Product Description

Paradigm Shift Magazine, June 2007
From beginning to end, this book will hold your attention and make
you yearn for more when the last page is turned. Well written with clean
citations, this book is more than a good read! It is a must have for anyone
searching for a greater understanding of their spiritual roots. It is sure
to set a benchmark for those seeking truths beyond conventional spiritual
notions and beliefs.

Nexus New Times Magazine, June/July 2007
In combining her knowledge of pre and ancient history with
mythology and spiritual philosophy, June Austin speculates in Genesis of
Man on who we are, where we came from and where we're heading. Austin makes
the case for our souls being interconnected with the Divine source, our
role in this world being to learn to balance the light and the dark within
ourselves. The more aware we are of our Divine heritage, the more connected
we are with humanity as a whole and the more able we are to exercise
forgiveness and compassion to our fellow man. The way home comes by getting
in touch with the silence within, not by blind faith in a priesthood or
religious buildings and ceremonies.

5.0 out of 5 stars Revelations, 9 Jun 2007
By Mr. John Timbers (Bean, Kent, England, UK) - See all my reviews
(REAL NAME)   
"Do not believe anything because it is said by an authority, or if it is said to come from angels, or from gods, or from an inspired source. Believe it only if you have explored it in your own heart and mind..."
This quotation from the sayings of Gautama Buddha, is to be found in the introductory pages of June Austin's masterly work and should be borne in mind throughout its 248 pages from the prologue to the end.
June has undertaken the mammoth task of checking out many of the theories of the development of mankind and religious beliefs that have been circulating amongst interested intellectuals since time out of mind and which, in the last twenty or so years, have brought about a veritable rash of books claiming definitive proof of this that or the other theory, usually - but not always - linked to conspiracy theories about suppression of facts by - particularly - established religion.
In "Genesis of Man" she has brought together her well-researched findings in one compact and fascinating book. It took her five years of painstaking reading and detective work to get it all down on paper and, I suspect, a much longer journey of self-exploration before taking the leap into print.
She has not been afraid to question many of the theories backed by authorities such as established religions, egyptology, archaeology, biology and geology. Her reasoning from facts that have come to light recently from many sources - all meticulously noted - is hard to fault, unless one comes from that well-known school of debate that maintains that sticking your fingers in your ears and shouting ever louder wins the day.
June advances the `teachings' of what she would call `channeled sources', meaning the explanations produced by people who claim contact with the spirits of those who have gone before - spiritualists, psychics and `walk-ins'. She herself lightly mocks her own beliefs, admitting that many will reject them as `lunatic fringe'. Each to his own.
I cannot claim any spiritual experience that would convince me that reincarnations of gods or angels are channeling true versions of our hitherto unknown prehistory to us. Nor am I able to put much credence into conspiracy theories concerning suppression of `facts' about such events as the reported `Roswell' UFO crash and other similar phenomena, however good the story - I write as an ardent Sci-Fi buff, who never misses a new TV series or book that features space travel and alien contacts - fairy stories for adults; pure light relief!
I do not dismiss out of hand theories that the development of homo sapiens sapiens could have been due to interference by extra-terrestrials. Myth and legend - amongst peoples who could never have had any contact - has survived from many thousands of years before written records ever came into being. They cannot simply be dismissed as fairy tales, when common themes are too many to be written off as pure coincidence.
In this book you will explore theories of the nature of the gods, the existence and origins of a super-race pre-dating the Sumerians and how they could have influenced the races of mankind in different parts of the world, giving them the knowledge necessary for survival - agriculture, astronomical mathematics and mutual dependence - in perilous times. You will meet characters of whom you have never heard before. You will explore the facts behind Dan Brown's fictional treatment of the Knights Templar, the Merovingian blood-line of the French kings, the Sang Réal and the Holy Grail - "The Da Vinci Code".
You may take some of June's `facts' with a pinch of salt, but you won't put her book down without being touched by her gentle exposition of how we are supposed to interpret the teachings that have come down to us from the `true prophets'. Whether you follow the tenets of established religion or none, you will find in this book something that will give you pause for thought.

5.0 out of 5 stars Genesis of Man delivers on its promises..., 20 April 2008
Who would have the nerve to sub-title a book: Life, the Universe...and Everything in Between?
June Austin, that's who. And she lives up to her promise. Genesis of Man captures the imagination from the Prologue to the very last pages of this book from Authors Online. And along the way, you had better fasten your seat belts, because you are in for a ride. From the Riddle of Creation through to Lost Secrets the authors of the Bible left out, Austin will have you turning pages 'til your coffee gets cold, and then the next, and the next.
In many ways, Genesis of Man is not one but two books: the "first" explores the origins of life on this planet (and others) while the latter part of the book looks at many aspects of Christianity that the Church Fathers somehow managed to miss out.
Extensively researched and entertainingly written, Genesis of Man is by far the most intriguing book I've read in many a year.

5.0 out of 5 stars An epiphany!, 13 April 2007
By paramour (Grand Haven, Michigan USA) - See all my reviews
I found this book quite by accident and I call that Divine intervention! This book has really changed the way I think about the truth of who we are, where we are going, and why we are here. June's writing style and clear and concise citations make this so much more than a good read - this book is certain to become a leaning tool in the future of our spiritual awakening! If you are searching for more and are ready to start thinking outside of the box where our origins are concerned, then this book is a must read for you! From the fist words when you open this book until the last page has turned and you close the cover, you will be wanting more from June Austin!
