Nevertheless, when their new companions begin to mysteriously disappear, the group is once again thrown into a desperate struggle for survival, where only the most cunning and relentless will prevail.

National Book Award Finalist: “This man’s ideas may be the most influential, not to say controversial, of the second half of the twentieth century.”—Columbus Dispatch At the heart of this classic, seminal book is Julian Jaynes's still-controversial thesis that human consciousness did not begin far back in animal evolution but instead is a learned process that came about only three thousand years ago and is still developing. The implications of this revolutionary scientific paradigm extend into virtually every aspect of our psychology, our history and culture, our religion—and indeed our future. “Don’t be put off by the academic title of Julian Jaynes’s The Origin of Consciousness in the Breakdown of the Bicameral Mind. Its prose is always lucid and often lyrical…he unfolds his case with the utmost intellectual rigor.”—The New York Times “When Julian Jaynes . . . speculates that until late in the twentieth millennium BC men had no consciousness but were automatically obeying the voices of the gods, we are astounded but compelled to follow this remarkable thesis.”—John Updike, The New Yorker “He is as startling as Freud was in The Interpretation of Dreams, and Jaynes is equally as adept at forcing a new view of known human behavior.”—American Journal of Psychiatry

Opulent eastern cities were still reeling from Alexander's devastating conquests when Pytheas the Greek adventurer quietly slipped moorings at Massalia in southern Gaul to face the unknown ocean and explore the remote north. Pytheas the adventurer, who rounded Britain and even ventured as far as the Baltic Sea so long ago, is a fascinating enigma. What inspired him to do it? Adventure? Trade? The pursuit of knowledge? Or had he personal reasons? Not only an educated adventurer who survived to write two books, Pytheas was surely young to embark on such a gruelling and hazardous expedition.He was also clearly familiar with celestial navigation and ships - as would any merchant who traded out of Massalia. Only fragments and reference to his accounts remain, yet such were his revelations that 200 years on the Roman geographer Strabo, who never went beyond the straits of Sicily, called him a lying fantasist...because Pytheas also claimed to have ventured far beyond Britain to a mysterious place called Thoule. Not only were his astronomical observations there used by ancient scholars to prove that the earth was a sphere, tantalising hints reveal what else Pytheas recorded of that extraordinary three year expedition. But what of Pytheas the man? Who went with him? How did they travel such distances - and get by hostile Phoenicians who controlled access to the great ocean?
