This book investigates the disproportional effect of historically unconnected and random events like climate changes, imperial pursuits, pandemics, and nomadic migrations on our modern lives in the most unbelievable ways.
Will climate change wipe out and reset our world, as it did in 1700 BCE? How are the Rajputs of India related to the Kims of Korea? What startling parallels unveiled in China during the Mahabharata war? How was misogyny injected into our DNAs by a band of nomads? Uncover shocking secrets - as history meets suspense - in this mind bending book that will make you doubt everything from the past you thought you knew. Unravelling thread by thread.
