Summary/Abstract |
The Encyclopedia of the Unexplained contains comprehensive information about mysterious and paranormal eventsl. Even in today's scientifically and technologically oriented world, many events and ancient mysteries, such as crop circles, ghosts, the Holy Grail and the Nazca Lines, remain unexplained, with many theories stirring both the imagination and scientific fact. Some famous enigmas, such as The Bermuda Triangle, have now been explained by science, but still hold an allure of mystery. The Encyclopedia of the Unexplained will also uncover some of our ancient superstitions and symbols, from why black cats are lucky and how Feng Shui is supposed to change life for the better.
