Product Description
Andrew Tomas makes many intriguing claims about the knowledge of man's early civilizations. Ancient Chinese and Greeks meddled with automatons, cybernetics, and robotics, and ancient Hindus, Greeks, and Egyptians had electrical devices including electric lights in his chapter "Electricity in the Remote Past." Far-fetched and controversial but still fascinating reading today.
