Decoding Hieroglyphs and Other Ancient Scripts is a fascinating journey into how archaeologists and language experts have unlocked the voices of long-lost civilisations. Written with clarity, warmth, and historical insight, this book brings to life the greatest codebreaking adventures in human history. From the majestic hieroglyphs of ancient Egypt to the wedge-shaped impressions of Mesopotamian cuneiform, from the elegant Mayan glyphs to the cryptic symbols of Linear B and Rongorongo, this book explores how some of humanity’s oldest writings were invented, used, lost—and then rediscovered.

This is an initiation into the tone, structure, and mentality of Egyptian knowledge, the basis of all Western theology and science. It is a redefinition of those concepts which are basic to the pharaonic transmission—the glory of ancient Egypt. The author explores the "process of becoming" as related to consciousness and revealed in nature; the kinship between man and the mineral, plant and animal kingdoms; the stages of awareness leading to "Cosmic Consciousness"; and the mystery of the formation of substance into matter.
