For four centuries people have searched for it: in mansions, palaces, and libraries; in riverbeds, sheep pens, and partridge coops; and in the corridors of the mind. Yet no trace of the Bard's manuscripts, books, or letters has ever been found.

For a long time, our scientists thought man was of comparatively modern origin - that mankind has possibly existed 50 thousand years. It is now conceded we may possibly have been on Earth for as long as a million years, or even more.

The most famous equation in modern physics is Einstein's E=MC2, which, if we pause for a second, is as mysterious as anything written in our ancient religious scriptures and measurably more radical.
