About the book: 2008 / The legend of the once sunken continent has haunted humanity for more than two thousand years, and the word “Atlantis” itself has become a symbol of an unsolvable mystery. The author of the book, Frank Joseph, based on the materials of a scientific conference (1997, Cambridge), in which the world's leading scientists participated, creates a completely new picture of the past. For the first time he talks about such events as the Atlantean wars, four global natural disasters, telling about the fate of the surviving inhabitants of the disappeared kingdom.
