About the author

Greek: Έριχ φον Νταίνικεν

Erich Anton Paul von Däniken (1935–2026) was a Swiss author of several pseudoscientific books which made claims about extraterrestrial influences on early human culture, including the best-selling Chariots of the Gods?, published in 1968. Däniken was one of the main figures responsible for popularizing the "paleo-contact" and ancient astronauts hypotheses.

The ideas put forth in his books are rejected by virtually all scientists and academics, who categorize his work as pseudohistory, pseudoarchaeology, and pseudoscience. Early in his career, he was convicted and served time for several counts of fraud or embezzlement, and wrote one of his books in prison.

Libro probabilmente adatto ai lettori che si imbattono per la prima volta nelle tesi di Biglino (e Daniken). Per gli altri e' un po' una delusione, tanti argomenti trattati velocemente, nessuno veramente nuovo, insomma una specie di bigino o un libro di introduzione all'argomento.
