Meet the Book that Sparked a Major Controversy
Over the centuries, researchers have found bones and artifacts proving that modern humans have existed for millions of years. Mainstream science, however has suppressed these facts. Prejudices based on current scientific theory act as a "knowledge filter", giving us a picture of prehistory that is largely inaccurate.
