OUR DOLPHIN ANCESTORS: KEEPERS OF LOST KNOWLEDGE AND HEALING WISDOM

Book ID/图书代码： 06568016B88487

English Summary/英文概要： Reveals the shared ancestry behind our affinity with dolphins and our shared destiny

• Explains how we are both descendants of the aquatic ape and still share many physiological features with dolphins that set us apart from other primates

• Explores dolphins’ communication with other species and how dolphin therapy has miraculous effects on people with autism, cancer, stroke, and depression

• Explores the connections between dolphins and Atlantis and Lemuria

Wild animals avoid contact with humans, but wild dolphins seek us out to play and socialize, even going so far as to voluntarily rescue people from drowning. What explains this remarkable natural affinity?

Revealing the evolutionary basis for our special relationship with dolphins, Frank Joseph explains how we are both descendants of the same ancient branch of human-ity. Building upon the aquatic ape theory, he details how we both began on land but devastating floods forced our distant ancestors into the seas, where humanity developed many of the traits that set us apart from other primates, such as our instinctive diving reflex and our newborns’ ability to swim. But while some of the aquatic apes returned to land, later evolving into modern humans, some remained in the cradle of Mother Ocean and became our dolphin cousins.

Integrating scientific research on dolphin intelligence, communication, and physiology with enduring myths from some of the world’s oldest cultures, such as the Aborigines, Norse, Greeks, and Celts, the author examines our physical commonalities with dolphins, including their vestigial thumbs and legs, birth processes, and body temperature. He explores dolphins’ uncanny ability to diagnose disease such as cancer in humans and how dolphin therapy has had miraculous effects on children with autism, victims of stroke, and those suffering from depression. He provides evidence for dolphins’ different attitudes toward men, women, and children, their natural affinity with cats and dogs, and their telepathic communication with other species, including ours. He explores dolphins’ mysterious role in the birth of early civilization and their connections with the Dog Star, Sirius, and Atlantis and Lemuria--a bond still commemorated by annual gatherings of millions of dolphins.

As Frank Joseph shows, if we can learn to fully communicate with dolphins, accessing their millennia-old oral tradition, we may learn the truth about humanity’s origins and our shared future, when humankind may yet again quit the land for a final return to the sea.

Chinese Summary/中文概要： 揭示了我们与海豚相似性背后的共同祖先和共同命运。

•解释了为什么我们都是水生猿的后代，以及我们与其他灵长类动物分离但依然与海豚有着许多生理特性。

•探索了海豚与其他物种的交流，以及海豚疗法对自闭症、癌症、中风和抑郁症患者的神奇影响。

•探索了海豚与亚特兰蒂斯和利莫里亚之间的联系。

野生动物避免与人类接触，但是野生海豚会来寻找我们玩耍和社交，甚至到目前为止依然自愿救助溺水的人。怎么解释这种非凡的自然亲和力？

揭示了我们与海豚特殊关系的演化基础，弗兰克•约瑟也解释了为什么我们都是人类同样古老的分支后裔。以水生猿理论为基础，他详细介绍了我们开始登上陆地，但毁灭性的洪水迫使我们的祖先进入海洋，人性发展了许多使我们与其他灵长类动物分离的特性，如我们的本能潜水反射和我们的新生儿游泳能力。但是当一些水生猿返回陆地，后来进化为现代人类，另一些则留在海洋的摇篮，成为我们的海豚。

将对海豚智力、沟通和生理能力的科学研究与来自如土著居民，挪威，希腊和凯尔特等世界上最古老文化的远古神话结合，作者探讨了我们与海豚的身理共性，包括退化的拇指和腿，生产过程和身体温度。也探讨了海豚诊断人类疾病如癌症的神奇能力，以及海豚疗法对自闭症儿童，中风患者和那些患有抑郁症的儿童的神奇影响。他提供了海豚对男人，妇女和儿童不同态度，它们与猫、狗的天然亲和力，以及它们与其他物种，包括我们心灵沟通能力的证据。他探索了海豚在早期文明诞生中的神秘作用，及它们与天狗星，天狼星，亚特兰蒂斯和利莫里亚的联系--这种联系仍然以每年数以百万的海豚聚会的形式纪念。

正如弗兰克•约瑟所示，如果我们能够学会充分与海豚沟通，了解它们千年来口述相传的传统，我们或许可以了解人类起源和我们共同未来的真相，当人类可能再次退出土地，最后回归大海。(LNL)

Awards/获奖情况：“A meticulously researched investigation of dolphins, with reference to ancient and modern encounters, that offers an exciting possibility for the future survival of humanity and the planet.” (David Jones, editor of New Dawn Magazine)

“Renowned author Frank Joseph’s newest probe into Earth’s ancient mysteries uncovers a major connection between people and dolphins, something that people close to the sea have often observed in myth and legend. He looks deeply into our common origins and into startling physiological features that we share uniquely. His amazing description of how dolphins can communicate and even heal people demonstrates the interconnectedness and interdependence of life, which humanity is only now beginning to grasp.” (Von Braschler, author of 7 Secrets of Time Travel)

“The amazing Frank Joseph reveals an entirely new link between dolphins and humans and raises questions that, if answered, could resolve some of the most deadly problems on this beleaguered planet and just might save our profoundly troubled species. This book is a truly unforgettable journey.” (Jeff Rense, syndicated national talk show host)

“Mesmerizing as the dolphins themselves! Only Frank Joseph, with his expansive global knowledge of history and true origins, could bring this masterpiece together. It is so well researched that it truly calls for a re-education of the public. I was captivated!” (Diana Palm, author of Setting Spirits Free)

“Joseph explains our biological characteristics that support an early aquatic phase of human development as an ‘aquatic ape.’ The facts are convincing, evolutionary theory is correctly applied, and the implications are fascinating. This thesis deserves media exposure and inclusion in academic curricula.” (Jay Stuart Wakefield, biologist and archaeological researcher)

“Having personally heard Frank Joseph speak on our mysterious connection to dolphins and the aquatic ape theory with revealing slides, I can heartily recommend his new book. The story is pretty compelling.” (New Dawn, Von Braschler, May 2016)
