The Science of Time and Timeline of World History
Author: Sunil Sheoran
Publisher: Createspace Independent Publishing Platform
ISBN: 9781548381202
Category :
Languages : en
Pages : 486
Book Description
This book establishes the Vedic Science of Time, the rules of which are revealed for the very first time, and also establishes the true timeline of World History by examining and corroborating the ancient genealogies with known natural phenomena such as Solar & Lunar Eclipses and the Heliacal Risings of Venus and Sirius. The true timeline of five most ancient civilizations on Earth, that of Vedic India ( 3400 BCE), the Indus Valley ( 3300 BCE), Egypt ( 3100 BCE), Mesopotamia ( 2580 BCE) and the Biblical Hebrews ( 1740 BCE), has thus been established. It's also established that almost all these civilizations used the Vedic Calendar and have their ultimate origin in the Vedic Indian civilization. The dates of two great historical epics of India, that of Ramayana (1299 BCE) and Mahabharata (827 BCE), have also been established once and for all. Like a ray of light removes the darkness of ages, this book clears the reigning confusion on ancient history.

Book Description
“A revolution is happening in speculative fiction, and Annalee Newitz is leading the vanguard."--Wil Wheaton From Annalee Newitz, founding editor of io9, comes a story of time travel, murder, and the lengths we'll go to protect the ones we love. 1992: After a confrontation at a riot grrl concert, seventeen-year-old Beth finds herself in a car with her friend's abusive boyfriend dead in the backseat, agreeing to help her friends hide the body. This murder sets Beth and her friends on a path of escalating violence and vengeance as they realize many other young women in the world need protecting too. 2022: Determined to use time travel to create a safer future, Tess has dedicated her life to visiting key moments in history and fighting for change. But rewriting the timeline isn’t as simple as editing one person or event. And just when Tess believes she's found a way to make an edit that actually sticks, she encounters a group of dangerous travelers bent on stopping her at any cost. Tess and Beth’s lives intertwine as war breaks out across the timeline--a war that threatens to destroy time travel and leave only a small group of elites with the power to shape the past, present, and future. Against the vast and intricate forces of history and humanity, is it possible for a single person’s actions to echo throughout the timeline? Praise for The Future of Another Timeline: "An intelligent, gut-wrenching glimpse of how tiny actions, both courageous and venal, can have large consequences. Smart and profound on every level.”—Publishers Weekly (starred review) "You close the book reeling with questions about your own life and your part in changing the future."—Amy Acker, actress (Angel and Person of Interest) At the Publisher's request, this title is being sold without Digital Rights Management Software (DRM) applied.
