    Daktari Obenga has done our ancestors proud with his very detailed gatherings and translations of the sheer brilliance of the ancient Egyptians. Obenga has taken a methodological approach to uncovering the philosophy we most often attribute to the West as having its genesis in Egyptian philosophical thought. He shows how some have tried to discount Egyptian philosophy as little more than potions, sayings and the like. Moreover, a closer read of the Book of Coming Forth...(Book of the Dead, colloquial) demonstrates the depth of the thought process of our ancestors. If that was not enough, Obenga then goes on to show in his methodological process, the sophisticated medical procedures the ancient Egyptians (as well as black Africa) were capable of operating. In fact, he shows how the Greeks learned from the very methods used by the Egyptians (Papyrus Ebers). Finally, Obenga references several of the papyri in private collections, bought from merchants over the past few centuries, referencing the mathematical capabilities of ancient Egyptians. The Papyrus Rhind, is one in particular which details several problems from calculating the area of a circle in a square with 4 rectangular isosceles to the use of co-tangent to calculate the angles for pyramid building. Overall, a fascinating read. I am thoroughly impressed.

    I enjoyed seeing photographs of a beautiful province that not enough people get the chance to visit. It was almost like being there.

    My Daughter bought this for a required course at JMU, and amazingly, she loved it. As she put it, the mix of mythology and ancient history made her enjoy the reading assignments. This is high praise from a computer nerd who seldom reads anything not connected to a video game or D & D.

James Acaster 2 Books Collection Set :

James Acaster"s Classic Scrapes:
James Acaster has been nominated for the Edinburgh Comedy Award five times and has appeared on prime-time TV shows like TASKMASTER, MOCK THE WEEK, LIVE AT THE APOLLO and WOULD I LIE TO YOU? But behind the fame and critical acclaim is a man perpetually getting into trouble. Whether it"s disappointing a skydiving instructor mid-flight, hiding from thugs in a bush wearing a bright red dress, or annoying the Kettering Board Games club, a didgeridoo-playing conspiracy theorist and some bemused Christians, James is always finding new ways to embarrass himself.Appearing on Josh Widdicombe"s radio show to recount these stories, the feature was christened "James Acaster"s classic scrapes". Here, in his first book, James recounts these tales (including never-before-heard stories) along with self-penned drawings, in all their glorious stupidity.

Perfect Sound Whatever:
PERFECT SOUND WHATEVER is a love letter to the healing power of music, and how one man"s obsessive quest saw him defeat the bullshit of one year with the beauty of another. Because that one man is James Acaster, it also includes tales of befouling himself in a Los Angeles steakhouse, stealing a cookie from Clint Eastwood, and giving drunk, unsolicited pep talks to urinating strangers.James Acaster wakes up heartbroken and alone in New York, his relationship over, a day of disastrous meetings leading him to wonder if comedy is really what he wants to be doing any more.
