Hidden History, Secret Truth

Hidden History, Secret Truth proceeds from one assumption: the world is not what we think it is. This unique series of provocative essays exposes the fine line between truth and myth and challenges us to ask why we believe what we believe. And then asks, "What if we're wrong?" Could our entire worldview be a lie? Can reality can be thought of like light, as both a particle and a wave? Could there two realities? One which we see through our cultural looking glass, and another we simply don't believe in? Tortorich reveals just how alien our world appears when viewed outside our cultural worldview. Using "real life" examples, he takes us down the path not chosen, and imagines a world that could have been, but isn't. How did Nicola Tesla propose to deliver free, wireless electricity to the whole world a century before there was anything we needed an "alternative" to? Is the Internet nothing more than the technological realization of what mystics call the "Akashic records?" Do you have Pineal Envy? At times poignant. At times hilarious. At times absurd. Tortorich's out-of-the-box thinking poses questions that are at least as thought-provoking as the answers.
