About the book Lost Treasures

For the first time a book accessible to the general public lays out the facts and causes of the destruction of the common heritage of mankind. Since the demolition of the Buddhas of Bamiyan in 2001 we might assume such destruction is a recent phenomenon and the unavoidable consequence of war, while in reality it is often intentional, caused by intolerance - religious, racial or political -; or by greed.

The deliberate erasure of humanity's memory has been going on for millennia. To help the reader comprehend not only the causes, but the extent of destruction, the loss of heritage is quantified.

Lost Treasures does not read as a tragic tale but instead as an optimistic call for tolerance, realising there is no need to agree with others to admire their achievements. We cannot change the past, but we can learn from it. Enlightened, we all can embrace the common heritage of mankind.
