul II who was a prolific composer. Many prayers were devised by people whose authorship is lost in the mists of time.
