There is no convincing evidence to sup- port the claims of the medical-pharmaceu- tical establishment that 'mental illness- es'—such as schizophrenia, depression, manic-depression, panic disorder, obses- sive-compulsive disorder or attention deficit disorder—are physical or genetic and can be cured by drugs or ECT.

This amazing book is the first ever writ- ten about the archetype of the Poles— celestial, terrestrial, North and South. It takes us through the esoteric accounts of a mythical Golden Age and explores the many tales of an ancient Arctic race. Arktos covers research into past and pos- sible future tilts of the earth's axis, and the causes of planetary catastrophes. Professor Godwin explores the origins of modern neo-Nazi ideology, its ‘polar’ inspi- ration, and links with other occult myths— Hitler's survival, German bases in Antarctica, UFOs, the Hollow Earth, and the hidden kingdoms of Agartha and Shambala. His thesis is scholarly and responsible in approach, and his extensive bibliography is arich resource for polarphiles, Fascinating reading for the curious!
