Knowledge is one of the important components that took human beings onto the path of civilization, enlightenment, and modernization. It is interesting how humans have used knowledge as a tool to develop from hunting to gathering society and civilizations. This book covers the dynamics and progression of knowledge in human society from the historical perspective right from the Stone Age period. Concepts and techniques associated with knowledge such as patterns, exchanges, ideas, symbols, the concept of individuality, society, and essence of truth, etc., are widely discussed by Childe. The most amazing part of this book is Childe’s personal beliefs, which form the major part of this volume.
