Aplya Purvajanche Tantradnyan By Niranjan Ghate

विज्ञान आणि तंत्रज्ञान क्षेत्रातील व्यक्तींबद्दल सामान्य माणसांच्या मनात नेहमीच कुतुहल असतं. शास्त्रज्ञांचा विक्षिप्तपणा, त्यांची एककल्ली वृत्ती संशोधकांची धडपड, पेटंट मिळाल्यानंतर एकाच पेटंटवर अमाप श्रीमंत बनलेल्या संशोधकांची कहाणी, ह्या गोष्टी सत्य हे कल्पनेपेक्षा अद्भुत असतं, हे पटवून देतात. त्यामुळं अशा व्यक्ती घडल्या कशा? हे जाणून घ्यायचीही आपल्या मनात इच्छा असते. ह्या पुस्तकामध्ये अशा मान्यवर शास्त्रज्ञ आणि संशोधकांच्या बाबतीतलं कुतुहल शमविण्याची क्षमता आहे. त्याच बरोबर ह्यामुळं तरुण वाचकांना आपणही; असं काहीतरी करायला काय हरकत आहे, असं वाटावं, ही अपेक्षाही लेखकाला वाटते. त्याच दृष्टीनं हे पुस्तक वाचावं, असं मात्र नाही. ह्या शास्त्रज्ञांची धडपड वाचून वाचकाची करमणूकही होईल. त्यामुळंही वाचकानं हे पुस्तक वाचायला हरकत नाही. . BERMUDA TRIANGLE;THE POWER OF PYRAMIDS;ATOM BOMBS;AEROPLANES IN THE TIMES OF THE MAHABHARAT, WHETHER OUR GODS WERE THE PERSONS COMING HERE FROM THE OTHER PLANETS? ARE TYPICAL QUESTIONS DEFINITELY ASKED DURING SCIENCE LECTURES. THE LECTURER TRIES TO REPLY THESE DEFINITE QUESTIONS ACCORDING TO HIS ABILITY AND CAPACITY; HE SAYS ALL THIS IS HUMBUG. HOWEVER, WHATEVER HE HAS READ IS USELESS, HE DARE NOT ADMIT. AFTER 1965, BOOKS MENTIONING THAT MOST OF THE SCIENCE THAT WE SEE AND EXPERIENCE TODAY WAS INVENTED AND DISCOVERED LONG BEFORE BY OUR ANCESTORS. THE BOOK BY GEORGE ADANSKI CONTAINS ALL THE TOPICS MENTIONED ABOVE. PEOPLE WHO BELIEVE IN THESE BOOKS, ARE NOT READY TO BELIEVE IN THOSE WHO ARE ACTUALLY DOING DEEP RESEARCH IN THIS FIELD. THEY ARE STUDYING THE THINGS THAT ARE FOUND IN THE EXCAVATION VERY CAREFULLY. SO, REALLY SPEAKING, WE SHOULD BELIEVE IN THESE SCHOLARS (EGYPTOLOGISTS, ARCHEOLOGISTS, POLYETOLOGISTS ETC;), AS THEY HAVE EVIDENCES AND PROOFS. HOW AND WHY? ALL THIS IS INCLUDED IN THE TWO BOOKS UNDER REVIEW VIZ. `OUR ANCESTORS AND THEIR SCIENCE` AND `OUR ANCESTORS AND THEIR TECHNOLOGY` WRITTEN BY SHRI. NIRANJAN GHATE. SHRI.
