(More customer reviews)A great new approach to civilizations. It starts by developing a genetics foundation for civilizations and then develops a math theory with lots of explanatory diagrams that show an amazing pattern that all civilizations seem to follow - not just European and Asian civilizations but also isolated African and American civilizations. This incredible theory predicts the general future of civilizations. It seems to have predicted recent trouble areas such as the Mideast and the Far East. It describes the dynamics of interacting civilizations and cultures. It predicts the response of human civilizations should SETI contact an ET civilization. A great book. It covers all bases on civilizations. Actually makes a great reference book since it covers the history of most of the world's civilizations.

The book shows that a long-term social behavior pattern of mankind (based on four generation trends) causes civilizations to develop and "oscillate" in patterns of routs and rallies. Civilizations rise and fall due to their internal human dynamics. The theory of civilization is developed using equations and 68 diagrams that show a close detailed match between the theory and the actual history of all known Asian, European and African civilizations over the last 5,500 years. The theory projects the future of today's civilizations (including the future of Western and Islamic civilizations).It also successfully describes the interaction of barbarians and civilizations, the interaction of two civilizations, the impact of modern technology on civilizations (it accounts for the Luddite reaction to the Industrial Revolution), the impact of major environmental events on civilizations (e.g. the collapse of Minoan civilization due to a volcanic eruption), and the disintegration of civilizations. It also accounts for the tremendous growth phases seen in many civilizations such as the building of the great pyramids in Egyptian civilizations. Based on the theory fifteen new civilizations are identified including new prehistoric Chinese and Egyptian civilizations.
