THE PERFECT READ FOR TROUBLED TIMES From the bestselling author of
The Story of the British Isles in 100 Places comes this inspiring
and beautifully written meditation on the wisdom inherited from our
ancestors. For all we have gained in the modern world, simple peace
of mind is hard to find. In a time that is increasingly fraught
with complexity and conflict, we are told that our wellbeing relies
on remaining as present as possible. But what if the key to being
present lies in the past? In Wisdom of the Ancients, Neil Oliver
takes us back in time, to grab hold of the ideas buried in
forgotten cultures and early civilizations. From Laetoli footprints
in Tanzania to Keralan rituals, stone circles and cave paintings,
Oliver takes us on a global journey through antiquity. A master
storyteller, drawing on immense knowledge of our ancient past, he
distils this wisdom into twelve messages that have endured the test
of time, and invites us to consider how these might apply to our
lives today. The result is powerful and inspirational, moving and
profound.
