“Schoch is a true scientist, following the data wherever it leads, heedless of political pressures or worn-out paradigms. Twenty-two years ago, his redating of the Sphinx launched the New Archaeology. Forgotten Civilization distills all that has happened since into a simple conclusion: that solar activity ended the last cycle of high culture and may destroy ours in turn. Schoch is no scaremonger, no hawker of a pet theory. What we do with this knowledge is up to us, but once digested, it changes everything.”
(Joscelyn Godwin, Ph.D., senior faculty member at Colgate University)

The publisher of Forgotten Civilization (Inner Traditions) recently posted to Youtube three short video clips of an interview they conducted with me about the book (each is about 5 minutes), should you wish to hear a little:
