"A book wonderful to read and startling to contemplate....both the history of science and the reinterpretation of myths have been enriched immensely."--Washington Post

A seminal work of scientific and philosophical exploration. Ever since the Greeks coined the language we commonly use for scientific description, mythology and science have developed separately. But what if we could prove that all myths have one common origin in a celestial cosmology? What if the gods, the places they lived, and what they did are but ciphers for celestial activity, a language for the perpetuation of complex astronomical data?

Drawing on scientific data, historical and literary sources, the authors argue that our myths are the remains of a preliterate astronomy, an exacting science whose power and accuracy were suppressed and then forgotten by an emergent Greco-Roman world view. This fascinating book throws into doubt assumptions of Western science about the unfolding development and transmission of knowledge. This is a truly seminal and original thesis, a book that should be read by anyone interested in science, myth, and the interactions between the two.

Inadequate
Have had the brush for 2 weeks. Brushed 7 pieces of my macrame project. Half the brush have sunken behind the rubber part of the brush, unusable. I used pliers to pull out some of the wire brush part. Not sure it will be sufficient to do the jobs I purchased it for.

100% in love ❤️
Color: Champagne Fawn, Size: 60"x80"
If you're on the fence about this blanket like I was, I can confidently tell you - Just buy it! This blanket has become my new emotional support blanket. Immediately out of the box I knew this was going to be luxurious. You can Immediately feel the incredible softness and weight, with the visual attention to detail and beautiful coloration. This blanket was definitely well made and worth the price. I can't get enough of the touch and feel of the faux fur, it is beyond soft and tranquil. I sometimes use it in place of my bed comforter because of how amazing it feels on the skin. It is quite hefty, with an estimated weight of 10 pounds with the 60 x 80 size, but I feel as though it adds to the luxurious comfort. I also love how it will keep you warm, but it won't make you sweat. It still has a cooling effect. You will not regret buying this blanket - Treat yourself!

Talk about SOFT!!!
Color: Champagne Fawn, Size: 50"x60"
Definitely a premium product! Softness is a 10/10 very little shedding and the stitching is solid. Medium to heavy weighted throw blanket. Picture is exactly what u get in person. It’s very cool to the touch and again so soft and dense. I lay with it on me watching tv and it’s definitely a sensory thing, I can’t stop touching it. Best blanket I ever had. The material underneath is very soft as well and keeps you warm. I bought the matching pillow case and it’s equally just as good. In my opinion it’s worth the money if u have it to spend. I plan on getting the bigger size blanket on prime day.

GORGEOUS!
Color: Champagne Fawn, Size: 60"x80"
Large and durable faux fur that is heavy and keeps you warm. It is so soft and fluffy. Super good quality and I love the champagne color. The cotton content is perfect and feels extremely soft on the skin. The price is high even though I bought it on sale. The value is worth it and I will buy another one when it goes on sale!

Super soft
Color: Brown Sable, Size: 60"x80"
I bought this last year as a gift for myself. Im such a sucker for blankets and honestly have way too many. I love the heaviness of this blanket. The size of it is great as a throw for the end of my bed or to pull over me if I get cold. It can tend to get a bit hot with being so thick. I love that it doesn't shed all over the place is great quality. This bla ket is super soft and looks amazing where its laying as a throw piece. It does have a bit of weight to it and makes you feel super comfortable laying under it. The scent of it was a bit weird coming straight out of the package, but once opened and had time to air out it was fine. I love this bla ket and would absolutely buy it again!
