I received an advance review copy of this book in exchange for an honest review. This book is about the Indus Valley Civilization and the study of the script they used with the hope of finding out more about the Indus Valley people, their way of life, and what happened to them. They had built a very advanced civilization that suddenly and mysteriously disappeared without a trace. They used a script of signs and symbols similar to the scripts used by other ancient civilizations. The author gives us examples of the script with comparisons and how it evolved through time. He also includes the meaning of each symbol. The author has done an incredible amount of background research and writes this book with an easy to read fluid style in narrative form. I found this book very informative and recommend it. ( )
