Summary

When Chariots of the Gods was published 50 years ago, it began a worldwide change in humanity's view of the cosmos. In an era of the military space race, Erich von Daniken boldly proclaimed that Earth had been visited by more advanced beings early in our history. But prescientific man had no concept of spaceships, so he called their vehicles "chariots", and those driving the chariots became "gods".

Over the next five decades, von Daniken's 32 books built an ever-stronger case for Earth being visited by extraterrestrial visitors. And Chariots became an international best seller, with 30 million copies sold in more than two dozen languages. Also during that time, the case for ET visitations millennia ago was being reexamined by contemporary UFO researchers, who found evidence of modern visitations. And von Daniken expanded his perspective to encompass the present.

Now he presents his long-awaited sequel to Chariots of the Gods, proclaiming that the gods never left us, with all-new material to show that ancient aliens are still with us.

The Gods Never Left Us contends that recent advancements in biotechnology, astrophysics, engineering, and artificial intelligence not only give us a fresh perspective on his ancient astronaut theory but actually validates it. We are - as a race - embarking on the exact same trajectory of our own interplanetary colonization, just as von Daniken suggested Earth itself was colonized.

ETs are definitely at work today. And that affects all of us.

Much new for non followers ;-)

But a very well narrated summary of a lifetime of work of the author, whom I have always regarded as an honest man - i.e. not lying for profit. If he is making it all up.. Where is the hailstorm of convincing disproves ?
Has Von Daniken ever been honestly disproved on central subjects ?
Not sure if the learning curve is a bit too steep in this summary - for newcomers to the author - who will probably find the subjects discussed rather esoteric :-)
I enjoyed it very much. Especially towards the end. And it's not too terribly long ;-)
Recommend..
