From a 2011 review by Tartarus: "We Are Not the First is a fascinating book that shows that while the modern world has made great progress in science and technology, all of these achievements had already been done long ago. As this book shows, many ancient societies knew many things that were only rediscovered historically rather recently. They knew that matter is comprised of atoms, that the earth is round and revolves around the sun, that the earth rotates on its axis, that the light of the moon is reflected sunlight, that the moon has mountains and craters, that the moon caudes tides, that meteors come from outer space, that the Milky Way is a vast conglomeration of stars, that the stars are at an 'immeasurable' distance from us, that life evolves through natural processes, and much much more. Many ancient scholars even suspected the existence of extraterrestrial life. Furthermore, the advanced scientific knowledge of the ancients was often put to practical use in the form of technologies that were supposedly only invented in modern times. Advanced metal forging, advanced medical science, guns, nuclear weapons, electricity, aircraft, space travel, robots, computers, radio, television, socialist economic systems, and more. Technologies and scientific concepts equalling and even surpassing those of our modern world were in use in ages long past. Certain things such as alchemy, antigravity and interplanetary and interstellar space travel represent examples of ancient science and technology exceeding modern science and technology. But how could this be so? Andrew Tomas suggests that perhaps an alien race came to Earth in prehistoric times and taught early humans to use advanced science and technology. Some may consider this as tainting the book's value, as the whole 'ancient astronaut' concept is often associated with such sloppy and biased reasearchers as Erich von Daniken and Zechariah Sitchin. But Andrew Tomas is nothing like this. His suggestion of ancient astronauts is based not so much on the fact that there were ancient 'ahead of their time' technologies and scientific ideas, but more on the fact that many ancient legends speak of visitors from the stars. Furthermore, unlike people such as Daniken, Tomas does not denigrate human achievement and potential. On the contrary, he seems to view humanity a clever and resourceful. And most of the book is not about aliens, but about advanced science and technology in ancient human cultures. The existence of advanced science and technology in ancient times is quite well supported by the evidence. Irregardless of whether one thinks the source of this is a lost high-tech human civilisation, visitors from the stars, or a combination of both, one thing is still clear: We are not the first.".
